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

Caption Away. A friend sent this to me. He swears that the image has not been altered in any way.

Cue a hyperactive, pink, poofy-haired, fourth-wall-breaking cartoon pony popping in from nowhere and laughing hysterically in the tree’s “face”.

Honestly, with all the MLP fans on this forum, I’m amazed no one’s used this reference yet. :p

My friend says it's real, and this would not be the first odd thing that almost defies belief that he's found. It's like one of the mean Oz trees on crack!

I'll bet my shoes that tree is even scarier at night... :unsure:
Petra is a variant of the Greek name "Petros" meaning "strong" or "rock." Andi is a variant of the Greek name "Andy" meaning "masculine" or "brave." Therefore, I am tremendously brave and strong! :lol

Someone needs to shoot a scene in a horror film there immediately.

The other proof is pollution, which makes nature unhappy!

How M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening might have actually been scary, if this tree featured.

That movie was kinda horrible. But yeah maybe pollution was the cause of that.

Actually, that tree is really an ent participating in an ugly face contest; they take a long time to judge those things, you know. :p

That tree looks like it has teeth of some kind.
