Well as i told you, i don't see the point of blowing this up. Its the first time, i've actually read all the posts in a topic...and i must say im a little disappointed. Mostly because I only see three problems, and none of you are trying to solve them. Therefor you all act like little children, who just want to be right.

1. Respecting each other (i think the whole thing started because of this), If FC wants to play with radar, let them...and respect their wishes. You don't need to play on their servers, nor do you have to convince them to changing it, simply because you dont like it.
2. The whole Tunnle/Radar/Gamespy thingy...Again who wants to use it, uses it...who doesn't, doesn't
3. Not enough recommendation, it's true that if you don't get the recommendation you should get...it's annoying.

Solving stuff:
1. Respecting each other is the basis of everything, do not make this worse then it is...respect FC and FC must respect you.
2. Do not argue about this point, everybody has their own favorite thing...let them have their thing and you yours
3. If it's recommendation you want i can help >D, Recommendation is like a brand...you have to build it up

For example i didn't even know you where a FC guy Phobos, it doesn't show anywhere.
A few tips and tricks to gain a strong brand:
1. Don't change your name, it can destroy everything you've been doing in an instant (take unit for this example, i only recognized him because of his writing style and his avatar)
2. Show off with the brand you want to be having, i use my the Darth and V for Vendetta style in everything i do. (See avatar, sig, lines and other stuff)
If you want people to recognize you to be FC, then do so...make a sig with a big FC sign, put it in your lines and stuff (or when making something say a line like: without my dear collegeas from FC i couldn't have made this happen). Then without even knowing it, people will start to see you as a part of FC and recognize the stuff FC does
And if you make something, don't be afraid to ask something in return. For example making a tutorial...you can ask if you get the recommendation for that in the topic and such.

(i can go on with this for hours, does anybody thinks this is handy stuff?)

Look, i don't give a crack about any of SWBF's alliances/clan/wartribes/flowerpowerpeople or any other so called SWBF community...
All i care for is having a good time.

A few tips on how to have a good time:
1. Respect each other, the one is arrogant, the other cranky. The game will still be played even without you.
1.1 Do not divide the community by a arguing. What has been said, has been said. He has to make an explanation or excuse why he made it, and you have to forgive and understand why he said that.
1.2 Do not ban or exclude anybody, not only will it make that person very angry, it'll also make his friends angry...conclusion: Banning divides
1.3 Definition of fun (first result of google): "Enjoyment, amusement, or lighthearted pleasure: "anyone who turns up can join in the fun"."
Enjoyment, amusement or pleasure is not made by you alone!
Everything you do was made by somebody else, the computer in front of you, the game your playing, the people your playing the game with...THEY ARE THE ONES who make YOUR fun possible.
Do not take away the fun of somebody else! (see section 1)
1.4 Do not make things worse then they are, if you blow something up it will become something worse then you want it to be. If you have a problem with somebody saying something...say it to them alone, because if you don't do that, they feel like they have to stand ground in front of the group (social pressure)
1.5 Have fun yourself, if your having a bad day, don't take it out on somebody else

[spoiler] Btw...i made these up...i don't even know if they contribute to the conversation...but whatever [/spoiler]

[spoiler] you wouldn't say it...but ima right wing person, just making that clear [/spoiler]

Heya,

I just found one of the old sites:
http://z7.invisionfree.com/SWBF_GR_Discussion

It probably has some map/mod links on it, (also some great sigs)...
+ some great old duels >D:
http://vallista.com/search.php?q=Macbeezle%2C

Anybody remembers that site?

Hey, i was wondering what kind of things you guys like (apart from SWBF)...
Not only do we get to know one another better, but is it easier to start discussions about stuff.

For example i like things as:
Films, politics, fiction+non-fiction, dueling, management, history, art, music and pubs/bars

Now as i do a lot of lurking on SWBF, i saw there was already a map featuring by KitFisto...
If there are more people with common interests as Films or Fantasy or something of the sort, it would be easy to start another featuring of upcoming movies (or movies in the cinema), featuring new (exciting) books or start to educate people on another countrys history...

I'm sorry, but i was wondering, don't the Napseeker maps belong here as well?
The maps/mods he made were originally made for MXG (if you dont count the one before that), after that it was MPC and after MPC came SWBFGamers...so i believe you could say that the maps Napseeker made were sort of the SWBFGamer community

If they are, then i'd suppose you absolutely need to have those maps in the map pack

I certainly agree that space maps rarely make us of "space," but this is due to the extreme limitations of bot routing, perhaps if a space map was developed with MP in mind it could be a lot more fun with dense cluster of asteroids and ship débris.

lol, i can already see myself flying true the asteroids...

I think the annoyance people have is not directed at your interests, it's just that you post about gundams a lot on the forum. Understand that not all of us share all interests, so some people will be a bit put off by it.

In general, don't sacrifice what you like because others don't like it. Just don't talk about the thing when others don't feel like listening.

