What is with your obsession to convert the long established history of stuff here.
Seriously, ever heard of posterity?
They may be crap but they're
historical crap.
You don't just go and delete stuff from fanfiction.net if it doesn't suit your tastes. The same thing here.
Just
reboot the darn thing instead of wasting your time killing off and retconning everything.
You're making this far more complicated than it ought to be.
Just start with a clean slate then move their everything that you like. It's far less ethically questionable compared to butchering established canon.
...
Okay, let me just get this out of the way: That bolded statement is damn wrong.
Go out of your house today and ask anyone you come across the street to name ten African nations (that isn't either Egypt, Somalia, South Africa, the DRC, or Libya) and how each one is extremely unique.
They can't.Is it right to remove them from history because of that, certainly not.
I'm not being racist, I'm just echoing the general knowledge base of most lay folk on this planet who don't give a damn about the culture of "non-Hollywood" countries. Seriously, have you ever seen Lesotho being specifically identified as Lesotho in any non-obscure movie yet?
If you've got beef with cultural bias, take it to the education system.
and not so. we are here now. they are not. As titans we walk in the timeless garden of stars.
You know, that kinda implies that you're in favor of the whole "history is written by the victors" thing.
Rather unsavory, that.
first i'd just like to say http://www.gamingsteve.com/blab/index.php?topic=2225.0

You're seriously going to compare the
Barroc to a joke race?
Just because they're "unoriginal?"
If I recall, the Barroc were more active, hence contributed more to the story, than your Gradient.
Starwars is unoriginal, guess they're not good enough for this Retcon-Verse standards?
Even the Nauceans, yes the Nauceans, are just a mix of dolphin, squid and bipedal lizard. Before all the futuristic stuff, their history was a thinly veiled allegory to human development, with water-sih themes tacked in. Hydro admitted this himself.
Heck, UFO accused most of my races of being caricatures without asking first whether I had something in store for them that I just hadn't gotten into because, you know, I have a life.
some stuff is just stupid anyway and doesnt matter.
I agree with that.
What I don't agree is that races should be removed because they are "unoriginal."
As for stupid, the Graid are highly improbable to anyone who knows biology.
Guess we should remove them too.
Let's face it. If we're really anal about this, nothing much would be left.
Hairy Sneegle
what.
Just leave them as a filler race. There's no need to resort to drastically nuke everything to extinction, which is what's happening here.
