(Sorry I haven't been on as much. Summer was abnormally busy for me.)

New member approved, and joke appreciated. (Utahraptor was an awesome dino, and my second favorite.)

Speaking of the 'raptors, people insisting that they look way cooler without feathers is starting to get on my nerves a bit. As we (should) know in this club, many types of theropods had feathers. I was wondering what side you guys are on in this. My opinion: Feathered dinos are way scary. Just look at this: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/87/Tyrannosaurus_rex_mmartyniuk.png


As for Amphicoelias, I have definitely heard of it, as well as read about it. From what I recall, estimates of its size range from 130 to 190 feet (about 40-57 meters), making it the largest dinosaur and the largest animal ever to walk on land.

Not buying the vegetarian therapod thing lol. Why would they evolve sharp teeth if they were herbivorous?

Also, did you hear that T-Rex was proven to be a predator?

Well, SOME theropods (for example, the oviraptorosaurs, therizinosaurs, etc.) actually did evolve to be herbivorous, or at least omnivorous.

Also, if I recall correctly, there was never any doubt about Tyrannosaurus being a predator. The only one who actually thought otherwise was John Horner. Besides, it's extremely likely that T. rex was a scavenger as well as a hunter, because opportunistic hunting happens quite a bit today, and there's no reason why the tyrannosaurs would pass up a free meal.

sorry, I've been inactive, got school and stuff, and though I was active on the forums, I barely surfed for more than a few minutes or so, and I kind of forgot about the club too, soo......

Anyway, would do you think about the two new fossil pokemon lines? Personally, I was kind of disppointed with the T-rex final evo. I thought the sauropod looked familiar with the sail-like structures on its neck, so, perhaps it's based of Amargasaurus?

It is indeed an Amargasaurus. Its name, Aurorus, kind of gave it away. Its ability should be interesting, though its typing won't make it popular online. Regarding the new tyrannosaur, I have to say I'm impressed. It's probably my new favorite Pokemon, at least design-wise, and through my (ongoing) revisions of my X and Y team, it always was on the list. What can I say? I'm a sucker for theropods! :p

Edit: Woohoo, two pages!
