    Hi everybody! Valerius Dover here! I'm a longtime Star Wars fan, but I've only recently begun using forums online. I'm an 18-year old Swedish-American currently residing in Sweden, having grown up in the US. I'm the kind of person who finds it difficult to hate anything, so I'll say it flat out....yes I like the prequels. :D

    I hope to contribute as much as I can with optimism!

    Thanks for the welcomes! I'll set up an avatar soon and be all set. Although I reside in Sweden, I am an American fan all things considered. My actual Swedish communicating ability is debatable. I may pop in there a few times if I'm curious, but I'll mostly be sticking to the main site.

    Valerius Dover: Welcome to the JCF! If you like the prequels, maybe you are interested in joining the Black Sun game set in the same time period.

    Welcome Valerius Dover! :)

    I'd would have suggested your local FanForce (FF) as well, if JMK hadn't been faster. It's really worth a visit. :)

    Since you're just 18 years old... wasn't it hard to move from the US to Sweden? Leaving all friends, your home, hobbies, etc? It sounds pretty cool as you write it above, but I think I'd would be just sad, if I were you. So much respect that you see it positive. :)

    Enjoy your stay! :)

    ^Actually, yeah, I moved at age 14, the worst possible time to move. Left behind friends and now I have to import games and DVDs from the US in order to play them. However, I got better and am doing pretty well here.

    At 14? Really not a good time... Hope you found some new friends during the last four years already. And it seems you are doing the best out of it. That's pretty cool! :)

    I feel your pain mate, I'm an Englishman who lives in Finland. Really difficult language-wise.
