  1. I just did a quick search on jumping spider lifespan, and to my surprise, I found that they can live for 2 to 3 years. Keeping that in mind, I'd say yes! I think I'll look into it some more later.
  2. "I'm Buzz, nice to meet you" He replied. Brew seemed like he wanted to pay attention the the counselors rather then talk, Buzz thought best to follow suit. However something was nagging at the back of his mind. He could of swore he heard what he thought was Cloud's voice yell off in the distance just a moment ago. Cloud was always so quiet though, so he wouldn't be able to recognize him yelling or not.
  3. After much procrastination, I'm finally doing the Jumping Spider highlight! Out of all the kinds of spiders known on this earth, Jumping Spiders make up the majority, about 13% of all species. Jumping Spiders live in a wide array of habitats including Tropical and Temperate forests, scrub lands and deserts, and mountainous regions. They can range dramatically in terms of color, but all Jumping Spiders can be identified as such by one particular feature, their eyes. All Jumping Spiders have a recurring pattern in the front row of their eyes with the inner two always being more prominent then the outer two. As the name implies, Jumping Spiders posses efficient leaping capability's. Surprisingly, a Jumping spiders ability to leap has little to do with it's legs. Rather, Jumping Spider's bounds, which is very often multiple times it's own body length, is made possible thanks to their well developed book lungs, a respiratory organ found in arachnids, and internal hydraulic system. While they do use their jumping prowess for navigation purposes in varying frequency, it comes into play much more crucially when on the look out for it's next meal. Jumping Spiders are active hunters, patrolling around when looking for prey. Jumping Spiders have excellent eyesight as far as arachnids are concerned, aiding them greatly when looking for prey as well as pouncing on it. When they do jump, they always do it prepared. Whenever a Jumping Spider jumps, it always attaches a line of silk to wherever their jumping from. That way, should the jump miss, they prey shakes them off, or anything else that might go wrong does, they can use their "safety harness" to climb back to where they jumped from. Jumping Spiders can be found to exhibit surprising intelligence and be very adaptive when hunting. The many various species are observed employing numerous different hunting strategies for different kinds of prey. Some species are specialists, using a certain tried and true method for catching a predetermined kind of prey. Other's are shown to alter their strategy's for different targets making it possible for them to nab pray much, much, bigger and more dangerous than themselves, as show here.
  4. Buzz smiled and took her hand to shake. He gestured over to Black Licorice and Brew Highkick. "This Black Licorice and..." He paused for a bit as he looked at Brew. ​"Actually, I don't think I've quite made your acquaintance yet. Brew? Was it?"
  5. Cloud must of not noticed Pepperjack as he excused himself to take a walk. She was now hovering, and looked nervous and unsure of what to say next. Buzz felt obligated to help her feel more comfortable. "Hey, you can sit with us" He said to her. "Cloud seems to space out a lot, so he probably didn't notice you. My name's Buzz, what did you say your name was, Pepperjack?"
  6. Personality: Knight is known to have three seperate personalities, depending on who he talks to. If to a male colleague, he's rough, competitive, and playful. Around female colleagues, he get's show-offy, speaks poetically, and, at times, pervertedly. To figures of authority, he is rebellious, acts like he listens, and known to cause more trouble afterwards. Overall, he's confident, sporty, and rather unintelligent. He can be fashion consious, mostly because he believes girls will like him more if he is. Likes: Kendo, women, sports, fooling around, pranks, messing with his younger brother, competition. Dislikes: Authority, school, reading, rules, tests, shirts. Character Bio: Yo dudes, it's me again. I had an awesome time last year, and though I'd come back again. It's WAAAAY better than being locked up in a mansion all summer, and being forced into tending the garden every time I get in trouble. Besides, if I didn't come, I'd be forced into studying with my brother, and trust me, nothing's worse than that! Activities You're Interested In: Nature walks\hikes, drawing\painting, creative writing, swimming, rock climbing, magic duels, bonfire games, running races (team AJ). Final Notes: In case it wasn't noticed in his bio, he's from a rich family. And I'll keep any pervertedness to a minimum. Oh, and pretend in the picture he has all the equine things (horn, tail, etc), his cutie mark on his right shoulder, and that he's more muscular. And when I say he dislikes shirts, he doesn't like wearing them, he only wears them because his parents force him. So... Yay! This one sounds fun, be sure to go to cabin 1! He's just what we need.

