1Sounds like they brought it on themselves with their civil war.
2Well, they didn't start it, and they tried to stop it.
3Yep, one word, Baterra.
4Still, they didn't intend the Baterra to become unstoppable killing machines.
5They decided the best way to end the war would be to slaughter the soldiers on both sides by creating machines that mercilessly killed anyone they saw with a weapon, and were completely undetectable and practically unstoppable.
6I think the intent there is pretty obvious.
7Well, they weren't designed to be unstoppable, a glicth turned them that way.
8Also "merciless slaughter the soldiers of the other sides" was pretty much what the ELs were trying/going to cause. It only makes sense that the GBs built the Baterra to be better at that than the Glatorian.

9Killing immense numbers of people who probably would have died anyway doesn't really change the fact that you killed immense numbers of people. And the only glitch was that their unstoppable killing machines wouldn't turn off when they tried to turn them off. I'd call that "getting what's coming to you."

10We don't know how many Glatorian were actually killed by the Baterra, though. Also, keep in mind the GBs were trying to stop the war, and had tried diplomatic means before.

11It would have worked perfectly if it wasn't for the shattering. Which the ELs caused. 12J'accuse .
1besides the killing would stop if they dropped their weapons.
2which would make it very favourable to end the fight
3Little problem there. They never told anyone.
4Mass murder is mass murder. There were ways to stop the fighting without committing genocide, but that's the choice the Great Beings picked. You can't excuse something like that.

6Well genocide can refer to destroying a culture, not necessarily extincting a race. And since the Skrall are a warrior people, their culture would have been destroyed if they were to survive. So either way it is genocide, at least in the case of the Skrall. But it is true that the Baterra would have been a better choice than raising an army, at least as far as we know.
1What are you talking about? Nobody said a poll about a poll, just one poll, which thankfully, we don't need.
2Uh, yeah, somebody did. Two posts up. Which is why I addressed the issue.
41. The Jovan combiner model is mostly gunmetal gray, with black armor and white limbs. For confirmation purposes, is gunmetal gray the primary color for Magnetism, and black is the secondary? 52. Since Odina was overrun by Rahkshi, has the Toa that was in stasis escaped? 62a. If so, is there a potential that he/she will be part of the team in the new Toa serial?
7Thank you for your time.
8~Lord Rahl~
91) I never thought of it that way, I thought of it as those were the pieces the designer had to work with. 102) No. Why would Rahkshi free a Toa?
111. So, are those the colors, or did you have others in mind? 122. I just figured they might have just trampled through and maybe cracked the stasis tube, is all...
13Thank you for your time.
14~Lord Rahl~
151) I generally don't have colors in mind, I think in words, not pictures. 162) Nope.
17So, that's pretty much proof that Greg doesn't care, either way. If it's a general consensus to keep Gumetal Gray and Black, then I guess that's what we do.
18Bummer on number two.
19~Lord Rahl~
20I'm for keeping them. I suppose I'll bring up the issue on the talk on BS01, and people can decide from there.

28And do remember, they tried to activate a failsafe (which, ironically, failed). I see it more as guilt than anything else; they were selfish, made the EL's, and tried everything they could to fix that, even violence.
1I don't see it as selfish. The GBs weren't cut out for leadership. Most scientists aren't. That's why a physicist isn't president. The GBs came up with a solution to the problem, the solution wasn't the right one.

3LOL. Can we please get back on topic? Before we get this closed... AGAIN...
1Felt like I should post this here even if it had to do with the Elements topic, since this was a GregF question:
2A member recently complained in the Elements topic about not being able to have Toa of the colors they wanted, and being "forced" to go with the colors you chose. Another member, Iron Toa, responded with this:
3Actually he's revealed blue is primary and white is secondary. But that doesn't mean they always have to have blue bodies and white limbs. Consider Hafu, a Po-Matoran with a black mask, hands and legs, and tan body and arms. And stone is considered primarily brown and secondarily tan.
4Can you confirm whether or not Matoran of other colors can exist? I personally believe so but I'd like your word on it since that's the only opinion some members will follow. Thanks .
5Two things -- one, Iron Toa is correct, there are plenty of examples of Matoran whose colors do not match that of the Toa of their tribe. And two, the initial member you mentioned is trying too hard to be "canon and official" -- the point of MOCing and fan fiction is to use your imagination, not slavishly follow what anyone at LEGO says.

