Molting painful?

[Scorpendra]

is someone holding a gun to your head so you read this topic, Phil?

if Ts had a nervous system like a human's, i'd bet they'd have constant panic attacks because they'd be afraid to molt.

Whatever. I fail to see how someone who can barely write can 'tell it like it is' as coherently as you.

If you knows alls whys don'ts yous adds somethings to this subject?

Thankfully, I've added you to my ignore list so I don't have to waste my time on someone who obviously has an intellect somewhere close to cheese.

Aww come on guys. Don't respond to 'foot stompers'. That is how threads get locked. There is nothing at all wrong with having different opinions on things, but please be civil to one another.

I think this would make a nice sticky too. There are more links/information from different sources than I have seen before. I was quite enjoying the read.

I always imagined molting to be something along the lines of giving birth. Exhausting, but not all that painful. (unless of course you count back labor LOL)

Interesting how the signature talks about not bullying, yet he seems to insist on bullying us to stop talking about something we actually know about.

Phil, you do not have to read these posts. If you don't find them interesting, skip them. Your comments about finding this dull are actually quite insulting to those who take time to research the topic. We've invested resources into this because WE find it interesting.

Please move on if you don't like it.

Sorry people, off topic I know but I just have to say a really big thank you to Cheshire for his above comment. After what is turning out to be a really crap week for me, you have put a really big grin on my face and cheered me up no end.
Thanks and all the best
Chris

i for one have done alot of reading and thinking over this subject because of this thread. and i have to agree, if you think its boring dont read it. the whole point of being on a forum is to get input and ideas from others that may put things in a new perspective for you.

That, sir, is a beautiful thing. If you need a proof-reader or something similar, give me a yell.

I for one, found the thread fascinating. (Sorry Phil) We've got some extremely knowledgeable, well researched posts based on SCIENCE (as well as some opinions based on um, nada). CURRENT science (not 1840 science) is the best we can do with regard to separating fact from anthropomorphic "I think" statements, and we've got several EXTREMELY patient posters here who've done an excellent, and very respectful job of trying to make that distinction clear, while at the same time answering the original question. I vote to make this a sticky. :clap:

Pay attention to the articles forum. That's all I'm going to say

I had to borrow a space in this article while checking sources for...um...something else.
