Phew! Just saw this thread. Thanks for taking some sage advice, Cable-X1. I know a lot of people sympathize with how you feel here, but I think you were right not to take the blaze-of-glory approach. However, the post-'96 purge was a good move. You've taken your first step into a larger world.

I admit that I got caught up in the mob mentality of this, too. Well, obviously I did because I posted here, and, while I would never do it myself, I felt sympathetic to and excited by Cable's cause. While part of me still feels like it would be an exciting release and giving the other side "what they deserve," my more rational part has finally taken over, and I know it would do more harm than good.

However, I still feel there's no reason topics arguing for the OOT and against the SE and PT shouldn't be accepted and even encouraged at sites like SW.com and TF.net. After all, they're general Star Wars sites, not (supposed to be) devoted to one incarnation of Star Wars like we are. Conversely, I still feel that dissenting views should be accepted here as well. I know I've said it before. There are some guys who come here and act holier than thou, saying we should be grateful and don't know what we're talking about. But there are others who come here politely suggesting something PT or SE supportive, and most people just run to jump on his case. And I feel that's extremely hypocritical.

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

I was going to go have some fun over at star wars.com too and piss some people off but it lost its appeal after Zion started speaking some sense. Thank you Zion I just about made a stupid descision.

I have an account at StarWars.com but've never posted there, let alone read any of the forums. Can it be any worse than TFn?

Speaking as one who has been banned from TFn before, I kinda wear it as a badge of honor nowadays. But If you really are tired of StarWars.com go ahead and post whatever you want, whatever tirade, but in a way such as listed before, the logival reasons why ytou have had it with Star Wars. As your last sentence, say your farewell. Then in that way, you leave on your own terms -- before they press the ban button.
There's good in the Original Trilogy, and it's worth fighting for.

For the record, it was MeBeJedi who convinced me. He identifiied with what I was trying to do and then convinced me not to do it in a polite and non-condescending manner. Hear that, Zion?

I still think it would be fun though.....but I see how it could be bad for the board.....if I can't get banned, could I at least kick Lucas in the nuts somehow???

I think you're directing your anger towards the wrong target. I understand exactly how you feel, but why don't you do something more constructive and write a kick-ass, scathing "open-letter" to George Lucas. Send it to Lucasfilm, and to all of the press contacts in the "addresses and contacts" thread in this forum. You might also want to send it to some of the Sci-Fi magazines, they may actually print it. Getting banned from SW.com isn't going to accomplish anything.

I was really pissed with the trolling that was going on in TFN and I was this close to posting something nasty, but decided not to. I don't want to insult anybody who genuinly loves the PT and the SE's and Lucas and logs on at forums to find information (I mean, they could be children for all I know). I have a sort of "Live and Let live" attitude, but TFN really got to me. But it's just a forum. The best message is to stop posting all together. Let the flamers flame each other untill there's not one SW fan left. If they get off on insulting the O-OT fans then so be it. And if the mods allow this and take part in this, well I'm not gonna play their childish games anymore. So I kinda understand with how you feel. TFN has zero respect for the O-OT fans, so there is no reason to hang around. And no reason for me to show respect for their opinnions. But that doesn't mean that I should start insulting people who really love and enjoy the PT. I have nothing against those people. Let them enjoy what they enjoy. It's the people who insult my love for the O-OT that annoyes me. But those kinds of people usually post anything just to make you angry. They aren't even looking for a discussion. Unfortunately TFN mods allow this kind of behavior to occur. They even participate in it. If this is the sort of behavior that is going on in SW.com, then I suggest you just leave the place and find another forum where you can discuss you ideas more freely. A forum like this one right here

he is more CGI than man now

I'll think of more later
