The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

"Aww, spoil all the fun" Fang said with a slight little pout

"So, um, where's the Mayor at?" Haley asked Stripetail as she looked around.

"Oh Ms Bellum, what do we do now?" the Mayor asked Ms Bellum, whom in turn, sat down next to the Mayor.

Haley flew over to them "If it's any help, perhaps you could come along with us as well"

"Why thank you, but my place is here, it can still be fixed, city hall hasn't been completely destroyed, now, Ms Bellum, get some money together to fix this place up" the Mayor replied back.

"I'm afraid there's no more money, you gave the last of it away to them" Ms Bellum told the Mayor.

"Oh..." was all the Mayor had said rather sadly.

"A bus huh? I know just the place, I'll be back" Haley told everyone else as she flew off.

"Where is she going?" Fang asked Jake.

Jake however, just shrugged "Not sure actually, but if she can get us a bus, then at least it'll be something"

It wasn't even long till a bus had pulled up and out walked Haley, followed by Bloo and Mac, with the bus driver being Frankie.

Haley looked to everyone else "Everyone, may I introduce you to Frankie, Mac and Bloo from Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, you know, the building that Madame Foster owns"

"Sure, jump on in" Frankie said as everyone piled into the bus and all buckled up.

Jake looked to Scooby "What about your ride? Aren't you also going to take that too?" he asked the great dane.

Zim, Gir, Squidward, Gaz and Haley also took a seat each as well.

Someone is going to have to drive it" dixie agreed. "We'll follow the bus then. Scooby, Dee were going in the mystery machine.. We'll follow the bus to Yosemite

_
 Other characters began to climb on the bus.. HongKong Phooey, Captaincaveman, and Dynomutt, all looking like they hadn't had a good nights slep in a while ' rust showed on nearly all Dynomutt's joint
_ So is this the bus to the wharf? Phooey asked
_
no, this bus is headed to Yosemite national park. "er.. why are we going there? Phooey asked ' Is it about the laffalympics I was in the games awhile back, but my kung fu isn't what it used to be. I lost my civilan job.. so I'm stuck in this costume all day..

"Yosemite National Park?" Frankie asked "Yeah, I know where that is, you guys can follow me if you wish" she told mainly Scooby.

Both Mac and Bloo also buckled up "So, what are these games all about?" Mac asked rather curiously.

"Well, whatever they are, they sound so boring..." Bloo added in with a slight groan.

Frankie soon started to get going with the bus, driving onwards as Mac spoke to Stripetail "I'm going to have to think about that one, but thanks for the offer anyway"

"Are there any pizes? Like a paddleball!?" Bloo decided to then ask.

Bloo just let off a groan as he looked to Mac "Are you seriously considering doing those games"

"Yeah, it sounds like it might be fun" Mac replied back as Haley spoke up from behind them.

"I know what you mean, I'm going to be in the games, on Yogi's team" she told the two of them.

winnie curled up beside Woddy, who put his arm around her
_ Stripetail started counting the money in his bag, there was hundreds of thousands inside, each bill was a hundred. "So the mayor gave us several million assuming each bag contains the same..' He thought to himself 'this should be more than enough to cover busses for the teams, security and other expenses..
_dixie settled back against the passenger seat " the sky above them was cloudy with occassionally sun peaking though
 dee tried to make herself comfortable on the back seat.. ' so are we going to stop somewhere for the night/ " she asked
 "Dee its 3:17" dixie pointed to the digital clock.. " i know, but i was just making plans for the night.. '

Frankie tapped the fuel gauge on the bus "Sorry guys, but we need to stop off and get some gas" she told everyone as she pulled into the next gas station.

Haley decided to step out for some fresh air at least as Frankie spoke to her "Try not to go too far alright?"

"Don't worry, I wont" Haley told her and flew upwards to stretch her wings properly.
