In some of my conversations with others, I've noted that people who arrive here seem to be from very different places. Different planets doesn't feel entirely surprising to me, but I've met a few from my planet - Earth - who are either from varying years or even what seems to be alternate timelines.

Is this sort of thing normal to anyone here? Something you've had experience with? This place doesn't seem like it has the technology for something as advanced as manipulating time and space, but I guess looks can be deceiving.

For those of you from Earth, I'm curious about a few things:

What year was it for you?
What was the state of the planet? I.E. global warming, population, food supplies, etc
Had the government taken any steps to fix the state of the planet?

I'd like to hear more about worlds that aren't Earth as well, if anyone is willing to share, but as I don't know the science or the history, I can't really ask specific questions to compare it to my own home.