3They didn't try to "KILL EVERYONE WHO RESISTS", they simply want to "KILL EVERYONE WHO FIGHTS". Big difference.

4Uhhh...when you're slaughtering everyone who has something that might be considered a weapon, killing everyone who resists is exactly the same thing.
1Guys, move the conversation to the Official Great Beings Topic. That's what it was made for.
1an agori found out that the baterra only killed the armed. the GB's tried peacefull ways. they failed. they made baterra, who kill the armed. if a soldier by accident lost his weapon, he would live, think "why", they find out about more instances in which this happened, 1+1=2, stop fighting. unfortunately, the shattering came along.
2you know what's evil? if the GB's had made the equivalent of a nuke and killed ALL of them. or used the ignika as a weapon.

So, back to the part of this topic where we've asked Greg questions and he's answered them...
So, back to the part of this topic where we've asked Greg questions and he's answered them... 2
31) Were Lesovikk, Sarda, and Idris friends before Lesovikk became a Toa, or did they only become friends after Lesovikk was already a Toa?
42) Did the Great Beings base the Madu fruit of the Matoran Universe on the Thornax of Bara Magna?
53a) As you've said many times, the laws of physics in the world of Bionicle differ greatly from the physics of our world. In Bionicle, we've seen that Toa of Fire can absorb (if only briefly), all of the heat in a room to plunge the temperature and freeze the area. While in our world, cold is the absence of heat (and the Toa of Fire example illustrates this is also the case in the Bionicle world). However, while we know not all Toa can absorb their element, I was wondering if Toa of Ice can "absorb the cold" (again, if only temporarily) in wherever they may be?
63b) If this is the case, would this "absence of cold" cause heat to take its place, or would there be some other effect on the affected area, and if so, what?
74a) At first, I was tempted to think that the Yellow Rahkshi's Staffs of Heat Vision weren't canon, because they were the same shape as Guurahk's Staff of Disentegration. However, because you have now confirmed the Staff of Heat Vision to be canon and necessary for them in order to channel their heat vision powers, does this mean their shape is canon as well?
84b) If so, does this mean multiple Rahkshi may have similar shaped staffs with different functions depending on the rahkshi who wields the staff?
95a) So now we know Mata Nui's true original mission was to find the knowledge to reunite Spherus Magna, then do so with Makuta, correct?
105b) If so, did the Great Beings have any plans for Mata Nui (specifically the robot, but perhaps also the consciousness) after he had completed his mission?
115c) What about for Makuta, or any of the other denizens of the MU?
126) Would Artakha's experience controlling a legendary mask for so long give him greater control if he tried to use one of the other legendary masks: the Vahi or the Ignika?
137) Are there different classes among the Sisters of the Skrall just as there are among the males (similar to leader class, warrior class, etc.)
148) Are female Rock Agori considered part of the Sisters of the Skrall, or are they also with the males and the Army in Bara Magna?
159a) Will the Sisters of the Skrall play any role in the current Battle on Bara Magna?
169b) If so, whose side do you see them joining? Makuta's? Skrall's? Glatorian? or their own?
1710a) Will the Bone Hunters play any role in the current Battle on Bara Magna?
1810b) If so, whose side do you see them joining? Resuming their alliance with the Skrall? Trying to ally with the Glatorian? Trying to join Makuta? or just remaining on their own side?
19Thanks for taking the time to answer these.
