I'm a bit short on reading the story thread, so hang on before I can start contemplating on writing a post.
Mellian:
First off, I would really suggest using the Enter key more often when posting. Honestly. My eyes have a very bad habit of skipping long columns of solid text. Sorry. 
I'll get into your story ideas later on once I get a little more acquainted with them, but you mentioned editing posts? I'm willing to do that, I recall saying myself sometime in the dark past that nothing is set in stone or something in that fashion.
If you could produce a list of what stuff would need altering, via PM or posting here, we could negotiate. 
Hey, I could extract the Stormhill part from the Story thread, and then we could take it down to pieces and see what needs to be changed, OK?
By the way, fashion does have it's 'fads'. I see no reason why today's clothing could not be fashionable in the future - do remember that data is much more likely to remain intact, and as such we might see interesting courses in fashion in the coming centuries.
Sprayber, and others (Timewarp):
I'm quite indifferent in this matter. If it allows us to 'reset' and clear all created mishaps, fine by me. It just saddens me that the saga of Greg and Filkins would be cut short.
Of course, the lifespan of an Earther is so long in the 2700's that they would still be around. Not that sure on Sym (of whom I should also have some plans stacked up), though...
GeneralTacticus:
Nothing important, but this line in one of your story posts absolutely cracked me up:

That's about all for today. You are so prolific that I have hard time keeping up.

Cyber! Thanks alot for posting. As soon as Franky posts, I'll do my posts!
Sprayber:
1. Longevity Vaccines are available to all members of the Morganite Cabinent, and government. All BoT members and Senate members have subscriptions as well. Minor members of the government, and army men will have to buy them themselves. The Vaccine is available to the public, but it is expensive, and so only the middle class and the first class can afford them. Of course, that means just about anybody except the drones can get them.
2. Morganites and aliens don't really mix well. Cepheleens are conquered, and they are part of the Conglomerate, but they aren't really appreciated, as they tend to be very rebellious, and did in fact rebel from the Conglomerate ten years before the story began, but were re-conquered. As for groups like the Bree and Gorn and Progenitors, Morganites don't usually talk to them, and every time they've come into contact with the Bree it's ended in violence. As for Tarls, they did meet up with Morganites peacefully, but no one knows the details of the meeting outside the officials of the Conglomerate. For all we know, there could have been some trades, or even some treaties.
3. As for the Terrans, we aren't bothered by them, and just up to the InEn incident we had some fairly good business going on between us. The Saturnians, of course, are our good friends.

Gee, proof that i was ignored since the beginning 
I countered kass with that saying, if genetic/cybernetic alterations were banned, then they are banning the Scions...as they are technicly humans merged with biometal.
we simply decided that Longivity and so on is hard to have access to... and also depends on the Member faction as well. For the Scions, their lives is naturally extended and are currently not suffering to much from overpopulation, but is starting to get crowded on the Dark Planet thought.... Also, when Wolf and Ross was colonized, there was quite a lot of people who moved to those systems.... and for Capella, due to distance and being a military oriented colony, not as many people went that way. That is why the colonization rush would happen, once there is somereforms concerning TA colonization regulations.

Unintentional humour is of the best kind. 
No, Longevity is not banned, it's just fecking expensive. InEn wanted to import it because the government has made it's fabrication so damn expensive; they could of imported it for a very small price in comparison to getting the materials in Sol. OK? All happy now? InEn was the sole proprietor, so currently access to it is scarce.
Earther lifespan:
Let's see. Now, health care is obviously very advanced. Genetical diseases etc. are rather nonexistant, sickness, should some sprout, can be quickly and effectively treated. On a very populated planet, nutrition amongts the public is controlled, and as such, such health strains as obesity in the West or likewise starvation in the third world is rare. So, an estimate of around 145 years for women and 135 for men, that would be an average... oldest Terran alive could be over 190 years, nearly 200, once the generation that has gained the most from the technological advancements reach that age. So the oldest Terran is in making...
Unless someone has a good point over this that supercedes.
