7These two points are nothing more then explanations for the objections lordbio brought up. So Greg, did you catch my first post of the suggestions? 
1Hello Greg. It's interesting to see that you have this up even after the end of the original story line.
2I've been making MOCs, and I am trying to make a story line to go with them. I want it to make sense with what the original story line was left with, so here are some questions:
31. The Toa Lhikan gave up his power to the Toa Metru via Toa Stones. One would assume that other Toa could do the same. So, could the Toa Nuva do this, and would their increased power from being Nuva have any interesting effects? (In my case, the extra power would change the elements of the transformed matoran.)
42. Similarly to 1, seeing as Tahu is no longer a Toa Nuva, would the golden armor have any interesting effects on Toa Stones?
53. How does Velika stand as a character? Is he good? Evil? Anti-hero?
64. Are the Great Beings immortal?
75. Would it be possible to have a Shadow Toa in the prime reality that isn't evil, via coming from an alternate universe where the moral roles of Light and Shadow are switched? Or would that Toa become evil upon entering the universe?
lordbio123 wrote:1It seems to make sense that smashing a past version of Bitil would make the original disappear (as in, smashed) and never reappear. Then an alternate timeline where Bitil was smashed in the past would be created as well.
2That shouldn't work, though. The smashing was in an alternate timeline and therefore there was nothing that smashed the original, unless the kanohi smashed the user and itself, but why would it?
3There is, however, the possibility that disappear means relocate/hold while the timeline corrects itself and seals off that alternate timeline, then places that original Bitil back in a chrononomically "cool" location.
4Ugh, timetravel.
5Thoughts?
6It is stated somewhere that Bitil often found himself with wounds or bruises and no idea how he got them, that's from the Mohtrek. In the comics he says, and I quote

9The alternate timeline, Bitil never existed. While in the reality he got smashed in, he just is no longer in existence. Therefore, I'd say that he was permanently smashed.
10On this, we can agree. Can't argue with this logic for once

81. True, but they are more accurately not dupes.
92. Biosector is the most reliable and still, what's the real definition for a Mohtrek?
1Hi Greg, I have three questions for you.
21) Since during the original run we saw many sets sharing pieces (like Brutaka using Rahskhi legs as arms), is it correct to say that the Matoran Universe has basic components used throughout itself, like we do in the real word with bones looking similar between different species? In other words, does Brutaka's arm REALLY look like a Rahskhi leg to, say, someone who managed to see both like Jaller did?
32) Did BIONICLE characters look like exactly like the set we had been sold?
43) Where are the muscles of the inhabitants of the Matoran universe? Are they "incorporated" into the pieces we saw in the toys, or are they visible and therefore "beyond" what LEGO sold us?

72: If Biosector was the most reliable source, why would we need this topic?

8Then why ask for thoughts?
92. Because maybe something on Biosector isn't about Greg. What if we wanted to know his favorite food? Or something like that? It wouldn't be on there. And Biosector is the most reliable non LEGO.Com source.

10I was asking him, as I said, in responce to his request for suggestions. 
112: And yet there are hundreds of questions here on the old BIONICLE and ninjago that their respective wiki's do not answer. (can we please just drop this? Its, "Chat with Greg Farshtey", not, "Chat with lordbio123 and slipperysnakeboy" )
12Speaking of answering, I'm not sure if he's going to or not now. Unless I say, "We did not resolve this question yet, mind helping us Greg?"
1There is another bunch of questions for you, Mr. Farshtey:21) After the dismantling of GSR all remained there characters were saved, but what happened to the Zyglak? Did the Toa put them in the makeshift prison or something?
32) Did Conjurer came out of the coma?
43) What happened to Tyrant?
54) How Charger was transformed from Kane-ra into a sapient creature?
65) It saying "Devastator originated from the realm of Karzahni, and is reported to have emerged from a fiery crag in the barren landscape of the island". What is the actual origin of Devastator? Was he created by Karzahni?
76) What happened to Metru Nui in Toa Empire alternate universe after leaving of Takanuva and death of Tuyet?
87) How pocket dimensions are appearing?
98) Can Botar escape from the Red Star via his teleportation powers?
