Recovered this from before chat crashed and posting here now in case I can't get it to Sam before things happen:

Uh hey Sam is it alright if I suggest things For like Splationian stuff It's mostly longevity relating to the color thing Like The Cyan colour one, as it says on the species page, has the highest average lifespan Being more than a human/gridmask's, at around 150 years The next three notable colours, green and blue, have a lifespan shorter than the average human's, being around 75 years Then yellow and purple (also the brown mutation) have about 50 years And red and fuschia have about 25 years And like The shorter lifespan's thing kinda has influence with the culture a bit Being that the cyan guys, living the longest, do seek to expand their knowledge a lot more than the others, since they have a lot of time to do so Which is why the people have such interests in science It's kinda the same for the blue and green guys but they usually never get to the levels of intelligence reached by the cyan guys, as their lifespans are too short and they usually try to make something of their lives other than studying The lower ones are actually kinda usually uneducated Because, you know, with only 25 years of life, they'd only have a year left to live after getting out of a four-year college Ignore my bad math there aheh And Also Their biological bodies are similar to humans, but they stretch out their lifespans to fit 100 years to 150 years Meaning that their bodies grow about 1.5 times slower than a humans does Which kinda makes them shorter and younger for a while The same goes for the other guys, fitting 100 years to 75 years, 100 years to 50 years, 100 years to 25 years, etc. So they would actually grow more quickly than humans But in the cases of the guys who live 25 years, and also somewhat for the guys who live 50 years They kinda cap out growth for a while and then age a lot in the last bit of time before their life ends
