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

New dinosaur species discovered

A new species of dinosaur was recently discovered in southern Chile. This newly discovered dinosaur is part of the ankylosaur family and is officially called "Stegouros". What makes this species very distinctive is that its tail is lined by a series of wide blades, resembling those war clubs that were used by Aztec warriors.



For those of us here in the LBT fandom, I sure would like to see someone write a fanfic that includes an appearance of one of these strange new dinos. We've seen Spike-tails and Club-tails, but a Blade-tail would definitely be a new one.

Hmmmm.... now that does sound like a good idea for a fanfic prompt...  :thinking I will add it to next year's list.  :yes


Go ahead and check out my fanfictions, The Seven Hunters, Songs of the Hunters, and Menders Tale.

Ba gawd he's got a macuahuitl for a tail!

That's super cool. Hopefully he starts appearing in dinosaur media, cause he's got a very distinctive feature that'd help him stand out from the crowd

Wow! How interesting! :)littlefoot

I agree with @aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) — it would be cool to see this species earn a place among the “mainstream” dinosaurs! I think he’d be able to hold his own!

And @rhombus that could work great for a fanart prompt, too!
