(Warning: Enormous amounts of pent-up butthurt and rage are contained below. Also, when the mini-essay mentions "you all" or "you people," it refers to the feathernazi community in general)
You know what sucks?
The fact that according to you guys, anything that has non-feathered dinosaurs is made by 'awesomebros' or 'feather haters' and is totally worthless. Because how DARE anyone create a likeness of a creature that's been extinct for millions of years and take artistic liberties with it.
As a response, you featherfans have come up with... nothing. Nothing in #buildabetterfaketheropod could hold a candle to the I-rex; not a single creature could have even played the same role it did, let alone 'improve' Jurassic World. A powerful message about how man's hurried, slipshod attempts to play God without considering the consequences only results in monstrous vestiges of the natural world's ancient majesty? Pffft! Who needs that message, which is becoming increasingly rare in this day and age? Every single dinosaur in Jurassic World NEEDS to have feathers, dammit! Otherwise, nobody will know that dinosaurs had them, even though most dinosaur books published these days depict them with such integuement!
I've looked far and wide for any trace of these 'awesomebros' you speak of-surely, they must be an ever-present scourge to inspire such hatred! You know what I found? Jack. Shit. Ark's fans are actually pretty chill about accuracy-hell, a feathered Yutyrannus is one of the biggest fan requests! The biggest, baddest creature in the game is a feathered dinosaur, for Christ's sake! The devs have already explained-very politely, might I add-why they aren't adding feathers: the story for the game wouldn't really make sense if the creatures looked exactly like the way their ancestors did. Even Jurassic World has some feathered dinosaurs now!
But you know what I did find? Page after page of shit-talking... from you assholes. http://steamcommunity.com/app/346110/discussions/0/523890681424768021/ http://steamcommunity.com/app/346110/discussions/0/490125737466159874/ http://steamcommunity.com/app/346110/discussions/0/481115363855241626/ http://steamcommunity.com/app/346110/discussions/0/405690850604928755/ http://steamcommunity.com/app/346110/discussions/0/481115363855511763/
And that's just with the Ark forums! I've seen everything from a tumblr group called Ark-hate (Now taken down) to this asshole: http://titanlizard.deviantart.com/art/Trolling-with-fanboys-547401232 http://titanlizard.deviantart.com/art/Meme-time-Primeval-Giganotosaurus-552280951 (He also put up a death threat on Facebook to anyone who likes 'generic scaled dinosaurs,' as he put it. Because how dare people have an opinion.) I confronted him about it, but he basically put his hands over his ears while singing loudly, blocked me, and started a smear campaign against me, calling me 'the most hated person in the paleo community.'
Than there's Paleo-fail, a tumblr blog run by someone who clearly has a very large stick permanently wedged up his/her anus, because he/she nitpicks fucking EVERYTHING. Warhammer dinosaurs, old Chinese rubber dinos, everything. Oddly enough, though, I've suggested several pieces of 'art' to him/her featuring horrific feathered dinosaurs, but they never even get acknowledged. OH, GEE, I WONDER WHY?
Oh, you want more? I've got quite the examples of hypocrisy under my belt.
Spoiler: click to toggle
Then there are the games and films you people creamed yourselves over because fethurz. Let's see now: The Isle's refused to pay their texture artist and fired her when she asked why, comparing her to a bloodsucking flea, The Stomping Land took everyone's money and ran, Saurian's dev team is made up of elitist asshats, and Dinosaur Island's feathered T-rex, the animal that you claimed 'we DESERVED', was a technicolor nightmare that did nothing significant except fail to eat an ear-gratingly annoying brat. Yeah, and you say that inaccurate games are bad. At least Ark's team isn't an endless bouquet of dicks.
My conclusion to all of this: there is no such thing as an 'awesomebro' and there never was-it's a strawman you people made up as an excuse to keep on bitching about how you're so 'oppressed' when you were clearly the ones doing the oppressing. You keep looking for fanboys when the biggest ones were looking at you in the mirror. The 'war' between scaled and feathered dinosaur fans never happened-it was just you assholes bashing anyone who disagreed with you.
This whole stupid thing needs to stop. Who cares if a dinosaur has feathers or not? A dinosaur is awesome whether or not it has integument. Does a Triceratops need quills on its butt to stab a T-rex? Hell no! A non-feathered T-rex is just as deadly as a feathered one, and a feathered Deinonychus is just as effective a predator as a scaled one.
But don't take my word for it; take it from someone who's far more eloquent than me: http://feralstormraptor.deviantart.com/journal/Paleoart-and-Constructive-Criticism-561014005 http://feralstormraptor.deviantart.com/journal/ARK-isn-t-a-problem-562466561 http://feralstormraptor.deviantart.com/journal/Alright-my-ultimate-2-cents-566812884 http://feralstormraptor.deviantart.com/art/Breaking-out-from-my-society-sweet-relief-589273423 http://feralstormraptor.deviantart.com/art/It-s-sad-but-true-575266933

