Too bad mods understand Latin too, and I think killing all new people is against our Terms of Use xD  tongue  I'd also say you have to fix up your Latin grammar... Shall I fix that up for you ;P ?

It said that? When I translated it, it said

Re: I actually don't want time travel to be invented

how about different realitys so the timeline we are in would not be changed just an alternate would be created so when you travel back in time it is your past but the split second your there is alternate so when you come back to the future (lol) it would not be your timeline and u could never get back to your original timeline

so in effect if you time travel we aint seeing you again

Re: I actually don't want time travel to be invented

Time travel is certainly a bad idea. It could destroy the entire universe, create major time paradoxes, and frankly, it is a VERY iffy idea - who knows what could happen if, say, you killed yourself? You wouldn't have been there to kill your self...

Just watch Back to the Future  tongue

Re: I actually don't want time travel to be invented

I read a book that would solve the paradoxes.

Instead of going actually INTO that time, you would be able to watch what happened at that time in that area through the computer.

I read a book like that before.  It was called "The Time Hackers".

Re: I actually don't want time travel to be invented

I have a fear of paradoxes because it blows my mind!   yikes   I mean, what if I go back in time, and I'm in the Revolutionary War, and I trip on a rock, and then Washington trips over me, hits his head of the rock and decides that he'd rather join the Loyalists, and then... ME SCARED!

Re: I actually don't want time travel to be invented

Greetings future fellow time travelers from the past!

I'd like to attend that time traveler's convention Lightnin mentioned.  Unfortunately it was crowded and they had to turn people away, (I'll have to show up early) or that means it was a success!  Perhaps they need to have another one at a larger location and don't advertise until after it happened?

Here's some interesting discussion on the event and time travel on slashdot.

DUE TO THE OVERWHELMING RESPONSE, NO ATTENDEES WILL BE ADMITTED WHO HAVE NOT ALREADY RSVP'D. SORRY FOLKS, OUR EVENT CAN ONLY HOLD SO MANY PEOPLE.

That is why you didn't find any time travelers.  roll

If so, then wouldn't the universe be destroyed, paradoxes around every corner, and tons of other stuff? So that proves that time travel won't be invented, at least not where you can actually change stuff like talk.

Re: I actually don't want time travel to be invented

the fact is, time travel is just too dangerous.  if I had the very first time travel machine ever invented and its creator standing in front of me, I would kill the inventor and take a hachet to the time machine.

the problem is that incredibly tiny actions can have great repurcussions.  if you drop a pebble in a still pond, the ripples will spread to cover a great distance.

if you have ever read the third book of the Pendragon series, you know what this means.  at the end of the book, Bobby (who has essentially gone back in time) has the choice to let the Hindenburg (that famous exploded blimp) live or die.  at first he wants to save it, but when they go to the future, they recalculate the past (confusing)  and discover that if the Hindenburg is saved, one of the passengers will sell the technology of the nuclear bomb to the Germans, and they will win world-war-2.  end result = disaster.

when you disrupt the time-space continuum, bad things happen.

Reason 2 not to invent time travel:
The butterfly effect  tongue  There's this movie about time travelers and they go back in time to see dinosuars. A T-Rex is chasing them, and one steps on a butterfly, when they go back to the present, evrything has changed... And not in a good way. Reason 2 not to invent time travel:

lol i saw that movie! was that Tropic Thunder (or the BLAH *idk* That Thunders?)

that one girl turns into something weird at the end lol.
and those monkey mutants are SCARY  yikes

Back to the Future II Right there!

Biff buys a time machine in the future, brings to 1985 a book on sports results, bets a lot of money, then rules the world.

Funn.

Time travel is the way of the future
No one knows how it was invented. A future man will come to present day one of these days and he will tell us the secret to unlocking it!
Then in a few years after we have raided the future and stolen the technology, we will send a a present man back into the past to give them the secret so we will not blow up the universe.
Unfortunately, after that, the people of the past will rebel and steal all of our present technology

It's the neverending cycle of human greed and time travel

Re: I actually don't want time travel to be invented

There are endless reasons for there being no time machines, but GOD isn't it fun to cotemplate these theories?  Think about this: if someone goes to the future and changes it, then goes back to the present, then back to the future to correct what they originally did (if they can), then no one knows that anything ever happens.  So, in theory, there would be no difference in time machines existing (so long as everyone corrected there actions).
