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

Updates to my website

Howdy everyone!

I made a couple of changes to my LBT Songs website.

First of all, I set up a guestbook.  Feel free to sign in!  I'd love to see how many names we can get into it!  

Secondly, I added a Shoutbox.  This box can be used for leaving messages, comments, or for basic chatting.  Please, keep it clean though.  if I find much vulgarity in my shoutbox, I'm closing it down. :P:

Anywho, here's the link:

Another update!

I have posted direct links to all of my MIDI files on my lyrics site, next to the titles of the songs, within easy reach. B)

I saw those updates when I had to grab the lyrics for Always There yesterday.  Nice changes, but I fail to see what good the shoutbox is for.  Seems like a place for spammers...that's just my take on it.

If it begins to get spammed, the shoutbox will be gone.  Until then, I'm hoping perhaps somebody will find it useful.

Indeed though, that is a good point, and I shall keep an eye on that shoutbox.

Yeah, just the other day on my Petrie music video some two people were going at it because someone wrote "oh my God" and it went into religion....entirely off topic.  So it can happen...and I just can't police things that often.