@ Roxas i don't like podracing, just due to the simple fact i dont like any kind of racing, btw nice bookcase! im still searching for star wars books
@ Gold man, the plot of the SW prequals is a bit sucked up, but the rest of SW's history i love it so it's good to see your also a wookieepedia fan xD
@ Kit Fisto, Ive seen all the films already (yes, two times a double trilogy)
The meaning of SW 1/3 is to see a young boy turn into a Sith, seeing the rise of the empire, seeing who's the emperor, how it comes that luke and leia are not known to vader, and thats about it...
but why do you need three films for that, i've seen every one of those things in Star Wars part 3...
First of all how anakin became a sith is just tooo cheesy, he becomes a sith because he wants to save his wife from death O_O (WTH?!) Thats just too simple
Seeing the rise of the empire (clones getting an much older armor?)
Seeing who's the emperor...the most influential man in the Star Wars universe?!? (So why does he want to become Emperor, how come all the Jedi's dont see who he is?, because he puts up some sort of dark cloak that clouds their minds?)
How it comes that luke and Leia are going their separate ways...because some green huggable monster who wants to go into exile says so?

Star Wars part one, two and three are for me bad, and to me the figure of Darth Vader has been seriously damaged.
One example of what i mean is: why does Darth Vader looks more at peace when he's a Sith then when he's a Jedi (WTH)

You say the first three episodes answere questions, to me they only make more.
For example, how did those very intelligent clones became so dumb?
Why did master yoda go into exile because he lost one fight?
How come the best swordsman in the universe died against such a freak as the emperor (Windu)
Why did somebody made Kamino disappear on all the maps?
How did the swordfighting became so over spectacular (i remember Ben against Vader...no force jumping, no weird moves, just blades vs blades with two feet on the ground)
Where did all the separatist leaders go and why didn't they keep fighting? (not everyone was at Mustafar)
Why didn't the left-over jedi's (after order 66) came together?

Then the background, your right that it shows something, but not far enough
New and cool Star Wars locations (i believe thats the only + point about it)

But still, the prequal star wars trilogy was for me a go down...it's like doing the first 3 years of school with only A's +++ And then the last three years you leave with F's---
What happened to you in that time i wonder! How did George Lucas made Star Wars so bad? Thats my question

Oh goody, i love it that i made this topic :D

First of all i have to say im quite the film lover, i've seen about 2500 films and the old sequence of Star Wars is amazing. (btw wasn't born in the old generation of starwars, i wish i had tho, but i wasn't. I'm 18 and have seen only two star wars films in the cinema)
However...Star Wars IV...is a remake of Kurusawa's Hidden Fortress (which is also amazing). But that it is a remake doesn't mean it's amazing.

Secondly i think Lucas destroys some good films with weird stuff,
Episode 1: the gunguns, the entire mos isley scenes, the weird fish things, the entire trade federation (creatures and droids alike)
Episode 2: it continues...first of the horrible anakin, the sam weasel? thing, the bartender?, the capture of obi-wan?, Jango Fett and his son bobba fett (i'm sorry but why does Bobba his armor looks so much dirtier then that of his dad?), a hugh droid army with which the universe could have been overtrown long ago...They all look good, but what on earth do they have to do with the plot?!
Episode 3: The rise of lord vader (OMG...this was sooo bad, when i saw the old trilogy i expected soooo much more), general grevious (what a bad villain, he sucks...no villain should be running away that much), Yoda fights the emperor and goes into exile because he loses ONE fight?! (he's such a bad loser). Qui-Gon is going to teach Obi-one ways of afterlife on tantooine?! (wth?!, he died on Naboo, get over it), And so are there dozends of other examples!
The clone wars series (yes i've seen them all so far)...How much i like the science fiction world of star wars...there is no real plot in the series, just badass fighting. Darth Maul returning??! wtf? Weird jedi masters turning red? (how did those ever became jedi masters!)

Don't get me wrong, i love star wars...i'm a great fan of SWBF, SWBF II, KotOR, KotOR II, Jedi Knight, Jedi Academy...all of the star wars games (except pod racing). I'm also a huge fan to the storys about it, the so called history of that universe is amazing! but.....Ep 1/2/3 just failed me because the plot is to cheesy. The story not right, the creatures to huggable and some of the leading characters are too noobish.


But thats just my opinion. I'd like to hear yours. Therefor i'm asking you the question: what made you like the first three episodes of star wars?

Heya,

Tho i'm a real fan to the star wars universe and especially to the old trilogy, i don't like part 2 and part 3...more over...i hate part 1...it's a disgrace to the whole star wars community, universe, games, films EVERYTHING!

This guy just sums some of the bad stuff up that star wars 1 has:

I think it's a major credit to the people who are continuingly stabilizing and renewing interest in this game. Guys like Led, Rage, Oven, Deagle and many others have found ways to keep this game going and find new ways to make it interesting with this site, mods, tournaments, videos, etc. And of course it's a credit to everyone who keeps playing the game and helping out in any way they can.

Lol, only one guy in the entire community has drawn me out of pension...J-dee's maps and mods >D those are the only ones i play.
Btw does anybody know when his mod come out?