201) Yes, they were friends before. 212) Most likely, yes 223) I would say yes, a Toa of Ice could do that -- however, we know that cold is the absence of heat, the same way darkness is the absence of light, but I have never heard it stated the other way around. 234) All I can tell you is that is the staff shape being used in the comics, so it is canon. 245) Wrong. He was not seeking knowledge on how to reunite the planet. He knew that already. He was seeking to learn about other cultures so that what happened on Spherus Magna would not happen again after it was restored. 255b) At that point, the robot would no longer be needed. 265c) Same answer. 276) I would say no, because all legendary masks are different 287) There is probably some hierarchy, since they do have a leader 298) Female rock Agori are with the males. There are no Agori with the Sisters. 309a-10) No, because neither side sees any benefit to them. The Sisters could care less about the Glatorian or what the male Skrall are doing, and the bone hunters prefer hitting and running to massive set-piece battles.
11) where are Click? in their nest near Vulcanus? or now is the shield of a Glatorian? (maybe Ackar or Kiina) 22) what you think about the Nektann's ability could be grow / shrink at will ( with a reasonable maximum and minimum) as the third power? That would be fun considering it is higher than an average Skakdi and his set is small 33) the Mata Nui's body "Glatorian" was ... reproductively functional? 44) I can ask you about the pictures of Mata Nui's Saga or that is field of Bink? 55) remember Bionicle Adventures 3... Vision Heat Rahkshi used their powers unarmed, but with the disadvantage of being partially blind ... What is the official version? I propose that they can use his powers unarmed, but without his staff are partially blind, with them they have no side effects... but it's just an idea 66) Gresh' swords are the same that his Jungle Shield... could be the same, but exidiana-covered? 77) Gresh continues to use its Thornax Launcher?
81) Jeft before Mata Nui took over the prototype robot, Click left to be with the other Glatorian. 92) I haven't thought about a special power for him yet, mainly because whatever it is, it won't show up in story at this point. 103) I don't get into discussing this. Since I am not doing a "Mata Nui has kids" story, it's not relevant. 114) Bink 125) The official version is what's current. At the time BA 3 was written, there was no way to know we would ever do sets of HV Rahkshi or that I would have to worry about them again. 136) No, they are new weapons. 147) When necessary, yes.
152) Oh ... Well, anyway the power to enlarge / shrink not need as much appearance, simply assumes that it has always turned "on" to look bigger than an standar Skakdi ... but, again, is just an idea 163.1) Ok, I understand, but his body Glatorian has DNA? 173.2) The Ignika can create functional DNA? 185.1) We can assume that in BA3 the Rahkshi had his staff? 195.2) Remains canon the loss of vision? 208) Ehlek's species may be called "Sub-Zakazians"? (since they are under-Zakaz) 219) The Shadow Takanuva Army use Staff Of Light, Power Lance, varies or do not use any Toa Tool? 2210) The Kanohi Avsa can drain all the darkness to create 100% light beings? 2311) The Melding Rahkshi use positive powers as an Antidote instead of Poison or Regeneration instead of Fragmentation?
243.1) Unknown. We can't assume that Glatorian have the same biological set up that we do, as they are not humans. 253.2) Same answer. 265.1) Or that the scene in BA3 has simply been retconned. 275.2) No. 288) No. 299) I don't recall what weapons I have them offhand 3010) Avsa can't drain darkness, only light. 3111) Did we ever show Rahkshi in that universe?
32BLIND NO MORE =P

