I don't think that saying that would give you too much trouble. "I really like you, but not that way." or "Let's just be friends." is worse than a slap in the face for me.[/quote]Aunel said:

Hey, great ideas there. You two planning to make the sacrifices necessary yourselves or do you just expect everyone else to roll quietly into their graves?Ursus Astrorum said:It'd be fairly selective. A number of experts from various fields of study to expand upon our current progress, a number of average citizens to keep a maintainable and efficient workforce, people of various arts visual, musical, and textual to maintain a working culture and entertainment focus. It would be more or less a downscale of modern structure, akin to destroying all but one country. Only I would try to keep things a bit more diverse than that.Eoin Livingston said:Would that be completely random or based on how much they contribute to the internet?Ursus Astrorum said:That's the thing: I like humanity. We've done some amazing things, and with the right guidance we can do so much more. There's just getting to be too many of us to support, and we don't really seem to care. If we made the population small enough to fit in a minor country, then we'd have enough people to progress while still cutting down on our drain of the world around us. So nature could reclaim what we took, and we can start over with the remnants of today while striking a balance between progress and consumption.Nerf Ninja said:Only 80%? you're not trying hard enough
I'd create a sterilization virus and wipe humanity off the world completely.
And like I said, I may go for more. Adam Monroe's 90% sounds promising.
So you would honestly murder billions, while keeping you and your loved ones safe, given a chance of doing it with no consequence? And you see nothing wrong with this desire?Ursus Astrorum said:
Buddy, if thats true, you sure as hell dont have the right to be part of any "chosen" humanity.
And here we have the predictable, "You're a monster!", "No, it's for a greater good." argument. Sure, I may be skewing logic in a very selfish way by sparing my own favorites, but if you were tasked with killing off five billion people, wouldn't you do the same? Don't tell me you would schedule your own for execution without the slightest twinge in your mind that surely twelve or so more wouldn't hurt the census. If you did, then you would be about as heartless as I am. Despite our differences, we're still all animals. I'm merely exemplifying population control on a more advanced species than usual.SilentStranger said:
Also, you're not considering that I'm only speaking of what I can do with today's current technology. I have a much more humane variation that requires interstellar travel, nine more habitable planets, and massive amounts of resources for the required convoys.
Greater good can be used to justify a lot of horrible things. The way I see it, either we all make it, or none of us do. It's incredibly unrealistic, and most certainly wouldnt be a path taken by anyone in power, but it's what I, personally, would do. Of course, no one in their right mind would task me with solving the worlds problems either. There's also the fact that if this would be doen at some point, then any pretenses of morality and good and evil goes right out the window. If the ones in charge dont care, why should anyone else?Ursus Astrorum said:
But that's the thing: They wouldn't know that we don't care. To them it's just a terrible pandemic. The end of the world. And so when it's all done we sweep the mess under the rug and start again as though we had no say in that terrible act.SilentStranger said:

Failing that, I would plunge the world into a massive recession by selling loans to people who really shouldn't be given them and insure them with my corrupt partners at the largest insurence company in the world and... Oh wait, someone took this idea already...

One of two: Get £1,000,000,000 orrr
Go into space have fun (wow space) then land on the moon, jump about a bit and hit a few golf balls, then jump out of my ship and fall back to earth.... in my underwear. (amusing no physical consequences means i cannot die or be hurt.)
awwwwesome

Its wierd, this seems like something I would have thought about before, but I haven't.

List (not specifically in that order):
-Take over the world.
-Enslave the human race (and other races).
-Cause widespread suffering.
-Do general evil.
-Destroy the world.
-Burn down villages, cities, forests, hospitals and fire departments.
-Film myself going on animal genocide and force all PETA members to watch. Or even better: force PETA members to brutally exterminate all animals and afterwards convincing them it was their own choice and they did it out of their own free will.
-I'm not gonna post anythingabout Jack Thompson because he sued Facebook, so you'll just have to use your imagination on that one.
-Do the finger-pyramid of Evil contemplation. Oh wait, I do that all the time already.
-Wear dark armor worthy of my evilness.
-Broadcast me laughing maniacal on every channel on radio, tv and the internet(by using virusses or virii or whatever).
-Make game makers make me an RPG containing all things currently considered unethical including rape and killing children. I want both Peter Molyneux and that guy who likes making a lot of cutscenes (like in MGS4, whose name I'm to lazy to google even though it would take an lot less efford than typing this, to be in charge of making it.(Hey, not everything on this list has to be completely evil.)
