Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web.

While unregistered users are able to browse the forum on a basic level, registering an account provides additional forum access not visible to guests as well as the ability to join in discussions and contribute yourself! Registration is free and instantaneous.

Your hair is too emotionally invested!

Seriously, I think the sole reason why there are bitch fights over here is because you guys get too emotionally invested in the concepts you create.

I take pride my creations. You should take pride in your creations. But there's a line between science and emotional whims.

Want to create quadrupedal birds, squid that shit rainbows, dinosaurs replacing every single organism, from trees to bacteria? Sure, but you have to realise those are not accurate visions of how life evolves. There's tons of ways to make those things come true, but they're not real insofar as our universe works.

Think about it. If tetrapods could develop hundreds of limbs, don't you think they'd do so? If birds could ignore millions of years of biological rigity, don't you think they'd do so?

You should build a wall between what you want and how it'd work. Anything can be created, but you, aspiring to be a biologist, should know that Gaea has limits, and needs external help sometimes.

Must be why I provide constructive criticism sometimes.

I guess your right. It's like that time some guy said he thought it would be better if dwarf planets were just considered planets, just so we could keep Pluto. Then I shit in his drive because he was wrong. I was only helping.

And the sad thing is that you're only proving why I am right. You're conetent with letting the world know you're insecure and you need mocking to compensate for the fact that you know jackshit about what you're getting yourselves involved with, while I'm reasonably pointing out the flaws in your projects.

This is why I'm honestly am not invisioning a great future for you guys. You have no knowledge and social skills to speak of.

Hence, I'm writing papers while you're making retarded statements on the internet. Isn't it lovely that what you mock is being more successful than you?

Can we just ban him already? He doesn't DO anything besides put down others; he doesn't have any projects and he doesn't even provide ideas for existing ones.

Whoopedy Fucking doo, you write papers? I have half a novel written and I am going to have it published, I have a method as well. I also shit Golden Candy Floss.

John we used to hold you in great respect, we could deal with your huge anti-religion rants because you were a good speccer and you used to actually produce and contribute constructively. Hell, I even pmed you for advice on Pterosaurs a while back. And you helped!

But seriously, John please change your attititude. I for one do not want to see you get banned. There are so few speccers we are like golddust, all of us. Not just you John.

C'mon, Faa isn't that bad. He gives help when asked, and all that he needs in return is a little tolerance and listening skills.

I put people down because that's my "job". I'm here to provide information. You don't want perfection, that's fine, but do put disclaimers.

Also, at least I have valid reasons to be an asshole. The "criticisms" towards me amount to whining that I broke your toys. Except the ones regarding my personality, and even then they're related.
