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.

This was a really random bump... but it is a good time to bring up Richard's leaving of the site, for now anyway. Are we going to replace him, or do we not need one for now?
I have no idea if he's gone forever or just taking a break because of bad stuff irl, so I'd personally like to wait a little longer before putting him on Away Staff. As for another Forum Moderator, I'm not sure we need another one, but if we do my vote goes to Adman.

The community project and COM moderator list does need to be updated though, since Vultur-10 and citrakayah aren't forum mods anymore.
Projects and concepts that I have stewing around
Extended Pleistocene- An alternate future where man died out, and the megafauna would continue to thrive (may or may not include a bit about certain future sapients)
Inverted World- An alternate timeline where an asteroid hit during the Barremian, causing an extinction event before the Maastrichtian. Dinosaurs, pterosaurs, and notosuchians make it to the present, along with a host of other animals.
Badania- Alien planet that has life at a devonian stage of development, except it exists in the present day.
Ido- Alien world where hoppers (derived flightless ballonts) and mouthpart-legged beasts are prevalent.
Leto- Life on a moon orbiting a gas giant with an erratic orbit; experiences extremes of hot and cold.
The Park- ???
Deeper Impact- a world where the K-Pg extinction wipes out crocodilians, mammals, and birds; squamates, choristoderes, and turtles inherit the earth.
World of Equal Opportunity- alternate history where denisovans come across Beringia and interact with native fauna. Much of the Pleistocene fauna survives, and the modern humans that end up crossing into North America do not overhunt the existing animals. 10,000 years later, civilizations exist that are on par with European and Asian societies.
The Ditch- Nothing is what if seems..

The only place that seems like it would need any help at all is the Community Project Sub Forum and that's only when there is a lot of activity. Plus, the Global Mods seem to help out a lot in Community Projects anyways. Because I think Troll Man easily has the COM thing under control.

I think Troll Man's position should be re-titled until there are more people in that category with him. I propose he be called 'Competitions Guy'.
