Never i understand your preference. You contend that all things are permenant therefore the perception is what is being relyed upon. Anotherwords, the child is allready the adult at 2 ton press vs 200 ton.
That of course discludes everything. It is of the mind that i have what i have and no one is going to get it. It is an error in philosophy and a play on reliance. So all your macho insistant insults are really not so bad.
Obviously if you were to turn your head around you would see that your thesis is phoney.
Warpath's power increased. Colossus. Meltdown. People are so worried about being wrong when the wrong case in an argument proves the case to be accurate and ongoing. It is those that are sticklers that really think they know it all, that don't have any input at all.
Sandman used to be 5 ton and is now 85 - 90 ton.
Need i go on.
LoL, Maelstrom cut your Acme brand of "The Architect" vocabulary. You are misspelling words, misusing words, making a mockery of grammatically viable english.
Colossus was UPGRADED - and if you wish to be TECHNICAL, he did not get more powerful when he AGED. How old is Colossus now, buddy?
Show me where Sandman was EVER limited to 5 tons? That being said, show me HOW OLD he was IF he was limited to 5 tons, and how old is he NOW?
Why didn't Spiderman "get stronger," if your "theory" holds true? Hulk? You did say "all mutants," right? Why didn't Absorbing Man get stronger? Abomination? Hmm hmm hmm? Lizard? Legion? Magma? Molecule Man? Hmm hmm hmm?
LoL Wolverine, if you didn't KNOW why the hell did you OPEN YOUR MOUTH?
Nor did i suggest that my line was open only to mutants or that they were segragated form it. Thing used to be 5 to 10 tons when he started if i recall correctlly. But i feel so ashamed when i don't recall that its worth killing for. Um, no.
In another post, sandman/wonderman, someone shared with me Sandmans lower limit. I checked with others at the comic store who seem to remember that being his strength.
Today he's as cool as wonderman.

i don't think it matters TECHNICALLY what ben grim is. it just shows that power/strength can grow with time. but there are to many variables to say what or who will grow with time. depends on their genetics how often they excersize or what they eat even. even though they are mutant or enhanced human i'm sure thier anatomy is pretty much the same as ours. so if we are lazy and do nothing we are not gonna get stronger. if we excersize and eat right, then we are.........

Genetics? How often they eat? LoL, what on earth?
Nobody denied that power/strength CAN grow with time (for example, if one channels energy from STARS and MORE STARS are created over time, well duh?). He said, QUOTE:
The thing about mutants is not only that their powers tend to get stronger as they age, but they get secondary mutations as well.
No, this is bullshit. AGAIN. Why is it that Xavier ALWAYS has to use Cerebro if a mutant's "powers get stronger as they age?" What about the PHOENIX? It NEVER got stronger, they (Rachel/Jean Grey) learned how to USE it. Show me PLEASE where Nightcrawler's "powers grew stronger?" NEVER did, he TRAINED and was able to better USE it. Why did not Marrow turn into one big ass BONE if her "powers got stronger?" Whoa whoa whoa, did Wolverine's HEALING FACTOR get stronger? Can he now see from New York to China since his eyesight should get stronger? Can he smell a fart in the middle of the Pacific Ocean since his sense of smell should get stronger?
Can GAMBIT charge the Baxter Building since his powers get stronger? Did HE get a "secondary mutation?"
Colossus MATURED? What? He has been grown for HOW long? Do you even know when they upgraded him? Why do you think people differentiate between AoA, Ultimate, and 616 Colossus? Why are you attempting to list what occured in an ALTERNATE universe as canon? Moreover, he was "reborn" as the NY artist - fully mature.
Give me a break. Maelstrom is wrong, period - extrapolating information that does not even exist.
For you Maelstrom, if you cannot even form a coherent sentence how do I know what you are SAYING, "idiot?"
I agree with Jfan, and not because it strengthens my idea, but because it makes common sense. You can add nutrients to your life to increase your own preferred state. Rogue works out in a comic with some sorta gravity weights and increases her strength which was originally 50 tons to something closer to 60tons. Maybe her power didn't increase on its own, but she increased it.
I guess its a question of how will we guide ourselves and our children to grow up. Personally I feel inside of me that i am constantly applying myself, working out to increase my power, and that my personal power is growing all by itself. Lets hope that it eventually comes out through my pours as contained as my outer-body merging myself inner and outer. Also that my outer-body does the same thing.
Lot of people in life never grow up, that's their choice. I look forward to what comes next, not trying to stagnate others because i can.
