They aren't all corrupted because they don't think and thus have to be corrupted by a seperate entity that does. Rampancy is a form of corruption, simple as that. Both Guilty Spark and Medicant Bias succumbed to Rampancy, which in the 40k universe equates the the corruption of the Machine Spirit. Not to mention 343 is just Chakas implanted in a Monitor's body, making him extra susceptible to corruption because he has a soul and is thus a fancy floating Dreadnought. Medicant Bias's Rampancy, although intentional, is rampany nonetheless.

I don't think I should have to remind you that the Chaos Gods are Gods with infinite knowledge and power. There is literally nothing more powerful than Chaos Gods other than another God, i.e. Emprah. Remeber what universe we are talking about.

What I am saying is that if Chaos Corruption was really that powerful, than ALL of the Servitors and Machine Spirits would be corrupted. "They aren't all corrupted because they don't think and thus have to be corrupted by a seperate entity that does." You literally proved my point on why Chaos Corruption is weaker then the Logic Plague, if the Chaos Gods are Gods with infinite power and knowledge, then they only need one Chaos God to corrupt ALL  types of machines. The difference between Mendicient Bias and 343 is quite high just to let you know, 343 Guilty Spark was a Forerunner Janitor and the second lowest grade of A.I., the reason why he succumed to Rampancy was because he was already driven insane by the Logic Plague. Mendicient Bias on the otherhand... was only persuaded/infected just by PURE Logic. And you know what the scary thing is? MB is specifically programed for one task, he has no needs or wants, he was finally succumed just by PURE Logic (He was Near Culture Mind just to tell you), this is something the Chaos Gods have not shown to do on this level of sheer logical power.

If the Chaos Gods were really that knowledgeble then maybe they should of paid more attention of where to hide the Primarchs, if they were really that powerful then why are they being backed down by the sheer pshycic might of the Emperor?The Emperor dosen't even qualify as a God, just a very powerful psyker, he himself admits it. Even Factpile.com agree that the Chaos Gods are at best still lower than the weakest Skyfather, furthermore with the fact that they Need emotions and actions for them to survive... Those are the reasons why the Forerunners would have no problems with Chaos. Please don't spew out absurd stuff of Chaos Gods being Infinite, if they were they would have obliterated the C'tan Gods and Necrons without a fight.

EDIT NOTE: And lastly I seem to forget, Forerunner A.I. have a reaction time so fast that Nano-Seconds seem slow to them, how would Chaos Corruption work against a thing that have a reaction time fast enough to predict all your movements and thoughts?
