Hey everyone! It's been a while.

So, I had several matters to discuss, and I thought I'd combine them all in one big post.

First of all, I wanted to address the delay of my story I started last October, "Stoni's Journey." I initially intended to wrap it up in December, but alas, that never happened. For those who have been anticipating this story, I'm sorry to say that it is postponed indefinitely. My life is really really busy right now, and I barely have time to post on this forum. I do intend to finish the story, but don't expect it to be completed any time soon.

Secondly, I wanted to comment about the Rex vs. Spino debates that have been deemed "dead" by many members of this forum. I agree that these debates do cause problems on this forum, but I noticed that several newer members were participating in this debate, only to have older members shut the debates down. I wanted to propose a solution. There is another forum, http://jurassicworld.org/, that is lacking in members (less than 30). The entire forum is basically dead because there is NO activity. Myself, @Dinosaur.Fanatic, and another Scified member here, @jurassicparkour, are members there, and it is a solid site with good information. I'd like to suggest that fans who are interested in the debate take it to that sight, where the lack of activity will be better for arguing, and so that it will not cause problems on this forum. Just putting that out there.

Third, what do you all think about this recent fan art?

And lastly, if you could have one element of your choice for JW, whether it be the return of an old character, the appearance of a specific dinosaur, a fight between predators, or a scene involving specific characters, what would that be?

Welcome back man!

For the Rex vs Spino debates, I agree on taking it to a new forum. I'm tired of it personally and would be happy to see it go somewhere else. Then i won't feel obligated to participate, haha.

Cool fan art and I'd want the return of Tyrannosaurus rex.

Awesome, welcome back.

It is pretty dead, true, but we say one thing against Spino, and boom! Someone gets offended (because we said something against something that's been dead for 100 million years) and proceeds to call us biased, fanboys, manipulating our misleading opinions, and so on.

That fan art is cool.

I'll be completely honest (I don't care what anyone else says), I want to see Rexy kick the crap out of a Spinosaurus (that's one thing I really want to see, maybe it could be Rex's revenge, or Horner's redemption).

HEY... I was wondering where you went!!

as well not to be rude, godzillasaurus, But its comments like that that start wars... But I must agree...

As an older member (I think theres about 4 of us on who joined before JP-3D came out who are constantly online...) The spino and rex debate flares its head quite constantly... I'm going to quote myself... " Im not targeting spino fans, Im not targeting rex fans, Im targeting the people who think they need to add there arrogant oppinions... It then becomes fact vs oppinon where fact is dropped and picked up by someones oppinion, which is barely ever correct..."

I might give that site a looksie...

Also Thats really awesome fan art... I hope JW follows something like the jurassic park idea...

Life cannot be contained, it breaks walls, crashes through barriers sometimes painfully, but uh... Life uh, finds a way

And what proof do you have to say I was reffering to you Zillasaurus?

To this:

I say this:

And learn how to post images, learn to post the images so it's easier for us to respond to your retarded insults.

Welcome back!!

I agree that we should move the debates.

Amazing fan-art.

And if Bob Peck wasn't dead ,R.I.P., I'd like him to come back as Robert Muldoon in the same way as Thorn's life by MrHappy, but since that's not happening I would like to see Rexy come back.

Welcome back, bro. I agree that the JW.org forums need some new life. As for my JW wish, I think I'd like to see Troodon as the new villain.
