Social Fanforce.net at 20 - Sharing Memories

It's hard to believe Fanforce.net is 20 years old this year. I've been a real nerf herder with my limited activity on here over the past few years, but wanted to start a thread on any special Fanforce memories you've had over the past 2 decades.

I got involved with Fanforce in the beginning, with Jedi Jim and M0rpheus, prior to the Phantom Menace release. It was exciting time as we were getting our first new movie in 15+ years. My favorite memories include meeting new people from all over as the website and grass roots movement began to take off.

A lot has changed over the years, especially social media and ways to join up and share the love for Star Wars. I'm glad, though, to see Fanforce.net is still a place for us to share this love.

Please share any of your memories of Fanforce and/or what you're looking forward to most in the Star Wars universe.

 

It's amazing that Fanforce.net has been around for 20 years! I got involved around the time The Phantom Menace was about to release too, and the excitement was contagious. My best memories were from meeting so many passionate Star Wars fans, whether online or at local meetups. It was like finding a community of people who shared the same love for the galaxy far, far away. I remember discussing theories and hopes for the prequels before they came out, then having lively debates afterward. I also loved how the site helped foster real-world friendships and connections, even before social media took off. Looking forward, I’m excited about the future of Star Wars—especially the new TV shows like The Mandalorian and the upcoming films. The universe just keeps expanding, and it’s fun to see what new stories will unfold.
