    ^ You have a Vader duvet!?!?!?!?!?!? I want one! *sob* *sniff*

    Sorry I can't comment on the topic at hand. I am relatively new to JC and FanForce, but am not new to moderating or posting on Star Wars fan forums. I've had 4 years experience posting/moderating elsewhere on the web. From what I have read your problems are no different than other forums I've moderated. There always seems to be some tension between mods and regular posters and I don't understand why. Mods are Star Wars fans like everyone else who volunteer their time because of their love of Star Wars.

    everyone knows it's approximately 1.46 meters long when ignited.

    Bah, that's crazy talk! It's 1.45559 meters long, and you know it! :p ;)

    Seriously though, there will always be problems with administrators and common posters. It's the nature of power and those who are in charge to be resented by those who have none. It's a human thing which ain't gonna go away any time soon.

    As for geek, preferable to nerd. :)

    I think that if you could ban posters for being humourless jerks this place would be a lot better. Bans should also be given out for misunderstanding jokes, taking offence for no reason, being of below-average intelligence, advocating political correctness or posting anything in the Senate.

    I agree with Harry_Hill in that we're dealing with a dicotomy in SW fandom that exists between the original fans, which mostly consists of 20-something people who grew up on the original films and the younger people who were introduced to SW through the prequels and the EU. That's brought about a lot of conflict in the last couple years. So maybe the answer is a restructuring of the forums. This is an issue that everyone involved should have a say in.

    Restructure the forums? Excellent idea. We can start by combining Literature and 3SA, and then we can merge Fan Fiction with Communications. I foresee nothing but good from this proposal. [face_mischief]

    Maybe we should just combine the entire JC into one thread.

    Excellent plan. I like your thinking. I say we implement it immediately.

    I agree. You have the power to make it happen. It will reduce spam and it will kill redundancy.
