1Here's some somewhat random stuff:
2Hello Greg, I have some questions I hope can be answered.
31. All matoran have specific personalities based on element (ex. Ko-matoran are often to themselves, Le-matoran joke around, etc.) 4So I'm wondering, what it is for av-matoran. Tanma, Photok, and Solek are in the battle of Karda Nui, so they're probably not themselves, as much as trying to fight to survive. So my question is, which is closer to an Av-matoran personality? 5a. Like Takua 6b. Influenced by their surroundings and people they've met 7c. Obsesive (ex. Tanma-being a leader, Solek-with the Mata's history, Takua- with adventure)
82. The first being brought into existence in the MU was a matoran. The first matoran was an Av-matoran. It seems that being the first matoran of the matoran universe, the Great Beings would have given a fairly important destiny to it, especially knowing to some extent how the universe could turn out. Could this matoran have been Takua, based on how important Helryx and Krakua said his destiny is in Bionicle Legends#10?
93. Is Jerbraz's slightly arrogant personality a nod towards The Invisible Man?
10Thank you for your time.
111) Not really something I have worried about. To be honest, I have never been comfortable with the "all members of species have these personality traits" thing, even though we do it in BIONICLE -- do all humans have the same personality traits? Even all humans of the same race or in the same town? No. 122) No. 133) I don't see him as arrogant.

14Actually, humans as a whole can be viewed as a curious, species who are arrogant and cocky, with a general xenophobia when you think about it.
15And as for above, about the Sonics = Sound thing, again I say it's kinda a mouthful.
1It's only one syllable longer... how about magnetism? Should it be Toa of Magnet?
1This discussion belongs in the Official Elements Topic.
2Take it there, guys.

1QUOTE 2Hello Mr. Farshtey. I have a question for you.
31. I read the new Takanuva Blog and got the impression that Photok is a Shadow matoran. Can you confirm this?
4Thanks.
5No, he's not 6Phew . . .
7why would you think Photok is a shadow matoran?
8Because Photok yelled, that would be my guess.
9He wouldn't have time to be mutated, and Takanuva wouldn't recognize him as a shadow matoran.

10I think he would. Photok's colors would turn darker, that's all.

8Becaus Photok yelled and a Shadow matoran was coming right for Taka.

11Unless Mutran got a hold of him. But that couldn't happen.
1I got the assumption he yelled to warn Takanuva of the Shadow Matoran... 
6Yeah, thats true, but he wouldn't have time to be mutated, or go anywhere to be mutated anyway, which eliminates the mutation thing, and he could have just changed his color, just to point this all out. Anyway, I think it's Vican. Greg said it was a known matoran, and Kirop and Gavla are with the makuta.1QUOTEHello Mr. Farshtey. I have a question for you.1.

8That's what happened.7I got the assumption he yelled to warn Takanuva of the Shadow Matoran...
1The Matoran is Vican, and he's not so shadowy anymore
1People, I hate to rant, but perhaps this discussion should be moved to the official Av-Matoran topic. This topic was nearly closed due to off-topic discussion. On a lighter note, I am expecting a PM from Greg.
1I posted in the Makuta's Status and Plans Topic already...
2I think the server ate this one...
3Hey Greg,
41) Does the destruction of the Coliseum have anything to do with the Hagah's mission to find Teridax?
52) Would destroying the coliseum destroy the location that Tuyet found and used to trigger the launch of the Toa Mata?
64) Does that location have a special connection with Karda Nui?
75) Is it possible that Teridax is in that location?
8Thanks
91) Yes 102) Can't answer it 114) To the extent it is where they could be activated from there, yes 125) No
1So Terry's not in that room. It's a great theory.

2I think he's where the map is.
3What map?
4The Blade Burrower map, first told in The Mutran Chronicles. Has something to do with 2009 story and, to some extent, 2008 story.
5There can be a lot of BB maps all over the Matoran Universe, the Metru Nui one doesn't have to be special.

6Yeah, but this one has a guard.
1IIRC Greg said that the place was "heavily guarded", not that there is a guard. So it could be cursed/enchanted, behind an impenetrable door, surrounded by automatic turrets, etc. He seemed to make a point of noting that he never stated that there were living guards.
2Personally I would consider the Colosseum being smack on top of it and surrounded by Toa guarded enough.

3I meant either the mutated kane-ra or artahka bull.
1Ah I see. I do remember that now. But the Blade Burrowers are under the Archives right? You would think that if that was where Teridax was going, the Hagah would rather go through the archives than all that mess with the Colosseum. Is it even feasible that the BB map is under the Colosseum?
Missing Posts from September 2008 to March 2009
Unfortunately, all posts in this topic between September 26, 2008 and March 16, 2009 are missing! This is because in March 2009, a technical mishap on BZPower caused all forum data since September 2008 to be permanently erased. This happened long before fishers64 saved the Official Greg Dialogue in the text file that was used to rebuild this archive, so the original posts remain unavailable to this day.
Fortunately, all of the most salient information from the affected time period was recorded in the contemporaneous Farshtey Feed, a fan-run weekly digest devoted to summarizing the Official Greg Dialogue. You can find the first post in the missing time period here, and the last post here.

2Well, the archives could stretch under the Colosseum.
1I can't believe we have 164 pages once again.
1When I saw it I went NNNOOO . .
1Well, i had just started on an interview with Greg all that valuable information lost 
1Also if you want the exact quote you posted/saw here, try PMing me with what you want as I may have it. 
1i have all the post of this section inmi pc, but i need charge to an upload server, administrators, contact me if you like this.
1Hopefully, we'll be able to get back an air of normalcy around here.
2I say that we hold off on PMing Greg for at least a day or two.I'm sure he'll want to sort through any old stuff in his inbox before he starts to answer any new questions.
3Not to mention the fact that Greg's inbox will have been wiped just the same as ours, so anyone who sent any recent PMs will probably have to resend them in a week or so.
1Hey GregF, just one question. 2Are there only three types of Skrall that exists on Bara Magna? 3Three as in the leader class, the special arms class, and the soldier class? 4Thanks.
5Since I only need three classes this year, that is all I am creating this year. If I need more in future, I will make more.

6Sounds like we'll be on Bara Magna a while.
