Giant theropods overview thread

[Infinity Blade]

It's funny how robust Apatosaurus and Brontosaurus are compared to Diplodocus - relatively close cousins, but the disparity in bulk is so great that a 29.8 meter Apatosaurus outweighs a 32 meter Diplodocus by a factor of 2.6

Similar to a previous post, I just love the amount of 50 plus tonne sauropods nowadays.
Apatosaurus - up to 106 tonnes
French Monster - up to 101 tonnes
Barosaurus - up to 100 tonnes
Puertasaurus - up to 100 tonnes
Antarctosaurus - up to 100 tonnes
Notocolossus - up to 76 tonnes
Mamenchisaurus sinocanadorum - 75 tonnes
Argentinosaurus - 73 tonnes
Huanghetitan - 73 tonnes
Andesaurus - 70 tonnes
Fusuisaurus - 70 tonnes
Alamosaurus - 70 tonnes
Patagotitan - 69 tonne subadult
Sauroposeidon - 60 plus tonnes
Ruyangosaurus - 60 tonnes
Brachiosaurus - 50-60 tonnes
Xinjiangtitan - 57 tonnes
Giraffatitan - 52 tonnes
Futalognkosaurus - 50 tonnes
Argyrosaurus - 50 tonnes
Dreadnoughtus - 48.4 tonnes as a juvenile
There are probably loads I'm missing but I'm sure you get the idea.

My dude, you've already gone on about how much more robust Apatosaurus is compared to Diplodocus in this thread. And you flat out admitted that you made a similar post to your 50+ tonne sauropod. How many times have I had to tell you to not do this? How many more times will I have to do it?

It's one thing if you say any one of these things just once in this topic. Even if people don't pay much heed to them it's fine to mention these things just once. Heck, it's only slightly different if, on one occasion, you feel like you've said the same thing before but can't remember (and are too lazy to check; though, tbh, the search function in this thread helps a lot in this regard) and accidentally post the same thing again. But it's another thing to do this on multiple occasions, sometimes even deliberately posting something similar.

I'm not entirely sure why I've had to bring this up with you so many times. Forgetfulness can only get you so far as an excuse; I certainly don't remember most of my past posts in this thread either, yet I don't think I repeat effectively the same thing in multiple posts in this thread. Do you just really like what you're saying? There are a few posts I do remember making in this thread that I do really like myself (the one that comes to mind is my post about old naturalist illustrations of animals). But that post had its chance to get people's attention, and now it's gone. When that happens, it's time to move on from it.

Well, perhaps.

I'll search more.

[creature386]

Search more? You can remember every single detail that happened on Carnivora 365 days ago, but you can't even remember the endless repetition of your own posts and people's reaction to them?

[dinosauria101]

These things are faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar more groundbreaking than any of that

[Infinity Blade]

But that is neither here nor there when it comes to what you post on this forum. Your gripes with people on Carnivora were then, the way you conduct yourself here on WoA is now.

[dinosauria101]

It's pretty much done at this point. 99% of the old stuff is done and over with except for recruiting with.

How? How? A lot of these events whose anniversaries you celebrate boil down to "People didn't like my matchups one year ago".
How is this more important than conflicts which have been ongoing for months?

[dinosauria101]

It's reflecting on how bad things were then and how they are now good on WoA. 99 percent done now.

[Infinity Blade]

You sure you can't just be 100% done now?

[dinosauria101]

This isn't going to cause any big uproars or make Greg Rhodes angry or anything. It is just a reflection on the Orwellian vs Democracy of both sites.

How about we discuss something else, like today's topic?

I'm glad it won't. Nevertheless we are tired of hearing about it. You've been speaking prevalently about this topic for what? A year now? I don't care how close we are to the alleged end of it, if you can drop it now, please do so.

How about we discuss something else, like today's topic?

I'm not even sure which one you're referring to.

[dinosauria101]

I meant the first post today.

And if you really really insist, then sure.

no, the ramblings of a 15 year old are not groundbreaking. I hate to be the bearer of bad news.

[dinosauria101]

This is IMO the nicest Carcharodontosaurus skeletal out there. Anyone agree?

[Ceratodromeus]

Im just starting to see this pattern of "bigger = better" with you more clearly by the day. at least it isn't 14m long now.
