*a hand made of the empty, damaged shells of many massive spiders bursts from the soil, followed by the rest of a humanoid body, falling apart and wearing a ragged, dirty coat that nearly reached the ground and a torn fedora with a nest of beetles in it. The undead figure straightens it's worm-eaten bow tie as it awakes fully, a dull bluish glow flickering to life in one of its damaged eye sockets. The Spiders twitch and shake as their bodies are saturated with colour and iridescent blue fur bursts from their decrepit shells, the holes fusing shut and missing legs pulling themselves from the ground and climbing back to their places, the dust puffs from the entity in a cloud as its second eye begins to glow. The clothes sew themselves back together and, slowly, the beetles in the hat drop off and run away, the bow tie blooms into its former glory as red dye that had gone brown flourishes a bloody scarlet once more. The Colony smiles as it's eyes brighten fully, and dusts off the coat.*
I- I'M ALIIIIIIVE!!!!!!
anyway, hello, this awakening may be short, or not, but still, I shall address some matters that arose in my absence:
"DINO FACTS" are noticeably innacurate and shocking, I suggest a team of the remaining fanfictioners be appointed professional fact-checkers if it is ever seen again, spinosaurus were Certainly unable to "punch through any metal" and their bite was hardly terrifying compared to other saurians, no, it was the sharp teeth designed to catch and hold large fish that would pose a danger, as well as this, the claim the carcharadontosaurs stood no chance against a spino in battle is preposterous and, frankly, offensive, there is proof of the vermin biting right through a spinosaurus' sail. As for the battle, it is quite inaccurate in my opinion, as, not only was a megalodon INFINITELY more powerful of bite and had a fatter, more flexible body which would withstand more damage, but it (as far as I know) did not exist at the same time as a spino, and was only driven extinct roughly 4 MYA by a kind of sperm whale that not only outcompeted it for their shared food source of small whales, but are the sharks themselves(!)
What IS accurate however, is the spinosaurus' location in Egypt and their semi-aquatic nature.
Now, as much as I would like to insult misinformation more/tardily reply to other things, I really have to go now, I apologize for any inconvenience caused by my uncontained annoyance at Lava's claims. And REALLY HAVE TO GO NOW SO BYE.
More Silver Coloring Tips
Dilo Girl, HJK, PD, anyone from pre2023 Silver and prior to the rebuilding of Achatina!!!
This is PrimalApex, I am from Achatina and joined the fanfiction community there in March of 2023, and didn’t find about anything in the dyes until 2024. BUT I need your help. I come here with disturbing news that I need help with. And I need someone to help me absolutely verify this.
It’s about Tina.
I know everyone has said she died, I legit told someone this, and that Peter, her brother came in here and confirmed it himself. But I know there was some sort of fiasco with a person ‘impersonating’ her called Cherades cause I had to look just now.
To make long story short, after I told this person that she died, I got real curious about her and look for her old posts. I was looking for any of her older posts on here to find a start date and put any information I can on her in our Fandom to properly memorialize her there. I was looking through the creature posts because it can verify the account and show you what other stuff they have posted in the past on a creature story post (for some reason dyes are anonymous posts so you can’t verify) and I found a post from Tina’s account, in December of 2022 going by the name of Charmer. Now I had checked before doing my dive into the creature posts and saw Peter’s announcement of Tina’s happened in August of 2022. Which means this should be impossible. But, there was also that other run in ‘FakeTina/Cherades’ in December. So is this fake too? It is from her old account that posted stories, so is it real???
I need to ask anyone here, anyone who has Discord and is on the Silver Dye’s Discord if anyone, someone has verifiable proof that Tina is really dead. Cause this is breaking it if it is real.
I am not here to stir up controversy, I am not here to open old wounds, I am not here to do anything but find the truth. If you want to verify my evidence, please do so. Go to Bing (Google won’t do it anymore, at least for me), and look up “Survival: a fan made story — Chapter one Dododex”, Copy and Paste it and go to Bing. Or go to the Achatina Fandom and ask to see the evidence from PrimalApex. I WILL SHOW IT TO YOU!! Please, I beg of anyone who can, please prove to me we had solid proof Tina died. Because I am afraid that all we have is the word of Peter, I think a terrible mistake happened. And it hurting me to think about it.
Please, somebody, anybody, if you don’t believe me come to Achatina, and use the website version to see the stories. I can prove this is genuine and I am the genuine PrimalApex. I just need someone to help me lay this rest. Please, anyone?
Until Next Time,

(Who is actually tearing up)
Hi, I have decided to try to write stories starting in silver dye. I am a new ark player so bear with me.
My start:
I woke up in an unfamiliar world. I look around, and all I can remember is my name, Blue. I feel a pinch on my arm and look down at it. I see a gem. I try to rub it off but I can’t. I walk over and start punching a tree. I get wood and thatch in my gem. Then, I punch a rock. That gives me flint, stone, and 1 metal. I tap the gem and look inside. It looks like a computer. I see different parts. I tap something called an eneagram and unlock a axe and fire. Then, I unlock a pickaxe. I use the axe to get more wood and thatch and the pickaxe to get stone and flint. I get no metal this time. I look in my crystal agian and see a crafting part. I craft a fire. I run in the forest and feel pain. I look down and see tiny dinosaurs. I start running away but they follow me. They kill me. I wake up agian, confused. I look around. I think “I must have somehow respawned.” I tap my crystal and see a message. I look at it and it says “you have been killed by a level 3 compy. I see a green beacon of light. I run to it. I find myself in the same place I was where I died last time! I look around apprehensively. I can’t see the compy.
More hopefully coming soon. -Joy
Feels like I’ve discovered an ancient landmark in Dododex.
A hidden community hidden away in a random place.
Arguing and chatting on the most random subjects.
I think they even made a discord.
Fascinating to know Dododex isn’t just a wiki for some, it’s a community.
-SomeGamerGuy, the stupid friend.
okay, but, what the shuck is going on here, who is Tina (rip if it was real tho), who is dtg, I needa read allo’ this lore to get caught up, seriously tho, this silver coloring tips section is completely bizarre.
Wow, so glad I found this place, it is so cool. -Joy
5 years ago this was me. Bruh I'm in college now...
-Dilo Girl, I still live!
I will continue Blue’s story in Bubblegum dye.
-Joy

I will be continuing and revamping The Righteous.
