    Very new, very confused, but big Star Wars fan. Read the books, do the movies, dobble in fan fiction that I never finish [face_clown]. Love HP and LOTR too but SW has always been my most favorite...

    Welcome to the boards, mybacta! :)

    Confused? Why? Because of the big boards and all the things you can do here? Then I suggest to start in WNU. Here you can get a good feeling for the boards and you can ask us whatever you want and we help you. :)

    Or is it something else why you're confused? If you tell us, we could be able to help you. :)

    And about your FanFic, you should visit FanFic Resource. With all the advices and help you can get there you should be able to finish it. :)

    Ok, now I've asked a lot of questions, so one more question shouldn't hurt, right? ;)
    Where are you from? I'm just wondering. :)

    Enjoy your stay and hopefully see you at one of our social threads like the Newbie Welcome Party, hugging or the pillow fight thread. :)

    welcome mybacta! always nice to welcome new members!

    don't be too overwhelmed with everything there is. remember: baby steps!

    if you're looking for something fun, as well as meeting other users, might i suggest teh mole game. you can check it out here.

    also, a great way to forge a good friendship on the boards is to get adopted! you can either PM Skiara, or you can check it out. lots of fun you can either choose to be a jedi of the light, or succumb to the darkside and become a sith!

    enjoy your stay! glad you are aboard!

    Welcome to the JC! :)

    Since you love Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, you might enjoy our Science Fiction and Fantasy forums. There you will find various threads where you can discuss both of those series.

    :D I feel like family already!!!!! :D
    You all rock my socks....

    But as far as Skiara asking me what exactly is so confusing...there is just like so much on these things. I don't know where to start as a newbie and not get eatten alive for my relative lack of knowledge about SW-ness. I read the books and all but...you know.

    THANK YOU ALL! [:D]

    It's great that you like it. [:D]

    And about your worries of get eaten alive, these boards are really friendly. The mods have a close eye on this and that it stay like it is. So whenever you get attacked, don't reply to that post or pm, just go straight to a mod or above. They'll help you. :)

    If you're afraid that your thread get locked, then you there are two things you should do: 1. Take a look through the last pages of the board where you want to post it. If you can find a similar topic, then it is better to post there instead of opening a new one. And 2. if you can't find a similar topic, but you are still afraid of being locked, then it is better to ask a mod in a PM if your idea of a thread is ok. :)

    And the best advice I can give is, take some time, lurk first and post only in already existing threads for some time. This will give you a feeling about the certain boards and you know soon what you can do and what you shouldn't do. :)

    I hope that helps you a bit. :)

    All very good advice that! Do explore, and look around. Have fun. And don't hesistate to ask if you are wondering about something, many people will answer you as best as they can (and for others, take Skiara's advice :)

    See you around mybacta,
