Yeah I play Ark, kind of like Jurassic Park, and I’m very glad most of these giants no longer exist.

What a load of cobblers - it was just another way for you to abuse your power and indulge your bizarre hatred of me and have a little dig at the same time.

As soon as your best troll chum turned up the thread turned to shit as usual.

I always loved it when people posted stuff in here.

Charlie was spot on.



No.

I post my own opinions often enough - it's a thread for the latest discoveries that people may want to read - not for dumb obsessed wankers like yourself to ruin. :bored:


Posting decent stuff not trolling me like the bag I replied to - try thinking about context and you know it as well because you are trolling me now.

Pitiful. :bored:

Why do you keep derailing this thread?

You're behaving like it's your own piece of property. It's bad enough you spouting your shit everywhere else. You've even started it here now. It's for everyone to contribute to!

Meanwhile on topic....

I genuinely had no idea about giving Bees a sugar water pick-me-up that Gabby explained. Thanks for that Gabby. I've just tried it on one looking all out on my patio slabs. Sure enough in a matter of minutes it looked revived, and flew off. You really do learn some interesting things on here.

Thanks so much Charlie for your replies on here last night when I was offline. :wubbers:

Skeletal size comparison (amongst others) of the four largest/longest known theropods - Tyrannosaurus, Giganotosaurus, Carcharadontosaurus and Spinosaurus.

Notice how much more robust the Tyrant was in comparison to the other land sharks - a literal living tank.

The species was truly the peak of an evolutionary path 160 millions of years in the making that had only one goal - to brutally refine the art of hunting and killing.

A combination of sheer size, physical power, bone crushing jaws, railroad spike teeth, speed and a remarkably keen set of senses (including eyesight far superior than any bird of prey so that fucks up the scene in the first movie) all alongside a massive advanced avian brain - simply unmatched in terrestrial history. :thumbsup:

The skeletal (without gastralia), and featherless rex of the Jurassic World movies is a disgrace given the current research. :shake head:

It wasn't trolling. You just took exception to someone posting some interesting stuff and got all modish and huffy.

So, and not being bothered to google. Would those giant sloths have gone after humans?

Sloths are naturally slow creatures. The answer is no.

Humans have the unique ability to run prey down to exhaustion over a period of time, it might take him a couple of years but he's going to get you in the end... :ooer:
