for those of you just joining us at home, some info. ]

If you're only interested in useful posts, you can skip the rest of this. I'm only out to waste the time of those who want it wasted, today.
For anyone else, color me curious.

Water, Wind, Light, Flame, Earth, or Darkness.

Pick one, please.

To clarify, "light" doesn't mean good and "darkness" doesn't mean evil, or bad. Or vice versa; there's no moral alignment to any of them.
And I didn't "skip heart", so don't bother bringing that up.

[too bad she can't see him squint at this!! anyway, we all know he is actually too stupid and because of this whole situation of being on a different world, he chooses to take it at face value]

thats stupid
if they wanted to look like heroes theyd choose earth

Oh? What makes you say that?

theres a focus on strength and protection

To some. It's not a very popular choice today, and we're supposed to save this world from destruction.

thats a stupid way to look at it

Which part?

youre assuming that the people unwillingly brought here want to be heroes

Ha ha ha. No. That's not it at all.

you said you would get a lot of people picking light because they want to look like heroes if the morality wasnt removed

i say its stupid theyd choose earth

you respond its not a popular choice were supposed to save this world from destruction

Oh, I think you missed my meaning. That so few people were picking the "presumed-heroic" options, when each person responding was chosen to be brought here on the pretense of saving this world -- it's not their desires I'm presuming, but our intended functions.

[takes a while to respond, considering over the options] so they would choose light because of intended function

Something like that.

If the Initiative had succeeded, in dragging in a unified force of people who want to be heroic, or see themselves as heroes, and I was still here, somehow, asking this question, *and* I left out the good/evil detraction, "light" would be a much more popular answer.

Does that make more sense?

no

your comment about answers being more diverse now has no baring on that at all

When did I say anything like that?

how earths not a popular choice

You've lost me.

dont you understand anything

i will break it down and i will use simple words [96, you were the one who didn't understand her in the first place.]

humans that want to seem like heroes should choose earth
theyd choose light because of its intended function which is still really stupid
doesnt anyone realize that light is a force that follows its own set of morals that goes far beyond good and evil
most humans couldnt even begin to comprehend something like that

then you come up with some crap about how were supposed to save this world from destruction since thats why were brought here

that makes no sense

I'm saying, *if* the Initiative wanted to bring people here who would help them save this world, they would pick the type of people who want to do good, and be heroes, and stuff like that. Those types, if they were following your idea of how this works, would pick "earth." But it's a very unpopular choice.

Do you understand what I'm saying now?

its the unpopular choice because the initiative chose people who arent heroes

Yes.
