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

Personally I would find it kind of sad to have LBT characters hold weapons.
Why would you find that sad? :blink: All it is to me is expressing that the person has a love for both Land Before Time and japanese swords, and wanted to show them both mixed together. Do you find it sad that the yoshi in my avatar is holding a weapon? (Hard to tell since it's pretty shrunken down, but he is.)

In fact, if I were to actually get a tattoo showing my love for Land Before Time (or any kind of unconventional show), I probably would get one of the characters holding some kind of weapon. Think of it as almost a safeguard. As much as I do like the Land Before Time, I am not going to outright blantantly show the world that I like it with a tattoo of it. The added weapon would be something very conventional that would, in a  way, counterbalance what the tattoo really represents which could be seen as very unconventional. Of course it's also, like you said, a matter of taste. I happen to find the idea of mixing weapons with innocent, harmless cartoon characters very cool and interesting :p (It is one reason I am such a huge fan of Kingdom Hearts.) Still, I can't see why you would think that it is sad to see LBT characters holding weapons.

Hmm.. I share the view of not liking land before time + weapons.

Come on, it's a kids show, not james bond :p

I always thought your Yoshi was holding a drumstick :D

Ok, now that you mention it, it does look like a drumstick :lol: I should probably work on editing it some

And yea, I guess it is all a matter of taste, because I find the idea just very very cool :p

Well, Alex, I wish you luck in getting that tattoo!  Depending on the size, and if you're getting it on your arm, I'd say you'd be under the needle for about two hours or so.  Bringing your iPod with you definitely helps!

Baaah. I hadn't even thought about that.

Someone said it's going to be like $250, though. Which isn't that bad, I guess. I might be able to get it done as soon as Tuesday. Atleast I hope I can.
