Request: Breeding reports!

Mr. Mordax — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 01:16:28 GMT

I've noticed a lot of people posting about scorpions popping, and a surprisingly small increase in the number of breeding reports. So go ahead and post, people! I think these reports are a great resource for people who are planning on breeding a species or suddenly find one giving birth and don't know what to expect. Post as little or as much as you have -- everything you know about the female up until she gave birth to the time that the babies hit 2I and dispersed. Even if it was ...

Spam Warning!!

Mr. Mordax — Sun, 10 Aug 2008 15:15:44 GMT

A few members have been getting a suspicious link sent to them via MSN instant messenger that appears to be coming from other members -- if this pops up in your MSN, do NOT click the link! I cannot verify what it may do to your computer, but at the very least it is spam and probably contains spyware. Remember, never download anything that looks vaguely suspicious. Just so you know what to look for, here's the URL that's been going around so you know what NOT to click on (I disabled ...

I pulled in the enclosures and started finding one by one DEAD.

~Abyss~ — Fri, 04 Apr 2008 04:08:28 GMT

Yessir the chatbox is back. Don't know exactly how long it's been gone for or how it disapered. It might have something to do with our server here because according to the ADMIN history it was never deleted. Anyways I will be making a pole to see if you guys want it in the portal as well...again.
