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

Greetings from Finland!

Peaceful Good Friday to each and everyone, I´m Mikael,
26 years old dude living in the northern corner of Europe.

I discovered this jolly good forum today, and I´m most delighted to
find so many fans of LBT here.

I just finished reviving a part of my childhood by having
a full LBT marathon, watched all 13 movies in only 3 days!

I still remember when my mum took me to a theatre to
watch the original movie when I was seven years old.
Needless to say, this movie had a huge impact on me,
and I was already an enormous dinosaur fan back then.

Even though twenty years has passed,  The Land Before Time
still touches me on a level 99% of movies cannot do. The characters
are wonderful and lovable, and you care for them as
if they were real persons. It´s truly a magnificent emotional
rollercoaster of epic proportions.

Unlike many others, I never got to grow up with the sequels,
as I got involved with them at much later age (around 2006),
so my emotional investment in those movies is much smaller.
Nevertheless, I think they still make a respectable effort in
expanding the LBT universe, and provide many enjoyable moments.

I look forward to chat with you guys in the near future! :wave

~ Mikael

Welcome to the GoF! We go us another one!  :D

So, from Finland/Suomi is it? If I'm not mistaken, have some from there already. There's always room for one more. XD
