Star Wars Battlefront
Time

SWBF2 was my first real multiplayer fps. I used to play the pc version online a lot. A few years later I got into the Star Wars First Strike mod for Battlefield 2142, as well as vanilla bf2142, bf2, bf2 sandbox, bf2 racer, and to a far lesser extent, project reality and AIX. Good times. Of course, now that I am big on FLOSS(Free/Libre and Open Source Software)-ness, I am stuck with the next best thing: ETLegacy. Shame there aren't any real free and open source Battlefield clones...

As for the upcoming Star Wars Battlefront game, I probably won't play it, but if I did, I hope that it implements squad play and other battlefield features, as there has been a drought of T-rated Battlefield games. Sure, I'm old enough to play the M-rated games if I really wanted to, but I prefer not thinking about untoggable profanity and blood.

Random Thoughts

This exchange was the first to come to my mind upon seeing that image:

Policeman: Panda Three to Control. I'm at the junction of Mallet Lane with Athenum Road. Nothing to report. Over.
Control (OC): Received, Panda Three. Your message timed at ten fifteen. Out.
(The stolen Whomobile whizzes by, followed closely by UNIT in Bessie, then the Doctor in a gyrocopter)
Policeman: Panda Three to control. I've just spotted a silver hovercraft being chased by an old crock at ninety miles an hour, and there's a little tiny helicopter after them both! I'm in pursuit. Over.
Control (OC): Thank you, Panda Three. Signal if you need assistance. (pause) What did you say??

Get rid of Off-Topic (in it's current form)
Time

Trigger Warning Culture? What are you talking about?

I honestly agree with Bingowings suggestion, though maybe not exactly as he describes it. In my opinion, off-topic should be split into a serious section with regular moderation and a silly section with light moderation.

Either way though, there has to be some moderation to put the trolls at bay.

"Greedo shooting first, the ugly and falcon-spoiling Jabba scene, the CGI dinosaurs, and the 8-bit 1080p transfer from 2004 that was dated when it came out are hip. Anyone who wants something different is a moronic monkey who wouldn't know manna from manure."

Yes, I am comparing gb0923 to a racist from the early 20th century. He is calling the OUT the ghetto version after all. I'm sorry if I offended anybody who reads this post.

Should The Off Topic Section be more moderated?

While I do admit that off topic should have light moderation, I don't think TV's Frink should become the moderator, because then his List of Bannable Defenses will become official, and much of the fun of off-topic will be sucked out.

 Not sure if serious.

 Just the way I like it. Now you know how I feel sometimes :P
