Just like Telson said

~LOOKS~ was the key word

I'm messing with you Sam, since you've done this before :D
Nevermind, apparently everyone took it WAY too seriously...
Remember, you are my riding buddy, and I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.
Now, everyone, you can shut up now!

LOL! No doubt...

The next T to achieve G.rosea level of availability! Are these guys like really easy to breed? I'm seeing a lot of ppl posting pics of mating this species and of mature males loading palps lately.

Since I started this with my mild poke, I'll toss in my 2 cents...

Sam, the issue is context. If what you meant to say was something along the lines of "That sperm web looks similar to a moulting mat, cool", then *that* is what you had to say to avoid being misunderstood. The most common way of interpreting a "It looks like..." statement without any further context is an attempted explanation of what is going on.

So, when you said what you said, regardless of your intended meaning, it certainly read like you were trying to explain that the spider might possibly be moulting. End of story for why people made a little fun with your statement.

As for calming down, I never saw anybody get riled up until Telson called some very gentle ribbing "slamming". The only big deal was created between someone else's ears.

My son and I called it "T in a sleeping bag!" My male rosea laid on his back for the longest time, and his whole opisthoma was covered. It looked like he was camping!!=D

You want to de-obfuscate that statement?

do you mean: u should take samples of the sperm and put it under a MICROSCOPE just to see how it looks?

otherwise, that statement is so obtuse as to be unreadable!
