Summary0009880: Giant desert scorpions still do not exist
DescriptionI'm recreating this issue to add a point I intended to make back when they were FIRST removed, which by now has been several versions ago.

Toady said, ages ago, that he'll re-implement giant desert scorpions. Now I get that he might intend to make giant desert scorpions a giant variant of currently-nonexistent regular desert scorpions, but in the meantime it makes no sense to remove the old version.

Re-add giant desert scorpions as they originally existed, and just rework them LATER. It's literally copy, paste, boom.

Seriously. Sure it takes me five seconds per new version to re-add the old raw. But that likewise means it would take Toady the same five seconds to permanently solve this issue. At least, until Toady implements regular desert scorpions and desert scorpion men.

This isn't a bug. And if you already reported it once you're just cluttering up the bug tracker with your frustration. Now someone has to take time out of checking the other thousand bugs (which presumably you've noticed) to close this report as a duplicate. Thanks.

Someone else had reported it, actually. Though yes, I would've rather re-opened the old one. -_-
