Two things:
1) You don't automatically become a Turaga when you fulfill your destiny. You have to choose to give up your power. The Nuva have fulfilled their destiny and have not become Turaga.
2) We don't know that the Mahri have fulfilled their destiny - only that Matoro did. They may have a destiny beyond that.

3. Then what about Tuyet? Surely she would have been remembered, oh and how did Lhikan know it was Nidhiki?
We only saw a very few Matoran encountering Tuyet during Teridax's reign, so we don't know one way or the other how well she was remembered by the population at large. Consider the fact that by the time she returned, the Matoran had had their memories of life on Metru Nui wiped.
True. But, this is just a hypothecy, please tell me if it's possible or no
Okay so we know that the Metru weren't wiped, so, i presume, they would remember Tuyet. Seeing how she was one of the Mangai, and what she did, would it be possible they would dislike her upon return or something? I would think Nokama would definetely remember, them being in Ga-Metru y'know. Oh and Tuyet mentioned Nokama but she was lying i think.
I can't see the Turaga having much use for Tuyet.

Yes
How, and was it ever shown in the comics?
No, it wasn't show in the comics - comics had to reflect what sets looked like, because the point of them was to sell sets. And I assume you would take it off the same way you would take off other armor.
Can matoran "put on" the adaptive armor?
No, the armor would be too big for them. It's designed for use by Toa.

1. Are the Agori and Glatorian the same species?
2. Were the Agori/Glatorian created by the Great beings?
3. Are Agori/Glatorian built by machines like the Matoran, or are they created naturally/biologically?
4. Turaga Vakama uses the word "Bionicle" at least twice in the novel and movie of Legands of Metru Nui. What is the significance of this word to them?
1) No
2) No
3) They are natural beings
4) The only thing ever stated officially about the term is that it stands for "biological chronicle"
TonksM wrote:Hi Greg,
I'm a long time fan of Bionicle, joined about 2002, loved it ever since.
I'm just wondering, what sort of time scale Bionicle is on in comparitive Earth Years?
As in, I'm guessing for a measure of time, the Great Beings used the time it takes for Spherus Magna to orbit its sun for the length of a year that the Matoran Universe has, so how long is a Spherus Magna year compared to an Earth Year?
And on a related note, does the Great Spirit Robot, and by proxy, the Great Beings, have any form of FTL travel?
1) We always used Earth time for things in stories so as not to confuse readers
2) No
1 can energized protodermis turn other Toa into Toa Nuva
2 do MU beings have breakfast lunch and dinner
3 is the Zivon the only of its kind?
4 are Chute Lurkers, Venom Flyers and the zivon related to the visorak, and did Chirox make them?
5 is spherus magna the only planet in its solar system
6 when the dermis turle population exploded in ga metru, did they reporduce on their own or did they all just migrate from other areas of the universe

1)if the toa mahri dream is to have Matoro back with them could the fusion golden being that is with the Skakdi make the toa mahri dreams true?
1) Good question. I don't think it would be the "real" Matoro, if it did. It would be a construct from their memories of him, not the real being ... it would be fake.
But if they (the Toa Mahri) simply wish that Matoro "come back to life as he ever was before his death", that wouldn't automatically bring back the "real" Matoro, an exact copy of himself before his death (so... Matoro)?
Buried.

No, just busy. And no plans were ever made for coloration, since we already knew they would never be sets.
You said Brown and Black previously. But I guess that wasn't what hey were "planned" to be. 
1: Is Teridax able to dodge any physical attack?
2: Can Jay interrupt the electron signals going to the brain, gather electrons in one spot, send electricity through someone, shift the electrons in somethings atoms and make every atom positive causing them to repel each other, or use magnetism to act as gravity?

So does that mean all the other Matoran types, Toa of various elements and other things were planned to be sets?

Pardon? Please explain what you mean
I'm saying, would the Turaga remember Tuyet, and possibly try to get the Toa against her?

Hi Greg!
I had an interesting question that may lead to follow-up questions. Since you are no longer writing BIONICLE for LEGO, would you personally relax your own policy of reading fan-fiction? I only say this because I have an interesting idea in mind on how to finish off the old Bionicle story where you can't be in any legal trouble since you will not be writing it; you also could not use anyone's ideas since BIONICLE ideas and characters don't apply to your writing anymore.No. Even if I had the inclination, I don't have the time.
Okay, hear me out for this. BIONICLE's storyline will never be finished; let's be realistic here. It is something that is truly heartbreaking for the fans. With that being said, say BZPower created a contest where applicants wrote in informal chapters of The Yesterday Quest and The Powers That Be. The community then decided what entry we liked the most. Say we continued doing this for a number of chapters per serial.
If we were to hypothetically ask for your approval for these to be canon then that would be breaking legal rules. Would you be willing to say that these chapters BZPower members wrote up and created were the most likely events to happen? This way, these could never be official and LEGO as a company could not get into trouble, nor could you; we would just be reasoning out the possibility of endings to the story that could arise. This would mean the world to a numerous fans out there. It would also allow the fans to truly connect back with the BIONICLE lore and bring it to a close. I understand that you will have reservations on this, but from one BIONICLE lover to another, would you be able to give us your blessing to create the "most likely scenario that would happen"?
Hey Greg, it is possible that an Air Tribe would exist ?
What elemental power from ninjago would you want?
