I believe I've already said this but I'm absolutely loving the insane troll logic in this thread.

I mean magic god aliens?

Weretigers?

Copper not being an element?

F*cking golden!


So you don't find all the "I wanna bang er romance everything" threads insane, but this you find insane?

"In the beginning...monkey-men around the world wandering aimlessly, then they found mineral composite of copper on the ground, they pick them up, they don't know what is it, they just pick them just because they want to pick them...then they rest awhile, they create fire somehow...and then they look at the mineral composite and wonder what to do with it...they toss it into the fire...the mineral composite melting, they all happy seeing the thing happen and going monkey...then they pick up stone and smash the thing...and lo....Copper Age begin..." - unknown narrator

They didn't injure themselves in doing so?

They will likely curse the thing and don't want to touch it ever gain

Sorry i miss your question

The Divine is the source of all knowledge, before time ever existed and not bound to time

Qistina your willful disregard for all logic and reason is a beacon of humor in an otherwise bland forum.

Please keep up the crazy work.

Copper and tin is far easier to work, than iron. They used iron in the Bronze Age, but not widely, and not very effectively.
Humans didn't learn to work metal until very late in our evolution. And since copper and tin can both be found naturally, and doesn't ahve to break stone for it, and both are obviously harder than stone, the first humans, did not have to think too much and long about the fact that these metals would be better for tools. After that would a period of experimenting follow, and soon they would have learned to work the metals.
And you can make a stone tool, by simply slamming two rocks together, until one of them reaches the sieze and shape you want....


How they melt copper and tin? using stone smelter?

Copper didn't appear naturally, copper is also mixture of metals

How they learn to make copper and then mix it with other metal in the right amount to create bronze and using what tool after the stone age?

Edit : the stone work (this is the right term) are made in mass amount with the same shape, same design and the same furnishing, they are not created via try and error...try to make two same stone knife design by the method you mention

:mellow:........... No, copper is not a mixture of minerals, you are thinking of Bronze.... Copper, on the other hand, is  an element, and it occurs naturally even on the surface, though it does occur for more commonly and in larger quantities below the surface. Also, you can work copper into shapes and simply pendants without even melting it, you would just have to work it with a stone tool, which humans had also discovered at that time. 
And by the time they invented Bronze the first forges had already been created and used, so the creation of Bronze would not be that difficult. If you are asking about how they discovered it, it was simply trial and error, by mixing the two elements, copper and tin, they discovered that the alloy was a superior material for especially weapon making.
And yes, the first humans did learn to make their stone tools through trial and error, all technological advancement is through trial and error. But once they have found the proper technique, they start to mass produce, which is why all the arrowheads and spearhead and various stone tools, appear to be of the same shape, roughly anyway.

Qistina: Copper is not an element, Cuprum, Cu 29, is the element


"Cuprum" is latin for "copper".

Same thing, different languages.

Actually, there was one

And now this thread's about romance thanks to the very people who hate it. I'm just gonna sit back and savour the irony for a while.

((Also, I'm with Fil, "Omnimancer" sounds too badass to be negative.))

How can you be not bound to time if it was before time existed? Logically, you can't have something happening before time exists, as it'd just start happening along with time. And what form is this knowledge in? How does it communicate?

okay, let say you are right and i am wrong about copper, fine...but the question remain, why would the ancient human want to meddling with copper if it was so easy to find on the surface? If it is so easy to find on surface why they don't use it before? Why must wait for a very long time and use stone work first then using copper?

If you say human not yet developed to think about using copper then that just assumption, there is no evidence to support it. And if you say earth don't pour out copper on the surface that is also assumption and no evidence to support it.

Again, what tool human use to forging metals. Why and how human around world thinking the same thing? The world is big, human is not just one or two community but spreading and not meet with each other, but human in Asia and in West thinking the same thing that is playing with copper and stones?

That is why Evolution Theory is remain a Theory because it lacks evidence, Evolutionists always playing with assumptions, find one thing then you have mountains of assumptions and they make it sound believable. They pay actors, artists, movie industry, medias to missinfo the people. Just because some people don't like religious idea, they take Evolution Theory instead as their alternative, while the theory itself have become a belief system.

No, i don't want to bring this thread into atheism vs religion because this forum is not about that, but my point is you can believe what you want and believe some things as true or not. What you think as true is false for others, what you think as false is true to others. Evolution Theory for me is entertaining but not viable, it is more a fairy tale than science. For me, the theory is sound as crazy as the scientologists want to explain about aliens, and how i want to explain how magic work in my family. I don't mind people laughing because i laughed too seeing how people laughing to each others in the matter about what they believe in and what they want to believe

Why human are like such?

I don't laugh when a Hindu said there are millions of Gods and Goddesses for each things in the world, that is what they believe in, i disagree but i don't laugh. I don't laugh at Christian saying the God have a son, that is what they believe, i disagree but i don't laugh at them. But i laughed at people who believe in Evolution Theory who laughed at other peoples who don't believe in that crap....yes, i say it is a crap, because it is a theory and not religion, it is okay to say it is a crap

^^^ I would try and help enlighten you, but my previous experience "discussing" things with you has led me to believe you are guilty of what it is you accuse everyone else of doing, believing what they want to believe in.

If you really want to know, the first thing I'd do is take the time to investigate exactly what a theory is in science. You seem to be under the impression it is something little more than a guess without much supporting evidence. That is *not* what a theory is in the scientific community. in fact, it is almost precisely the opposite. For something to be labeled a theory in science, there has to be a fairly strong standard of proof to make said theory viable.

Omnimancer sounds like the title of a comic book villain-god with cosmic powers of creation and destruction. In the time it would take to say his true name, galaxies would flare into existence and sink back into the abyss. Hearing the first syllable alone would sear the flesh from your bones and drive you into the depths utter madness.

 This.   Gravity is also termed a 'theory', Quistina, but I would strongly suggest against scoffing at it.

Copper was not the first metal humans worked... The very first metal we effectively worked was gold, which also occurs naturally on the surface, the second was meteoric iron (that is iron from metorites if you have any doubts), which is the only form of iron to occur "naturally" on the surface. Then humans discovered copper. Now you have gold, which is a beautiful element, but it is not very common, so using it for tools or weapons was not feasible, since the rarity of the metal, made it very attractive for kings and chiefs to obtain jewelry made of the metal. Iron, was hard and strong, but very hard to properly work in the primitive forges of that time, and it was extremely rare to find any, given its meteoric origins. However iron was not beautiful like gold, so what little iron that was possessed by the early humans, was often made into tools, or even more often weapons, since iron weapons was without equal at that time. Copper on the other hand is both beautiful and hard, and even better it is very common, and easy to work, this lead to the widespread use of copper in jewelry crafting, tool crafting and weaponsmithing, and this lead to the start of the copper age.
And they didn't start to use copper earlier, because there were no permanent settlements. Once the first permanent settlements started to set their roots, a forge became much easier to handle, and thus the mass production of copper tools could begin in earnest.
And humans have been capable of using tools of all kinds since the very first ****** sapiens opened its eyes, what was lacking was the means to create these tools.

This is true, but some people are too steeped in sheep-herder dogma that they refuse to keep believing despite mountains of evidence to the contrary.

I'm still trying to decide if I'm going weretiger hunting or evil vampire alien hunting.

I'd get a bad ass coat from the former but the latter would probably be more fun to kill...

Decisions decisions.

How about evil vampire romancing while weretiger hunting? 

It will be a slightly more realistic version of Twilight.
