I'd reckon exteresterials may go by something like this:

and since we're a Type 0 civilization, I just don't see us having any value to Aliens.
Pure chance? Sure. If I were an advanced civilization you'd want to map out the galaxy and universe like Magellan. But If I found earth, I wouldn't really want to talk to the humans. Their too stupid. Colonize a few more planets and then maybe you can hang with the big boys on the block. |
It sounds like you are operating on a whole ton of assumptions. What if the aliens you are so confident exist are complete ######s? They might be stuck in some sort of perpetual stone age and play hockey with skulls and femurs or something?
Who says aliens have to be an advanced race? There might be an Edmonton Oilers Planet.
