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

The Hydroplant I'm working for just issued the need for new divers to go down to the deeps and fix problems down there. I've been considered for the position. I don't know how this will impact my activity here or my writing project, so this is just a heads up.

Tomorrow, I'm off to a physical and then to be evaluated. If I clear both I'll be given lessons and made a certified diver.

I wish you the best of luck! It is a dangerous job, but well paid I assume.

Thanks. Oh yeah, it's dangerous. We haven't lost any divers in the thirty years my mom has worked here, though, but there's always a first. I'm not too worried, though. The thirty years of losing no divers and all that.

Yep, diving pays well, and I get to keep my other position as a Tech Repair Man when not diving.