Quotes
Spoiler: click to toggle OctoSharkTaSaurus: WELP. HELL-O-PHANTS IT IS. Kamineigh: I was six and I had started having fantasies about this old crone dying. Sometimes by my own hand. YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING HORRIBLY WRONG IF A SIX-YEAR OLD WANTS TO KILL YOU WITH THE SAME HANDS HE JUST USED TO MAKE A BLOCK TOWER. Parasky: No, he's right, they have a medical grade walrus at most hospitals for that sort of thing. Mr Mysterio, regarding yours truly: I'm learning things about you that I'm not sure I wanted to know. HangingThief: An otologist is only as good as his walrus Stealth_Rock: We have a discord for double penetration? Ichthyander: If your eyelids are massive enough to significantly affect the path of light in space, it is time to go sleep. Mr Mysterio: Glarn-Glarn, don't... don't fuck the cave baboons. Kamineigh: They lacked wings. Instead, they went around in modified pilot's gear and beat the shit out of people using maces. Parasky: No! We will not calm down! This is a serious argument over whether or not some long dead animal is in any way similar to a group of modern animals that they are descended from! THIS. IS. SEWIOUS. Lamna: Obvious typo, I'm never going to be popular in Belgium. Trex841: Interesting point. Valid counterpoint. Self-obsessed psychotic rant. Parasky: No ties. Begin genetically modifying crows until we have organisms that roughly resemble those in the competition, and then have them fight to the death to see who wins this competition. Alternatively, Cephalian and SabrWolf could fight to the death. But at the end of the day something will be fighting to the death for my amusement to determine the winner. Yellowdrakex: Is it alright to have an irrational fear of gliding snakes? They're snakes. FROM ABOVE. Kamineigh: See, you wouldn't be in this mess if you began a bloody revolution every time your leaders showed to unsatisfactory. Zihuatanejo: Somewhere in heaven, a very groggy, very confused angel has just woken up and is trying to figure out why a boisterous Australian man is poking it with a stick. Komodo: I'm sorry but in what alternative universe would thousands of zebras be sent back in time by some sort of illegal time travel group to change history and preparing them by making gigantic working animatronic allosaurs? Seriously, why? Parasky: Maybe y'all should move to America, where you can flex your freedom muscles. Sir Spookums: It's a game about children catching super powered monsters, stuffing them in tiny balls, and battling other strangers' monsters. What about that makes sense in regards to anything, mister Kam? Des Orages: Yi qi. Just when you think you've seen it all, nature screws us over once more. Kaminiegh: This is clearly an inaccurate statement. I'd never challenge the authority of an admin... Unless Paraksytron stubbed his toe and fell over. THEN I, STARSCREIGHM, WILL BECOME THE NEW LEADER OF OF THE DE-SPECU-CONS! Dragon: Is normal a good word to use for describing any of us? Velociraptor: I once dreamed I was trying to steal a flamingo. The flamingo was oddly calm about the whole situation. Kaminiegh: THAT'S IT, I'M KINKSHAMING. Flashman63: In its 4,600 year history, men from all eras, places and classes have been entering into the Library: from the ancient bearded sages of Sumeria and Chaldea, to the sober-minded Academics and Zoologists of the Victorian era, to the great warlord Cletus, an inbred hillbilly who just happened to be carrying his AR-15 around his County's Strip-Mall library. OctoSharktasaurus: Well, uh, it's a pseudo-tripedal, terrestrial subcontinental Madagascan Beaked Whale... Is that not obvious? It literally says it blatantly. Holben: Did you not add lamb's blood to your fruit juice and the crushed bones of an englishman to your salsa? It's not authentic if you don't. Kaminiegh: Shut up, Hybrid, stop ruining my chances of time-travelling and getting some Neanderthal tail! Mr Mysterio: Except maybe Canada. If ever there was a country that was hiding secret reserves of powerful alien technology, it's probably mine. HangingThief: If you answered mainly "yes," you are most likely a salamander. Unfortunately it is becoming harder and harder to tell these days. Monster: In vaguely related news, I've developed a fear of my sewing machine. WHAT ARE YOU STRANGE NEEDLEBEAST Mynxi: He sowed the seed, I merely pissed on it and saw what grew. Beetleboy: The moral of the story: never trust a catfish. Parasky: Speaking of original, note to self: write erotic classical Chinese literature fan fiction Bromance of the Three Kingdoms under pseudonym Tuck Chingle. Little: Starting playing DND, took all of an hour of gameplay until a yuri love-triangle was initiated. And no, it was not my fault. Corecin: If this is your first time with a lesbian love triangle in a DnD game than you don't even have to specify that you're starting out. Octo: Oh no now Little will enlighten with the deep and complex subject that is hentai lore. Beetleboy: It shows what kind of person I am that I'm seeking crush advice on a forum about creating fictional organisms. Corecin: I am not in the mood for looking up yuri because then the FBI agent monitoring my computer will judge me with reckless abandon. Blue_Komrade: Excuse me sir I am going to have to see if you have your membership card to the Misanthrope Club. Parasky: Ultimately, by the miracle of microbiology and biochemistry, I have accidentally added an additional month to my brew and created a Bavarian style hefeweizen rather than the American style wheat beer I planned, despite technically not having the correct ingredients. However because I wrote down what I did wrong its not a mistake it's actually science. Rebirth: I can't be the only one curious about what would happen if you spayed and neutered a male antechinus before it reached sexual maturity. Ebervalius: Laws? What kind of spooky cuckery is that? Parasky: Ah see, but that's just the thing, you thought that I thought that you thought that I had said you hadn't read it, when really I had said that you had said that you thought that I thought that you hadn't read it. So really it's Flisch's fault.

