Hapori Tohu disapproves of this message. Like, seriously, just no. --- I was only two when the attacks occurred, so I don't remember anything. But I've watched videos about 9/11, studied it, etc. It amazes me how horrific it all was. I just have to imagine myself in the same position of thousands of the men and women in the towers. I imagine being petrified. The thought of dying. The thought of family or friends dying. The heavy smoke slowly suffocating. I have a great deal of respect for both the survivors and causalities of 9/11. Those who died died valiantly and with honor for their country. Those who survived showed a great deal of perseverance and determination. Not only did they survive, but many of them saved others, putting their own lives at stake for the lives of others. As a nation, we are indebted to the men and woman who were affected by 9/11. Some were affected in such horrible ways as death, while others watched their comrades fall. But know this: they are the reason we still stand tall. They are the reason we stayed strong in the midst of a terrorist regime. God bless them, and God bless America! -Rez

Renewal still gives you a boost, but the system doesn't automatically boost it immediately after your purchase. Black Six has to do so manually, so you may have to wait a few days. He's super busy, so you may just want to shoot him a PM about it. -Rez

...the sacrifice that many brave men and women made. God bless America as our country remembers 9/11. We took a massive blow, but together we stood, and still stand, tall. -Rez

I'm fascinated by this word. What exactly does it mean? -Rez

Come to mother Russia, where you don't even ride the bus, the bus rides you. -Rez

I'm really not sure how to interpret this... -Rez

I think that ultimately if you truly love this site, and it brings joy to you, than you're far from "immature." In my opinion, those that label themselves "2mature4u," and for example, deem LEGOs childish or immature, are more immature in my eyes than those that don't care about being labeled "super mature." As I said, if BZP brings joy to you, and you really want to be a part of the community here, than it's totally a mature thing to just do so. And even if it is immature to visit this website, you wouldn't be the only one. We can all be immature together anyway. -Rez

I hope you like bio mechanical parts on your toast, and wood, and concrete, and whatever else is in that house. -Rez

The bus system has its moments. -Rez

My heart tells me that it will become a huge success, but my gut tells me it's not going to be nearly as popular as it once was. -Rez

I completely forgot about that! I guess it just worked out perfectly. -Rez

Fourth comic into my "drama," and I've already broken the fourth wall. What's that I said about no humor? Well, this is the exception not the rule. #4 Smokey Wants You! -Rez

That looks so beast! (Metal-pieced Bionicles confirmed!!!) -Rez

Despite how annoying this is, I am genuinely glad to see it: -Rez

I'm getting the same message. -Rez

Also, for future reference, questions like these belong in the Q&A forum. -Rez

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Music and Movies here I come! -Rez

Go to the album the photo was uploaded to, click edit on the rightmost box and then check this box on the image you'd like to delete, proceeding to finish and save: -Rez

Indeed it is. You could potentially post two thousand 1kB images if you so pleased. -Rez

The 2MB of images you can upload in the gallery stack up. The two images in your album count to the 2MB just the same as the seven or eight in the BBC album. The 2MB limit accounts for any image you ever upload to the Gallery. -Rez

Gosh, that's a pain...That's $50 that could be spent on steam sales! -Rez

Well, we have to take into account that Bionicles are bio-mechanical machines: 1. Mechanical machines require energy to function. They also require an input where energy can be "plugged in," and an output where energy can be utilized. If any of those "input" or "outputs" were to be destroyed, how would energy reach vital mechanical parts of the Bionicle? Also, while energy cannot be destroyed, it is converted to heat (which is also energy, but that's irrelevant) after being used. This is why batteries do not have infinite power. The same applies for a robot. Bionicles do not have infinite power, and while they can "recharge," so-to-speak, eventually they will run out of energy. Since one could assume that a sort of "motherboard" would centrally run a Bionicle's functions and processes, we could also assume that that very motherboard would eventually lose its electrical conductivity (meaning it would decay). If the electrical conductivity decreases, the capacity for energy storage would also decrease. This runs in correlation with the idea of old age. The older we get, the slower our functions and processes work. Our brain loses processing power (after years of cell loss), the heart beats slower (there isn't enough energy to keep it and every other vital active at the same rate of that of a youth), etc. Similarly, mechanical parts decay over time. Assuming the laws of thermodynamics apply in the Bionicle universe, the metals that would make up a robotic system would eventually degrade making movement less viable and functions less probable. When Turaga Lhikan dies in MoL, his heartlight falters, and proceeds to go dead. In that sense, we can assume that vital mechanical parts, as well as biological parts, were badly damaged stopping energy flow throughout his body, and eventually causing his "motherboard" to go dead. 2. Biologically wise, very similar ideas coincide, especially the idea of decay. Biological organisms only have the energy to live for a set period of time. As vitals become frail, less and less energy is taken in, meaning processes function much slower. Take, for example, a computer. As parts get older, acquire dust, experience damaging conditions, they begin to lose power and conductivity and no longer function at the same speed they initially did. Biological organisms lose power and "conductivity" as they grow older and gradually slow down as well. -Rez

Hey, this is actually really nice! The shading is spot on, the pose is striking, the lines are smooth, I could go on. My favorite part is the hands. They're shaped differently than normal, which makes the unique. Personally, I really like them! Great work! =) -Rez

I used to listen to "Gravity Hurts" over and over and over again. It was my favorite song, as well as one of my favorite songs in general. Now, I'm not as much a fan of most Bionicle music as I used to be. Although I am a sucker for some the MoL (the movie) music. =P -Rez
