Most of this is already discussed in the thread.

>The bricks were cut imperfectly
What makes you say that? They fit together more perfectly than any other stone/brick structure made by man even in modern times.
They're irregular, but not imperfect.

>They didn’t.
If they joinery was weathered then the blocks would not fit together as tightly as they do. So that has to be ruled out. The shape and tightness of the joinery you see today is how it was made.

>They also used these tools every day and became proficient with them
That's still not an explanation of how, in fact it's basically saying that you don't know how but you assume they figured it out somehow.
I agree, they did. Obviously. But the goal of this thread is to figure out how.

>no quarries bro
Who said that? We do find the quarry's, and it only adds to the mystery because we can confirm that many times the blocks travel hundreds/thousands of miles before being put in place.

What makes me say that is in the image OP posted, you can clearly see where the brick on the right was cut to fit with the two on the left. Modern technology can produce better cut stones.

>If they joinery was weathered then the blocks would not fit together as tightly as they do. So that has to be ruled out. The shape and tightness of the joinery you see today is how it was made.

I don't really understand what you're trying to say with this one. The bricks were placed there and weathered over time. Again, pointing back to OP's image, you can see how to bricks slope 'inward' and that there is a lot of dirt/sand/debris in between the bricks. Meaning, that debris was flung at the bricks for years, warped their shape, and is now caught in between them.

My only point here was that it wasn't aliens or whatever as some people imply. I don't know their exact methods, but Occam's Razor would suggest they just got really good at cutting them after years of trial and error with primitive tools.

Probably should've tagged the actual post, but this is the one I was referencing.

Because that block is falling out of its place. The point of the OP image is to show you that the curvature is not just the front face, the stones are cut such that they follow each others curves all the way to the back of the wall.
But where the wall is not falling apart the joins are extremely tight, which would not be the case if the joints were weathered. For example, if you're saying over time the connection on the left side of a block gets tighter due to erosion, then it should be looser on the right side.

If that happened to every block on the wall it would be falling apart. So weathering cannot explain it. These stones are still packed together as tight as can be, this is how tight they were when the wall was made.

>I don't know their exact methods
I'm glad you can admit this, and this is my position too. We don't know the answer.
>My only point here was that it wasn't aliens or whatever as some people imply
The only difference is I'm not ruling anything out, although aliens seems even more ridiculous than the simple idea that they had more advanced technology than we give them credit for (or they knew of some trick we haven't rediscovered yet).

I kind of get what you're saying about the weathering debate, and I'm actually inclined to agree to a certain extent. I'll leave it at that though, because I don't want to spend my whole Sunday night arguing lol.

>the simple idea that they had more advanced technology than we give them credit for (or they knew of some trick we haven't rediscovered yet).

I can definitely agree with this. I think its more than fair to say they were far more advanced than we know of. Something similar to this that I find interesting is Antarctica, and all the strange discoveries that have (allegedly) been made there. Some of it is bullshit, but surely there are grains of truth in there somewhere.

>I'm glad you can admit this, and this is my position too. We don't know the answer.

I just try to keep a level head. I'm glad you've been rational and not acted like an ass, thats hard to find on this board. Cheers, man.
