 SIght...

 

Just finished the Initiation test and hell when will people stop repeating this stupid false info.

Once for all, the Mayan never ever predicted the world will end in on 21/12/2012. Consider this date more like a change in the civilization and even changes that could bring a new era, a better one for all the humanity.

Some people like to frighten others and even make $$$ doing so. Even look below for more accurate info.

The world doesn't end, but humanity almost does until that hot scientist chick teams up with the remaining Predator to kill the Alien Queen.

Oh okay... well thank you for getting the "facts" straight.  I was honestly worried since I hadn't consulted my Mayan calendar lately, but if that is what is going to actually happen I'll just make sure to pack my swim shorts for the big day.

 

How dare people like Funcom go around misinforming us about this, I just hope they don't take similar liberties in their documentation of werewolves, zombies, and vampires because they could really start a panic among some people who don't know the real truth.

The only thing that will end is Barack Obama's first term as president in 2012. Nothing else is going to happen haha

Actually, the world ended in 1999; we just don't know it yet since we are still all in the Matrix.

2012 is the first scheduled Patch Day for the Matrix, and well, you all know how patch days go...

The date 12/21/2012 ushers in the end of one age of humanity and the beginning of the new age.

Word on the forums is that its the release date for the game, but im not so sure, i think it will be out sooner.

OP: which faction did you come out with?

Don't bother rerolling. Just increase your eating habits and you can have both!

saying the mayans predicted the end of the world in 2012 is like saying allstate insurance predicts the end of the world dec31 2009 when their free calandar they gave me ends.

If they could predict the future they wouldnt have made a calandar that outlasted the civilization.

Well then, Hello my brethren. Check out the forums on The Secret World, tons of great info and lore on there. But be warned! Do not fall for the falsehoods of the Dogmatic Templars, its better to let them dig their own graves....

I don't know about the end of the world, or humanity for that fact, but I do know the Mayan's knew what they were talking about.

The date in question 12/21/12 will find our sun parrellel with the center of our galaxy. Many scientists have stated that the results could be as simple as Solar flares or as massive as a magnetic polar shift that will tear the contenents apart. 

Personaly I think our alien masters will return on that date and try and re-enslave hummanity.

Personally I think that the same thing is going to happen that has happened on every end of the world day so far - nothing, nada, zip.  But that is just my personal opinion, and if the world does end I will admit I was wrong... oh wait I'll be dead.

The Maya said the the current era will end 2012. Anybody who knows a bit about history knows that. And yes, their calenders did only count the current era. Not that it matters, if they really known the future their empire wouldn't have faded like it did due to civil wars.

But anyone who is stupid to believe some nut that said the world will go under a certain date deserves to lose some money.

Fact: Thousands of morons have said the world will go under at a certain date. So far have 100% of them been wrong. The year 999 was almost everybody in europe sure that the world would end.

That doesn't mean that it is great idea to pollute, but it means that it is a dumb idea to buy books about it.

To quote Penn and Teller (well Penn at least, Teller just nods): "The end of the world is Bullsh*t".

there´s very interesting conspiracy document on youtube called Esoteric Agenda, it´s almost 2 hours long and it covers this topic quite well, if you´re interested (it covers aslo millions of other crazy things)

Duh, the mayans based everything in their calender by astronomy. They just had the stupid idea that the position of the stars affect the life or regular people.

It is true however that a big solar storm might come 2012, like the one that killed the power in Quebeck in the 70s. If it hit as bad as the one in the 1880s we might have to live a few months without electricity, that would actually kill some people but going from that to the end of the world is a great step.

Some people have teories that a solar storm could destroy the life on earth but it havn't happened since life started on earth a looong time ago so the chanse for that is as close to zero as you can get.

The world will stay for a long time, everything dies sooner or later of course but it will be later.

It's sad, but I couldn't tell you were kidding until the last sentence. There really are crazies that are truly afraid of this stuff. Nonetheless, I feel compelled to state some facts. The sun won't be parallel with the center of the galaxy (that process takes millions of years anyway, and we can't tell exactly where we are in comparison) and such an alignment is like any other, it means nothing, nothing happens with alignments.

As for a solar storm, we've just now passed the solar minimum, and the cycle is 11 years long, we won't have reached the solar maximum by 2012. It is true that a solar storm could happen at any time though, and that they can disrupt modern power infrastructure and satellites. Even if such events occur, they have to pointed right at us though. Many just fly off into space. There is no way to predict that one would occur within a certain time period aimed at Earth.

I think a world is going to be destroyed in 2012. The Mayan clearly saw in there visions the WoW is going to die!

This isn't entirely accurate, they do now know the relevance between our solar system and the center of our galaxy. It was recently discovered that at the center of every galaxy is a "super massive black hole" or SMBH. The SMBH pulls everything in the galaxy towards it slowly devouring everything over time. Since everything in this galaxy is pulled towards one single point in space, they now know the relevance of where we are to the SMBH at the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. That being said, it has been scientifically stated that in the year 2012, our solar system will pass through the galactic equator, with untold or undetermined at this time results. Though most of the scientist do agree none of them will be good things. This was recently featured, say in the last 6 months on Discovery. I am not going to dig up an episode # or anything, if you are that interested I am sure you can find the airing yourself. However, the science behind this was sound, and it seems very plausible that when this phenomenon occurs in 2012, something not very good will happen for sure. It may just get hot outside, we might have some super quakes, we could have a polar shift, who the hells knows. Whatever it is, I guess we will see in 2 years.
