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

I know you don't have the same ties to them Kopa that I do, but I will not  permit you, Vitani or anyone else to harm them. am I clear?' he then turned to Vitani " my dear Vitani, what got intio you? You know that Timon and Pummba are my oldest friends..

"Sorry, sorry..." Vitani apologized regretfully.

Suddenly, some laughter was heard. Kiara, Kovu, and Vitani's faces lit up.

"It's the trio..." Kiara smiled.

"Great to see ya again, all 4 of ya!" Banzai smiled, Shenzi standing in front of him.

"We got along," Kovu admitted.

So you guys arere the hyenas.. Kopa said " Oh i remember you you would run into and Nuteri from time to time..
- WHAT are THEY foing here? cur a sharp voice, it was Nala, who glared at the hyenas as she entered ' Like Simba, Nala did not have fond memories of the hyenas
_
Cut us a break Nala, we've moved past all that mess with Scar..is it our fault that one of his followers was as deranged as he was? Shgenzi said coldly.." we brefriended all these cubs when they were younger and wandering about..

"It's true daddy," Kiara nodded, "They didn't try to eat me or anything when I was a cub, and we got along well."

Everyone was aware it was somewhat of a bombshell for Simba to learn that both his kids were friends with the creatures who tried to kill him as a cub.

"So, can we all let bygones be bygones?" Nuka asked hopefully, "It can restore these lands to absolute peace..."

Banzai turned to Shenzi, she called all the shots.

"So do you have any idea when the weddings will be?" Nuka asked Rafiki.

certainly.." Simba said we don't need any more excitement today that we've already had,, I mean Nuka reveals himself to be alive.. theres only so much one can take in a day.. you keep an eye on them kovu and stop them from causing any mischief. If they protest,m pull rank on them " I'm a prince and if you don;t do as I say..' They'll figure it out..

"Belive me," Kovu smirked, "I can get them to listen." the male adolescent's powers to intimidate rule breakers was to be admired.

my dear, i just think you said that in order to see how easily you could sway my son..once he becomes king, he will be much harder to sway, becuause of royal traditions, and decrees and all that good boring stuff that Zazu bored into me when i was a cub. i just wanted to rule, i didn't know how hard it wouldn't actually be running a kingdom. i really doubt you'd actually eat timon or pummba, yes they can be annoying but they are my friends, as long as they live, they are under my protection, even if i am no longer king..

"You raised two great cubs Simba," Vitani smiled, giving the king a friendly pat on the shoulder. "I'm really liking Kopa, and Kovu's lucky to have Kiara...."
