While it do seem like a straightforwardly bad idea, it is interesting to hear that temporal alteration is possible in some subset of universes.
Are you able to provide more information regarding the context of this statement?

I wasn't planning to mess with time! But thank you for the warning! I WILL NOT MESS WITH TIME!

I agree! Time-travel was recently decriminalized, but that doesn't make a good idea.

It may sometimes be the case that things that are safe in one world are dangerous in another, and vice versa. Please exercise both appropriate caution and common sense.

Seriously? The same phrasing again? And I have to use the full six hours? That's not the minimal stable time loop! It's not even close! This has got to be intentional! Someone has a lot to answer for...

Potato? Can you see our messages at all, or are you talking to yourself or something?

Speaking of time travel, I agree that it's a bad idea.
Evidence seems to indicate that there existed a condition within my universe wherin all the problems were eventually sorted out, and a godlike civilization maintained the stability of events from the distant future. Then, there was a war, and Skafoi was used to manipulate the timestream on a large scale, and the world retroactively became far worse, and instead of an ultimately bright future, the end of time became the entropic decay of all things, with nameless horrors seeking to devour all light and life.

How was there a war with a godlike civilization maintaining the stability of events? What evidence suggests this?

It's complicated, and I'll admit to not having all the details. Time-travel does strange things to causality, and it's entirely possible that no coherent version of events exists. See the documents I uploaded in the Book Exchange thread (specifically, the one on Lemuria) for more information. What information we do have indicates that there once was a civilization known as the Terminals that once had a utopian civilization far in the future, and they had all the knowledge and power you'd expect of a technologically-advanced society with billions of years of advancement. They don't exist anymore; in their place are what some refer to as the Cold Ones, diffuse and hostile intelligences that exist among the entropic chaos of a cold, burnt-out universe.

That sounds suboptimal.
Is anyone working on fixing it?

Not my department, but my understanding is that yes, there is. There are also people working to ensure it stays broken, and people trying to break it worse. It's kind of a mess, really.