2Hey Greg.
3General 41). I've been wondering about those Bionicle Battle Videos, can I ask, will one of them be Mata Nui vs. Teridax?
52). When will the March comic be out? (I decided to ask now because the January comic came out early.)
6Thanks in advance.

81) No the videos exist to promote the Stars sets 92) Should start hitting homes in the first week of March

6I hope Greg doesn't understand that question but if he did........... then why aren't battle videos? The comic it was writed in the comic. But I think Greg just did understanded the question. 7
Lord Riglax11. Would Angonce wear a helmet (Bara Magna), or a Kanohi? 21a. If the former, would you say he has the ability to wear Kanohi and function them? 32. What would you say are his weapons of choice? 43. Do you see Angonce having any pets (household, battle, etc.)
5Thanks.
61) Great Beings do not wear Kanohi. 71a) No. 82) Who says he has any? He's not a warrior, that's not his job. GBs don't get into fights. 93) No.
10Not sure if there is any new info...
11. So would that be a confirmation that Angonce worked on the Ignika and Heremus did not? And that Angonce was not one of the two to place it in the Matoran Universe? 213a. How about Iron Wolves? Did Angonce and/or Heremus participate in modifying them? If so, who? 313b. Modifying Skopio?
41) Yes 513a) Neither 613b) Neither -- these were not real big jobs, doing that kind of modification is child's play to a GB. It's more labor-intensive than it something requires multiple minds to figure it out.
1Hey Mr. Farshtey,
21) Did the EP tank in RoS 10 come from an old lab of Spiriah's on Zakaz? 32) Story-wise, why was Pohatu's adaptive armor orange? Was it a glitch in the armor or something?
4Thanks.
51) Doubtful. 62) Artakha made the armor and chose to make it orange. For all we know, there could be loads of orange Toa of Stone in the MU, and brown was the exception, not the rule.

31
323) So what would happen to the temperature in an area if a Toa of Ice "absorbed" all of the cold?
334a) Does this mean that other Rahkshi can carry similar shaped staffs but the staffs can have different functions depending on the Rahkshi type holding it? For example, the Staff held by Kurahk and the Heat Vision rahkshi can be either a Staff of Anger or a Staff of Heat Vision depending on whether its being held by a Kurahk or a Heat Vision rahkshi?
344b) Or is there still some kind of internal difference, like how with Kanohi, Norik's mask and Dume's mask are shaped the same, but Norik's is a Great Pehkui while Dume's is a Noble Kiril?
355a) But what was the plan then? To have two gigantic robots with no purpose just standing there on the reunited Spherus Magna? Was there anywhere they were supposed to go so they wouldn't be in the way? Or were they supposed to be dismantled?
365b) Also, how was Mata Nui supposed to be able to communicate the information he had learned in his 100,000 year journey?
377) So there is a hierachy. But do different members of the female hierarchy look different, similar to how the males do (since we know of at least three different male Skrall types: Tuma - leader class, Stronius - elilte class, and Soldier class)?
383) No idea. 394a) All I can tell you is what I already did, that the shape of the HV staffs has to be canon because it is what is in the sets. 405a) I don't know that there was a plan then -- Mata Nui was built in a crisis. The focus was on fixing that crisis, not what to do afterwards at that point. It's sort of like when you call the fire department -- you are worrying about getting the fire out, not how you will deal with the water damage the hoses leave behind. 415b) He is capable of speaking Agori, we already saw that in 2009. 427) No.
43
445b) We know Mata Nui could speak Agori. But that was in the Glatorian-sized body provided by the Mask of Life. Surely the Great Beings weren't planning on their 40-million-foot-tall robot returning from its voyage and then just speaking to them? Or was Mata Nui's consciousness always intended to be placed in a smaller form after reunited Spherus Magna, in order to communicate what he had learned (that's kind of what I was getting at when I asked if there was a plan for Mata Nui after his mission was completed).
45Also, apparently BS01 considers what you said about the Madu being based on the Thornax as "speculation". Therefore, can you please confirm that the Great Beings did base the Madu fruit of the Matoran Universe on the Thornax of Bara Magna?
46Thanks
475b) Why not? Do you think that it is impossible that the people on the surface could hear Mata Nui if he spoke? I am sure he is capable of a broadcast that could be heard planet-wide. 486) Yes, I can confirm that the Madu was based on the Thornax.
1I always thought Madu fruit and Thornax were awfully alike hehe. So that means if Makuta decides to help Mata Nui reassemble Spherus Magna that the new good Makuta would die along with Mata Nui because there is no need for them. Thats so sad . 
1I need help asking Greg a question. See, when I click the link on the first post to send Greg a message, it says I can't. If anyone can tell me why or help me, I would greatly appreciate it.
1Hi Greg.
21. Is the Toa of Plasma that Zaktan supposedly "killed" going to be in the new Toa serial? 32. What would you call a Kanohi that increases the physical resistance of its wearer? (Similar to the Limited Invulnerabily power Makuta have.) I can't think of a good name for one...
4Thank you for your time.

61) No. 72) I would call it Mask of Endurance
8Stuff I got this morning...