  8. Crash had just woken up from last night's sleep under a nearby tree. Crash was a wanderer, living wherever he felt like until moving somewhere else. He had stopped in ponyville on more then one occasion and knew the town well enough. He would usually stay in a hotel at night, but was very tired the day before and couldn't muster the will to go through the trouble. It wasn't like he was used to it, he'd slept outside under the stars plenty of times before. As he was rubbing the sand out of his eyes, he spotted a rather well maintained, if not a little strange looking carriage a few meters directly in front of him. "Huh, I'm pretty sure that wasn't there last night..." He said to himself. Crash had always held a fascination with wheeled transportation of all kinds, and he could see that the locals were taking interest as well. Never one to not comment on somepony else's ride, he got up, stretched a little and walked up to the pony waiting by the carriage whom he presumed to be the owner. "Hey" He said as he neared "Nice ride, is it yours?"
  9. Tell me about it. I don't have a problem with it know, but it sounds like it could get real old real fast!
  10. "My family thought I should come here so I could have a chance to be closer with the bugs I love so much" Buzz added to the conversation. "But really, they just wanted a break from me attracting bugs into the house all the time" He laughed.
  11. Buzz nodded. "Yes, bugs can feel pain just like you and me" Buzz was a pleased with her interest for the topic. "They're capable of emotions too. If an ant finds a piece of candy somone droped on the ground, you can bet he'll be excited and rush back to tell her colony. If someone is poking a bee's nest with a stick, there's no doubt that they will be furious" He explained. "I don't think it's strange question at all, but why do you ask?"
  12. Hey there Drowzy, welcome to canterlot. The people here on the forums like to call me the "bugmaster" because of my love of arthropods of all kinds. If you like to learn and find yourself bored, come on over to my bug thread. I'm always talking about all sorts of interesting insects and spiders.
  13. Hey there Dusk, welcome to canterlot. The people here like to call me the "bugmaster" because of my love of insects and spiders. If you like to learn and find yourself bored, come on over to my bug thread. I'm always talking about all sorts of interesting arthropods.
  14. Hey Emerath, do you think you could update the campers page with all the new accepted apps?
  15. Just a reminder, I am going to do a highlight on jumping spiders. I've just been a bit really lazy lately is all. Here, look at this adorable jumping spider to tide you over.
  16. Can I be a giant talking praying mantis, about twice the height of an average pony? Also, I'd put my money on an adventure based.
  17. "Nice to meet you,my name's Buzz" He said with a wave. "The only thing you need to know about me is that I love bugs, and bugs love me" A hornet briefly landed on Buzz's hand and allowed him to pet it a little before taking flight again.
  18. I'm really fond of Slenderman as a paranormal/horror being concept. Enough information is concrete that you know what he essentially is and looks like, but is also little enough so that certain details varie from presentation to presentation. As far as his scary factor goes, I do get scared and shaker when I watch marble hornets or play Slender, as I am with just about any horror movie or game, but not to the point where I feel uncomfortable anytime outside of these activities.
  19. Thank you Basse, there were only about 3 (myself included) apps who were'nt socially inempt.
  20. (OOC: Ouch, What about Buzz, MasterMustang?) Buzz silently watched as Brew walked away from him, paying him no heed. He noticed that his cabin-mate, Cloud, was with the girl who just called Brew over. He walked over to say hi. "Hey Tag, mind if I sit with you?"
  21. Buzz turned his head as he heard Twilight's announcement. He turned his head back to Rainbow Dash and said, "Looks like we'll have to pick this conversation up later" before walking torwards the camp entrance to be seated. A boy in what appeared to be a kind of martial arts uniform caught his eye as he was looking for a good place to sit. He walked over to him and asked "What's up? Mind if I sit here?" (OOC: If I don't use colored text when talking, it's because I'm posting from my dad's iPad)
  22. (OOC: Thanks, sorry for being picky. Alright then, back to the role play everypony!)
