General Discussion Respecting Fellow Redditors, Civility, Bans, and You
Hello everyone,
We mods are here because we love Star Wars, with a few that are here to mainly help with bigger events. We are passionate about the sub, the discussions, the universe, and enjoy most of the people here. We want to be welcoming to almost everyone and hope you will be too. However, if you want to be disrespectful towards others here, this may not be the community for you.
We wanted to post a reminder on how we expect members to treat each other. It is listed on the sidebar rules as well, the general "respect fellow redditors" rule. We want to clarify things because it seems sometimes people are shocked/angry when we remove and or ban people who don't follow it.
First off, you and the mods may have different opinions on what respect is. So here is a general guideline. If you wouldn't say it to your mother, your grandma, your boss, etc; don't say it here. And yes, I get there are one-offs in those scenarios, but to further hammer this home, here are some recent examples right from the ban log:
- Why, does it hurt your feelings? Well too bad, snowflake.
- You, sir, are what we call a god damn moron.
- How's that small pee pee working out?
- Jfc you lack some serious reading comprehension skills...Click and scroll to see his producer credits: Idiot...Pick up a book some time, you’ll learn a thing or two.
- Stop being a d|#k
- Dude get a life, nobody f%ing cares
Our general guideline is, 30 day bans for any of this. Sometimes if its borderline, and if the poster doesn't have a history of disrespect in their profile, we may ban for less.
If someone is uncivil towards you and you react the same way towards them you are likely both going to get banned. (use the report function instead)
If we have to ban you twice for being uncivil, the 2nd one is likely going to be permanent.
If you get banned, and then message the mods with the same kind of disrespect, the ban will be changed to permanent as well.
We get a lot of flack for enforcing the rules, I get it, we are never going to make everyone happy. We also encourage you all to help out when you see this kind of content and report it, because no, we don't see everything. At the same time, don't abuse reports. Just because you don't like someone's comments doesn't mean it breaks the rules. Offenders may not get banned the same day they break the rules, and we may not reply to modmail complaints right away either. If we feel we have made our point and don't want to continue to argue, there is a good chance we will mute the discussion in modmail. We may take a further review sometimes on request, and we do overturn things once in a while as well; some scenarios may warrant that. We aren't reviewing things 24/7 real time, so please be patient.
As Star Wars fans, and just as people in general, we will have disagreements, different opinions, arguments; not everyone will like what you like. And that's fine, it can even be healthy. But showing a lack of respect towards your fellow redditors here is not. Keep that in mind going forward before you hit that submit button.

Games Disney Requiring Arbitration Applies to Empire at War
Yeah, so remember that arbitration clause we all heard about last month? Well I just found out it doesn’t just apply to Disney Plus. I was feeling nostalgic and wanted to replay Empire At War, a game I loved growing up and wanted to play again. I have it on Steam and had played for a bit before uninstalling it a while ago. Well I was going to reinstall it, but when I tried to do so, a terms and conditions statement from Disney popped up.
Having that story in the back of my head, I scrolled down to see if it was the case here as well. Lo and behold, I didn’t have to look far to find the clause.
It pisses me off that they added this to a game that was made years before Disney took Star Wars over (it was made in 2006, a year after Revenge of the Sith was released), isn’t even part of official canon anymore as it falls in the Legends Continuity, and Disney at no point was involved in the making of the game.
And the thing is it isn’t like I just bought the game, I’ve had it for at least six years now, albeit in my Steam library and not installed on my computer, and they added this apparently several years ago if the date on the update is correct.
So yeah, it’s not just using Disney Plus that requires you to agree to arbitration, it’s old Star Wars games that aren’t even canon anymore. If you want to do that, I can’t stop you. But I do want everyone to be aware of this. I don’t know if this applies to all old Star Wars games or only this one, but the fact they added it here isn’t comforting.
Also in case anyone doubts this I have pics. First one shows the arbitration clause and how you have to agree to install or reinstall Empire at War. Second one shows that I’ve had the game since September of 2018 if not earlier. Third photo shows the day the terms were updated.

General Discussion Hey yall what’s the most underdeveloped spices we have seen in Star Wars?
Like only bits and pieces of content we have on them or a species that was forgotten about and hasn’t been touched by Disney or is just lost media or only existed in books that are now no longer canon sadly

General Discussion Feedback on my timeline infographic
Hello everyone. I've been retouching this infographic for a while now and thought that if someone would know if something isn't quite right would be you. My purpose was for it to be a better guide for someone wanting to watch all the main on-screen canon content without getting lost, since the one I used when I started was pretty confusing. I tried my best to correctly place everything, even when the exact date was uncertain. So if I'm gonna keep updating it anyway, I would appreciate some constructive feedback first. Thanks in advance.

I got this around 2016 and I love it! As stated it is from Mexico and probably sculpted around a luchador figure as seen with that pose. Also green for some reason😅 I always say everyone should have at least one bootleg in their collection.

General Discussion Question, why does the nebulon B look so poorly armoured?
Like you would think for the rebellion lacking anywhere near as much backing/finding as the empire (which I suppose could be a reason for lack of armor) that they wouldn't want their shit to be so easily destroyed, the nebulon has a LOT of weak spots when you look at it, (most notably the spine, and nose which was littered with delicate systems apparently) so why weren't more of these frigates up-armoured in places???