1Why do I keep seeing references to that Toa of Plasma not being dead? He was pretty much reduced to a puddle, wasn't he?
2Anyway, I have some new information here:
211. Thought so, it's just that so far the pictures have indicated him observing planets from space. 222. Okay, I wondered if for example the eyes over Metru Nui would close or Bohrok awakening would be noticed by anyone inside. 233. So much for that idea. But the Great Beings (and by extension I would imagine Mata Nui) were creative. 244. Hmm. I wonder if that means he'd gathered enough information on societies to satisfy the Great Beings. But I can wait for the answer to that. 255. That makes sense. It explains why the Toa Nuva didn't get replace their masks when the Piraka took them. 266. Okay. This was mostly for my fan fiction, but now it's out there for us all. 277. My original question didn't get answered. I'll just assume yes for now, because my interpretation of Lhikan's transformation was wrong.
2Anyway, I have some new information here:
3Hello Mr. Farshtey. I have some questions about a couple topics:
4Matoran Universe - 51. Did Mata Nui ever land on a planet and use his camouflage as intended during his mission?
62. Inside the Matoran Universe, is there any way to tell when it has deployed in such a way or left a planet?
73. Has Mata Nui (or is it possible that he has) based some of his inhabitants such as Vortixx and all the strange races we've only seen as Dark Hunters on aliens he's observed? I ask this because many of them don't seem like they're based on something from Bara Magna.
84. Why did Mata Nui crash on Aqua Magna? I mean, did he (consciously or unconsciously) change course to the remains of Spherus Magna when he was attacked by Makuta, or did he just happen to be near Aqua Magna when he finally went unconscious?
9Toa - 105. For a Toa to summon a mask from a Suva, does there have to be an existing mask on the Toa's face? So if a Toa lost his/her mask, could he/she get a replacement mask from his/her Suva from a distance?
116. Can Toa channel their Toa Power directly into Matoran to turn them into Toa, without putting their power into Toa Stones or a Mask or some other object?
127. Could a destined Matoran be transformed into a Toa by an object imbued with Toa Power by a Toa who has died? I wonder because Lhikan didn't turn into a Turaga until after the chosen Matoran became Toa Metru, which makes me think the Toa Stones were more of a conduit than a capacitor.
13Thank you .
141) Plenty of times, he was active for 100,000 years before he crashed. 152) Not if the artificial gravity and stabilizers are working up to capacity. 163) No. 174) The latter. He was on his way back to Bara Magna when the virus struck, and he crashed on Aqua Magna. 185) Yes, there does. If you have no mask on, you lose access to the suva. 196) No. 207) He didn't turn into a Turaga until they became Toa because his destiny was for them to become Toa, not just for him to create Toa stones. He hadn't achieved his destiny yet.

1Why do I keep seeing references to that Toa of Plasma not being dead? He was pretty much reduced to a puddle, wasn't he?
2We were only told that the only stuff left in the room was a puddle of something and a half-biten mask. We don't know what the puddle was.
3But Greg has said numerous times that, while his fate was vague, the Toa of Plasma is dead.

4Uh? I remember it as one of those things he left open.

5Too lazy to find it right now, but yeah I remember Greg saying a while ago that the ToP was dead.
1Yeah it even says that "Zaktan killed the Toa of Plasma, there was a orange puddle of goop but Zaktan didn't want to know what it was." I'm using my own words of course except for the part about Zaktan killing him and about he didn't want to find out what the puddle was.
1QUOTE 2Dear Greg, I have some questions that weren't sent to you yesterday,
36. Did Zaktan kill the toa of plasma he attacked?
46) He wants others to think he did, but whether he did or not is unknown in story, except to him.
5Greg has said several times now that that Toa is probably still alive. It never said specifically in that book that he was killed. Zaktan dragged him off, came back grumpy, and all Avak could find was a Kanohi and a puddle. I always assumed that Zaktan tried to smother the Toa with his protodites, the ToP heated up his armor using his power, melting both his armor and some of Zaktan's protodites before he escaped. It never said what that puddle was.
6And X-Ray, yes, we are supposed to discuss his answers here. Read the first post.
