  • Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com. Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
  • For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
  • Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
  • Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
  • The rules regarding NSFW links have been updated. See here for details.

In the bad future, humanity and the Sentinels teamed up to fight the mutants.

The humans let the Sentinels use genetic engineering to win the biological arms race.

The result was not humans but with superpowers. It wasn't transhumanism.

The result was homo sapiens sapiens going extinct as the Sentinel made Homo Novissima took over the Earth.

"Wise Man" was replaced with the "Last Man." And in thise case, it's apparently quite literal. They are a different species, not like the hyperbole of mutants being "Homo Superior" which is just garbage.

Humanity won the war against mutants but still went the way of the Neanderthal.

So it's not such a bad future for Homo Novissima, I suppose, but for humanity? They're dead, Jim.
