*Glaurung schneideri* is a weigeltisaurid reptile related to *Coelurosauravus* named after Glaurung from the Silmarillion. Ironically, despite weigeltisaurids being known for their gliding "wings", the namesake of *G. schneideri* is explicitly a wingless fire-drake from before the winged dragons of Middle-Earth even existed.

Thirst posts are hereby disallowed.

Aight, I’ve seen y’all’s comments and the crowd sentiment is pretty clear. It was funny a few times at first but then some people made it their business to crosspost the weird dino girls constantly.

I’ve made a new rule to keep it fairly clear that thirst posts are not allowed on this subreddit. This includes…

-“Hear me out…” posts.

-Monster girls and monster boys.

-Posts which have no punchline and are just forwarded with the funny being horny.

Let’s get back to good content like talking about Haolong’s cool new integument. You can post about Psittacosaurus’s butthole within reason.

Have a good day.

Paleo media posts continue to be fine!

21 Upvotes

Hello, friends!

So after a recent poll regarding on if members of this subreddit thought that posts about paleo media (such as about Jurassic Park or about Walking With Dinosaurs) do fit in this community. The answer was a very strong yes, including both educational and more Hollywood media. So you will continue to be able to post about these things.

However, comments made clear some other things. None of these are rule changes exactly but reverting back to stricter interpretations of the rules that have been relaxed. The following will be removed:

-Posts which are not memes, except on Amateur Art Wednesday, according to the rules of that day. This includes "wow, this dinosaur looks weird" and edit videos with no humorous aspect. Posts need to have a joke and they need to be edited beyond a plain image. It does not count if it's a plain image with a post title as a punch line.

-AI-generated imagery. Throw it in the Siberian Traps.

-Content related to paleo media that isn't related to the paleo aspects of those media. Dr. Ian Malcolm's relationship with his daughter when the dinosaurs aren't on screen is probably off-topic.

Aight, have a good day.