I thought not. It’s not a story the newbies would tell you. It’s a forum legend. Lyvatan was an admin of the forum, so powerful and so wise he could use science to influence the human imagination to create life… He had such a knowledge of the forum that he could even keep the ones he cared about from leaving.Speculative Evolution is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his admin power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice banned him while he was offline. Ironic. He could save others from leaving the community, but not himself.

Man, look at this furless bear!

Doesn't it look so cool? Doesn't it look so powerful? Doesn't it look like it could function just the same as a fully-furred bear? Doesn't it look like a healthy individual that could go on to foster many children that look like it?
Damn, that is one awesome bear, no fatal flaws here that could totally fuck-up this animal's well-being - Why, it looks just as good as(if not even better than) a regular bear!

That's actually something I should have covered a bit more. The thing is, we're never going to know what dinosaurs really looked like. People are allowed to take creative liberties with them. Your attitude to this, Kamineigh, is summed up by this quote: "Because apparently it's so wrong of a crime to like Jurassic World, ARK, and other inaccurate dinosaur mediums. Because apparently EVERYTHING about or involving Dinosaurs has to be made in the name of the almighty god known as "science". Because I'm apparently too much of a "Stupid, ignorant awesomebro"."

Unfortunately it is becoming harder and harder to tell these days. Monster: In vaguely related news, I've developed a fear of my sewing machine. WHAT ARE YOU STRANGE NEEDLEBEAST Mynxi: He sowed the seed, I merely pissed on it and saw what grew. Beetleboy: The moral of the story: never trust a catfish. Parasky: Speaking of original, note to self: write erotic classical Chinese literature fan fiction Bromance of the Three Kingdoms under pseudonym Tuck Chingle. Little: Starting playing DND, took all of an hour of gameplay until a yuri love-triangle was initiated. And no, it was not my fault. Corecin: If this is your first time with a lesbian love triangle in a DnD game than you don't even have to specify that you're starting out. Octo: Oh no now Little will enlighten with the deep and complex subject that is hentai lore. Beetleboy: It shows what kind of person I am that I'm seeking crush advice on a forum about creating fictional organisms. Corecin: I am not in the mood for looking up yuri because then the FBI agent monitoring my computer will judge me with reckless abandon. Blue_Komrade: Excuse me sir I am going to have to see if you have your membership card to the Misanthrope Club. Parasky: Ultimately, by the miracle of microbiology and biochemistry, I have accidentally added an additional month to my brew and created a Bavarian style hefeweizen rather than the American style wheat beer I planned, despite technically not having the correct ingredients. However because I wrote down what I did wrong its not a mistake it's actually science. Rebirth: I can't be the only one curious about what would happen if you spayed and neutered a male antechinus before it reached sexual maturity. Ebervalius: Laws? What kind of spooky cuckery is that? Parasky: Ah see, but that's just the thing, you thought that I thought that you thought that I had said you hadn't read it, when really I had said that you had said that you thought that I thought that you hadn't read it. So really it's Flisch's fault.

I like to draw naked animals because I suck at drawing fur and plumage.
Aside from that, I skimmed through that rant. I loved it. 10/10, would skim again.

Because I'm apparently too much of a "Stupid, ignorant awesomebro"." Only two of those words are correct.
Awesomebro is the wrong one. I would call you a 'disgusting skin fetishist'.

I'll make a shorter, more coherent point, addressed to SS-Federkopfverbände. Fluffy dinosaurs are neat, and it's fun to play around. But remember, we have excellent skin impressions and preserved skin showing that not all dinosaurs were covered in feathers or quills. There was a reason people assumed that dinosaurs had scaly skin, it was all the scaly dinosaur skin that convinced us. Don't just slap feathers on everything, look carefully at what integument we have for an animal, or for its relatives.
And now on to GlarnBoudin. Jurassic World was trash. Mostly because it was a bad film, but the animals were awful. They looked and behaved worse than they did in Jurassic Park, and that was a film made two decades earlier.
Awsomebro, while not a a label anyone would accept, is certainly a real thing. Take a look at wildlife photography and art. While exciting behaviour is obviously popular, for every picture of a lions hunting or fighting there are plenty of lions eating, sleeping, mating, being stupid, etc. Paleoart is massively skewed towards "cool" stuff, which detracts from them being complex animals and turns them into monsters. Same goes for life appearance.

There was a reason people assumed that dinosaurs had scaly skin, it was all the scaly dinosaur skin that convinced us. Skin impressions made by dead, rotting animals from a stage where the feathers had decayed enough for the skin to imprint into the mud.

This is from a titanosaur embryo. It never even hatched, covered in scales.
