MOD IMPORTANT: An Announcement Regarding MakingStarWars

Hey guys,

Over the weekend, we became aware of some profoundly unsettling and serious accusations concerning the owner of MakingStarWars, which have since been verified through evidence and numerous testimonials. After discussing the matter internally, it has been decided that all content from the website will be banned from the Jedi Council Forum effective immediately. If you haven’t already, please read the announcement of this policy by our Head Admin in the Communications forum. This action is not being taken lightly. We maintain a strict, zero-tolerance policy regarding Harassment, and collectively feel it is our responsibility to protect this community and the people within it from those known for harassment.

We suspect this news will come as a great shock to many of you, as those of us who have spent the past seven years excitedly discussing future Star Wars films often treated leaks from this website like early Christmas presents. We want to make clear that our forum-wide ban of all content from MakingStarWars only pertains to content directly from or relating to the website and all related media, including podcasts, YouTube, etc. Once that information is picked up by other sources, it is free to share. This is not dissimilar to our policy regarding 4chan: wait five minutes, then share a secondary source.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to anyone on the New Films team via PM. Additionally, this is as good a time as any to remind you that if you have been harassed or made to feel uncomfortable in some way on this forum, please reach out to a moderator or admin who you feel comfortable with and bring the matter to their attention. Our priority here is you all, and we're here to help in any way we can.

Sincerely,
The New Film Staff
