Question about the barnacle forests: after you scan the uplink to reveal the barnacle location, is it supposed to show up on your nav panel? It didn't show up in mine but if I pointed my ship at the planet it would let me target it. Just wondering if this is what everybody else was experiencing as well.
Just very convenient that it pops in right on the pulse....Could just be Luck but who knows right now...
IMO that really really looks like a "rank" system when all in a line like that....Its possible barni's are at the "Bottom" since they are used for collecting something?That or its just variants
Havent left the site yet, but in my ship and 'Thargoid Barnacle' is displayed in the nav panel.
ed: The location was still listed in the nav panel as I left the planet. Last I checked I was .32Ls out.

I agree completely! Nothing we've seen conclusively proves any hostile intent.
And IIRC it was in a book where it was said. I dont remember which, but they only attacked us back in the day because of a trigger happy admiral
Wasnt that about one faction of goids tho? saying that they would have been peacefull to us if we didnt attack while the others were more aggressive?
Thargoids are supposed to be peaceful
Orrasians too
Klaxians were never around so there an odd one out
Yeah, I said it was probably just bad luck with the positioning. lol. I had a similar encounter last night when I dropped 4 meta alloys.

In the grave yard USS we're finding, how likely is it that the Thargoid we find when we drop in isn't the one that did the damage?
For all we know they could be suffering from the same problem that the bugs did in Enders Game, they may not know we are all individual conscious beings. They might think we are our ships and are just a resource. Just like we treat their barnacles. I am willing to cut them some slack even if they have blown me up multiple times.
They could just be picking up survivors in a survival effort. They could also see how we humans treat each other and assume that we would only be out here to harm or profit from the death of fellow humans. Who knows what they think. They are aliens after all.

So - about this thread....
Its already gone over Brett's forum limit of 10,000 posts, and as usual is the main focus of all things Alien....
The trouble is that there are multiple sides to the story and it does get confusing as they interweave each other in the big thread.
So, how about some dedicated threads to follow , for example;
- the messages the thargoids are sending during the encounters
- The collection behaviour
- aggression and what triggers it
etc.
There is a nice shiny new forum for Mysteries and Aliens, lets make use of it and break with the old way that was basically forced on us by the way the forums worked then.

The last post before yours was in 2017. So clearly it's not.
And yet once again you necro a thread, despite having been asked not to previously, and despite it being against the forum rules.
The thread is no longer stickied and the post also explains how it will be replaced.
