1nocturn's island was split in half. besides, destroying is almost the same, as the island does not exist anymore, just two fragments

2maybe we should give greg a break (not nessecarily 0 pm's, just lessen the amount)
#10642
1yea that the island is just split or destroyed doesnt matter meybe he said it was destroyed before but now its split end thats fine . so before anynone goes pm him about decanonazing that that was the island just think waht does it matter if it is split or not it is split nouw end you dont have to pm him about it its not necesarie

2In the future, do consider writing with proper spellings and grammar. It makes reading what you're trying to say much easier. :)
3The problem here is that two facts are contradicting, therefore sites like BS01 will not accept it as accurate information unless confirmation is presented.
4Regardless, discussion about the island should take place in the Official Bionicle Geography Topic.

1I just checked Bionicle Ignition #8 and it said that Nocturn "shattered his island", so Gornt is technically right despite Greg's previous fact I believe that the comic was written before he said told us that fact. So I don't know. I just was going to clear that up so we could get back on topic.

1"A small island, which was once the home of Nocturn's species. Nocturn, in a fit of rage, struck the island's weak spot, breaking it in half."
2Taken from BS01. Now we can forget about this and get back on topic.

4To add to that, BS01 tends to update even rewritten info once it's published. When the new resource is wrong, BS01's not a good source of evidence since it comes from the post.
#10651
1Not all the time. Most of the time BS01 questions the information. Especially if it's something absurd.
#10652
1Okay, this is straight from Dictionary.com.
2Shatter 3definition: break into small pieces 4Synonyms: 5blast, blight, burst, crack, crash, crunch, crush, dash, demolish, destroy, disable, exhaust, explode, fracture, fragment, fragmentalize, fragmentize, impair, implode, overturn, pulverize, rend, rive, ruin, scrunch, shiver, smash, smash to smithereens, smatter, snap, splinter, splinterize, split, torpedo, total, wrack up, wreck

6(I added the bolding)
7The words shatter and wreck are interchangeable, split is just a more specific form of the verb. So you guys can stop bothering Greg about how Nocturn broke his island.

1Not all the time. Most of the time BS01 questions the information. Especially if it's something absurd.

2That's why I said "tends to". Not all the time, but I've seen it happen when searching just after some new thing was introduced, wasn't right and they listed BS01 as further back up.
3IDK details, but it was a few times. Also, glad to hear someone else is questioning some absurdities too :P
#10654
1Lol, of course. Tahu's armor being based on Ackar's armor was absurd.
#10655
1Guys, this is the OGD, not the BS01 accuracy / Nocturn's homeland topic. Bring it somewhere else.
#10656
1Actually, it's quite relevant to this topic. Members should know that they should read sources before asking mind-changing questions.
#10657
1We appear to have contradicting facts here. Aravagantos says you once stated that Nocturn had destroyed his home island, but I recently confirmed that it split into the two fragments located above Odina. The question is:
2In Nocturn's fit of rage, and the island's subsequent shattering, was it completely destroyed, or did those two fragments remain? This would help us a lot, since BS01 won't accept contradictory evidence.


3It's been three years since I wrote about Nocturn, so I really don't remember what has been stated where.


4I tried... :(

6Nocturn:
7Nocturn was originally exiled to the Pit for destroying his home island.
8Hope that helps settle it :)

1I would just like to point out that it isn't a contradiction, as you could destroy something by splitting it in half. But further discussion REALLY should be moved.

2It's a comment on a response by Greg; it belongs here.
3If going into specifics about him, then yes. This, however, directly relates to what Greg said on the matter.


4As for the actual comment, I agree. However, it doesn't seem to be stated as if split, but destroyed as in there are tiny pieces of an island scattered about.

2I don't see it that way. In order to split something in two, the two parts should be left more or less intact. But that's just my opinion. :shrugs:
#10662
1So if there was say, a heat vision Rahkshi walking along. Then Sonic the Hedgehog runs out of no where and saws him vertically through the middle, you wouldn't consider that Rahkshi and Kraata to be destroyed?
#10663
1It's all about diction, and that would be the wrong one. They'd be destroyed (IE defeated, beaten, split, cut in half, killed, etc), but to mean that, you'd say it. If you say destroyed, split won't be the meaning, though it is one meaning. Destroyed indicated it's obliterated, ruined, exists no more, it is an ex-parrot.


2etc.

2I didn't know Sonic can do that, but if the Rahkshi is clean-cut in two pieces I probably wouldn't call it "destroyed·.

3It depends upon which sonic you go by. If you go buy the Sonic from the 4 early-mid 90's cartoon shows, then he could do that, but by the games and SONIC X standards he couldn't do that.
4But I would conisder that destroyed.

1It can be said as destroyed, but that is an inaccurate description.

2Well of the Kraata is destroyed that pretty much takes down the Rahkshi armor anyway.
#10668
1for th love of mike we haven't gotten a set of greg answers in almost an entire page be casued of the weird arguements please get back on topic
#10669
1This is on topic. It's talking about greg's response to being split vs it already being "destroyed". They can be similar, but there's a clear distinction in meaning. Destroy doesn't mean being split in half, so it comments on this contradiction of facts.
2Complaining that something's off topic when it isn't is off topic.
#10670
1According to Electric Turahk telling people to get on topic even when the ARE off topic is still being off topic and should be stopped immediately, but I digress.
2I still say that breaking something in half is destroying something in this case, as it is broken into fragments and cannot be easily placed back together. Also, these pieces do not fit together perfectly, so it can be assumed that there were more, smaller fragments, that broke off and sunk.

3I agree, destroying in some cases can mean splitting. If I took your computer and sliced it in half with a chainsaw, would you consider it destroyed? I believe one of the books or comics even said it was split in two.

6But that is exactly my point. If someone was playing the French Horn, I would slice it in half, which would be destroying it.

3Fortunately for us, we're still on topic.
4Splitting something can mean it is destroyed, but it doesn't always work the other way around. When saying "destroyed" it refers to something more than just a split.
#10674
1Well, who said that the island split in a perfect half? Maybe pieces of it flung everywhere, and those two big chunks are all that remained.

1if more than half the island is gone, and all that remains are two former hills that stand above the water, i'd say the island is both split and destroyed.

1Just one question this time:
  1. 2Can a Matoran turn into a Toa by touching Energized Protodermis, if he was destined to?
3Thanks .


4That's a very good question. I would say no. It seems that what unlocks your inner Toa power is something that is invested with some kind of Toa power, like a Toa stone. I don't think EP could do it.
#10680
1Interesting, I wonder what would happen if EP was invested with toa power. Anyway I was just curious so I asked him this.

2Hello GregF . I just read the newest ROS. And I gotta say: WOW. It was great. I love it how you made all the toa Mahri talk alot and stuff smile.
3Here is my question: There was a green gas that went into the energized protodermis pot. Was that green mist Zaktan's essence(protodites)? 4I may be just going too far here. But here is my theory: When Teridax zapped Zaktan and "killed" him it was setup. And it was part of Teridax's plan to temporarily remove Zaktan and then revive him.
5Thanks

6Well, you'll find out what the green mist is in the next chapter.
