thats just as likely as the predator scenario

it is extremely likely that oxygen would be extremely toxic to most extraterrestrial life. its super corrosive and has a tendency to mess up most forms of organic chemistry, it would probably be super deadly to most life forms out there. thats the way it used to be on earth too, until one microorganism developed tolerance to oxygen and then started *producing* it, killing >99% of life forms in the planet

That and the oxygen thing is probably a hint that the (in the story) creator of this is some kind of machine species or metal species. Since Robots don't need oxygen and are weak to magnetic fields. Considering that it was inspired by a post that referenced another post called "They're made of meat" which was written from the perspective of robots talking about Earth this seems likely.

Definitely. Even "north" and "south" are arbitrary, we just agree to which way is north and which way is south.

It's even worse: one human was one given a knot to untie, however they could not figure it out. So, the human simply cut the knot into pieces. If a human for one reason or another cannot solve a problem, they will destroy it.

humans also seem to be growing and learning exponentialy its unknown how many humans there are exactly but the learning part is known since we observed them they have created copper swords and it took them 4 times as long to get to iron swords then from those iron swords to nuclear bombs we predict they will have achieved ftl capabilaty within the next 150 galactic rotations once they have achieved ftl they will bring weapons since humans are violent as depicted in what they call ''tv series'' which are presumably future plans and historical documents they plan on putting plasma based lasers on all their vessels also expected new technology is terraforming expected to be achieved within the next 234 rotations once they achieve that any planet they land on will be theirs

They wanted to warn others, not to get more aliens to wanna visit

@@daltonbecker4494 they still solved the problem in many cases, such as if that knot was actually what was keeping a shopping bag closed, which had food items essential for that human's survival.

As for my species, this is correct. The Protoss obtain their nutrients from the gaseous material around them. Furthermore, we have the Khalai Caste for collaboration. Finally, multitasking is difficult due to a rampant mutation from an earth organism damaging the primary thought processors.
