In regard to TFA being favored well here in the forums, I think is not really accurate. I think instead, from what I’ve observed, are an active few on one side praising TFA, and a active few on the other side disliking it. I’ve seen quite a few less active posters post their review and the usual tends to be, “Well, it was decent, but I had some major issues with it…”
This site is indeed majorly leaning towards OT purism, which isn’t really a bad thing. This site churned out the Despecialized versions thanks to Harmy. What other places can say that? Also, Force.net I would assume gains loads more traffic than this site so you’ll see more vocal posters there than here. TV Frink’s, Hydrospanner, Lord Haseo and myself seem to be the ones whom really enjoyed it and generally don’t feel impacted by the criticisms. The majority of the posters here vary from giving it an average score to down right hating it.
The reason I wanted to chime in on that issue brought up by Smoking Lizard is because I think it was unfair to say this site is somehow less of a place when this community has done far more for Star Wars, especially the OUT, than any other place, and also because I don’t personally see this place favors TFA as a majority.
