While this is all very true, imagine while on your deathbed you get a chance to have all of that again from the beginning; basically a replay with pretty much the same output. Would you want to relive life again to embrace all those joys for a second time? Obviously there are those that want to erase the bad by resetting, but living with all the good from the very start is a very tempting offer.

Hi all
Just a notice, we recently discovered that someone got into a moderator account and started hard deleting a load of key and legacy threads...around 150 threads have been lost dating back to 2007 and some weeks ago so we can't roll the forums back.
Luckily no personal data could be accessed by this moderator, and we've altered the permissions so hard deleting isn't possible in the future
Sorry for any inconvenience with this and sorry for any lost posts. -

If life had a 'Start Over' button...

No... I've made lots of progress in life so far, and I wouldn't just throw it away.
Coming back to this, I can say there are regrets in life in which I'd like to fix things.
Coming to get to know a friend of mine more, I feel like we could've been more than friends had we had the chance to hang out much more with our family friends over the years.
In all honesty, I actually miss being intimate with her and would rather continue being in that position in her life.

But if it is the replay of my life, do I get to keep my memories?
1. If no, then what is the point of reliving it? I
2. If I get to keep my memories, then will I be forced to do it exactly the same things second time around?
2.a. If I have to do it exactly the same, I don't think its worth it. I wouldn't like a forced life.
2.b. If I can do it differently the second time, even then it will be all about chances & circumstances how the life goes ... so will it be worth taking the second chance?

I wouldn't press the button. I believe everything happens for a reason, be it good or bad. I've learned a lot from my mistakes, and have become quite wise for my age. I'm in a good place in life right now, wouldn't want to change it.

I'd change some stuff, yes.

No. I am very lucky to be where I am and my life rules anyhow.

I have great parents, fun friends, and wonderful teachers.
But I'd probably press it just to scrub off all the terrible things I've done and felt.
However, I'd start over in the beginning of my life, with great parents, soon-to-be friends, and my once perpetual happiness.

That depends. I would retain knowledge of my current life going into my next one, yes? Would my genes and birth circumstances be regenerated, or would they be the same ones that I have now?
Probably yes, but only at the absolute end of my life.

I would consider it but then quickly run away from the button. If you have seen "The Matrix" than you know about the probability of repeating the same actions that led to wherever you are today and the chance of getting yourself stuck in an endless loop of eventually pressing the button again and doing it all over again, again.
No thanks

If you didn't have memories of your past life to act upon, no, because you'd do the EXACT same things unless something resided from the old life.
New Game+ for life, if you will? I'd certainly go for that.
Or how about reloading previous saves? The world is your RPG now, guys.

Depends. If I do something cruddy and screw up my life, or if I get too old to enjoy life, then yes. Otherwise, no.

yes, just to see what happens
