It's all a George Lucas conspiracy! I see it now! They picture the bad guys as the good guys! My mind is truly blown.

The Empire gives everyone jobs during those large projects, like building planet-destroying spaceships.

They were nice, Jar Jar Binks wasn't really visible during those.

Old men bickering. Also, the Citizen's United ruling clearly passed in the Old Republic because the Trade Federation actually has a seat in the Senate.

I have no problem with the open for conversation bit. I'm just saying that there are ways to solve the problems TET has without resorting to unnecessary measures (like moderator action).

1. How is the thread being popular a problem? 2. And how are moderators the unnecessary measure? The Spam Report thread gets us by with the worst offenders, 3. what I see as the unnecessary measure is your attempt at creating a user police state. I cannot believe this conversation is being constantly dragged up. 4. It in itself is getting spammy.


1. I never said it was.

2. Because problems here would necessarily require locking of the thread to solve, assuming the mods would even want to deal with said problems (short of shit like flaming/flamebaiting/pornspamming/etc., they don't really seem to want to handle problems here, rather encouraging us to self-police).

3. I'm not trying to do that at all. I'm trying to get everybody here to agree to certain basic standards so that this thread is enjoyable for everybody, and quality of discussion doesn't suffer.

4. Since when was a legitimate topic of discussion spam?
Lib-left. Antifascist, antitankie, anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist (including the imperialism of non-western countries). Christian (Unitarian Universalist). Background in physics.
Mostly a girl. She or they pronouns, please. Unrepentant transbian.
