... This has become rather pointless.
Perhaps BmB just tried to explain his point of view in front of the overall snow ball chain reactions.
The discussion may even be interesting if people stopped thinking "I'm right - You're wrong - I'm right - You're wrong" as well as seeing offenses in every word they read !
Damn ! Why reading a disagreement here by an unkown person always make your heads explose and pump your egos ?!
Discussion is one thing, pressing a moot unpopular point is another. Furthermore, as discussions like these have disintegrate into furballs before I can safely say that Ady has better things to do concerning ESB Revisited or recoup, rather than countering extremely started retorts. "I'm gonna freak if I don't see such and such added" etc... no your not, calm the fierfek down.
I would also like to say that forcing such issues is not conducive to Ady's stress levels and we all know about his overall condition. It's never fun to restate reasoning or being on the defensive because someone won't let go of an issue. This stopped being a discussion a while ago and turned into a extremely pointless debate. I only check these boards every few days for this reason. Not saying debate its bad, but it's the manner it's carried out... with extreme words and harsh criticism leads to anger and the like... Reminds me of politics actually... Anyway, bottom line is that we all care about this movie, that much is clear, but it is the manner in which ideas/suggestion/criticisms are offered that is often the problem... it should be civil, not extreme, other wise it escalates quite easily.
I am easily guilty about pressing a point too far and I do what I can to improve upon that. The EU for example... I'm well aware Ady doesn't give a care about the EU when it comes to Revisited. However, it just so happens that Ady's additions is in correlation to the EU in some cases. Why? Because the EU also attempts to give validity to Lucas's mess in its own way much like Ady's Revisited gives validity to the OTs continuity and overall look (ie Blue ion canon).
Regardless, I have debated with Ady on points as well and we have never disintegrated into saying extreme things because there is always a measure of respect and trust. If we can foster that ideal in what we all say here then discussions can happen without the "I'm right, your wrong" mentality. No one is ever really right, nor is anyone really wrong, but Ady in the end has the final say, cos this is his edit. It is IMPOSSIBLE for us all to agree all the time, but it is perfectly okay to agree to disagree.
Oh... and if ego could power shields, I'd be invincible. ^^
