I agree completely GreenCapt. I was reading that Xbox live is filled with such profanity, narrowmindedness, etc. that for many ruins the experience. I read on the next-gen Xbox360 they will have a rating system similar to ebay.com. I say this because I would love to see this on message boards so people couldn't get multiple names under the same IP, post a slew of negative simple-minded comments and like the above example ruin the experience for many. The other board members could rate you. People treat each other much better on ebay because of the incredible importance of their rating system.

I guess I get frustrated to when you start a thread with an intelligent question to get dialog and initiate conversation and some hijacks the thread with a "that sucks" or something along those lines...WHY POST THAT??? WHY?? I takes up space, is negative, ruins the train of real responses and often is a thread killer.

Damon, not to discourage you at all. I too, welcome you and love the fact that you took time to write a post (that isn't just increasing a post count) that was well thought out and something that you feel. That is not wrong, and it is not to be discounted. Even if your opinion isn't my opinion I will always welcome it when it is wrote out in that manner. Instead of "the PT sucks ass!!!!!!" etc.

There certainly is a variety of opinions, Anchorhead, not only doesn't like the PT, but EP. V and VI too. Which is cool, for him the only one is the original, some here only like ESB, some only like the OT, some say the new OT is 3,4,5...some like the PT over the OT (a bit odd considering the name of the forum)...again its cool. As long as you right respectful posts and don't trash people who disagree with you. Again it kills threads, wastes scrolling/reading time, and pisses good people off.

So welcome aboard Damon, keep posting and like the movie, saving star wars, one way or the other...Lucas gave us something to talk about and his saga, for better or worse is the reason we are here. Even the great work Magnolia has done...it all starts with Lucas. I am angry at Jar-Jar, Gungans, Ewoks, the greedo and Jabba thing, that awful song in ROTJ, and killing Darth Maul...but there are so, so many things that are cool and exciting. If only on a technical level they are fun to watch...The sounds, the imagination, the worlds, the art, the music. BTW, damon, I love that line from Padme too.
