The board for discussing all things Star Wars!
This thread serves as a simple introduction to the board, but can also be used for suggestions, board news or anything you might like to share.
Tips:
• Here are some essentials to getting started on the board and integrating into the community.
1: Check out the board's CyTube channel for live chats and watching SW videos (feel free to edit the playlist if you're registered on the site): https://cytu.be/r/star-wars
2: We have our own Star Wars encyclopedia covering all pre-Disney media, the SW Holonet. Feel free to check it out and contribute: http://swholonet.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page
3: Don't be afraid to ask for info, sauce or links about SW comics, books, games, etc. We're always happy to share what we know.
4: Learn some freaking Huttese, you scocha kungs.
5: Fair warning. Diehard Disneyfags and Namefags can and will be mocked by the locals.
6: Always check the catalog.
7: Credits are accepted, but truguts are preferred.
The Rules:
• The rules here are simple, we live by and follow the rules and laws of Hutt Space. Which means we barely follow any real rules here. Just don't post CP and keep shit on topic as I don't like banning or deleting shit, unless its necessary, like spam, cp, brownpill shit and raids. Off-topic shit will not be deleted either, but it will be anchored (unless its scifi-related and in relation to us), so just make a meta general for that kind of shit.
May the Force be with you, troopers.

Those bugs were far better at making your planet look great. All Alderaaneans did was make it into space Canada.

I'm not surprised. It was inevitable. Many of the 501sts members were forsaking a lot of the older armors and focusing more on Disney shilling than SW RP and charities. A falling out was gonna happen sooner or later. Not to mention all their cosplayers now were just nu-troopers, Knights of Ren, Kylo Rens or shitty background armors from TFA.
Also that "Empire are evil Drumpf nazis" shtick on twitter from the braindead and disconnected writers in Rogue One only helped to fuck up their image since the 501st was largely Empire-themed. Its like no one at Disney has any fucking knowledge of the last 20 years of SW history or the fandoms. Is no one from the old guard left at Lucasfilm or something? Did Kennedy and Disney replace all of them with Pod People?

Pretty much this. Said people were just virtue signalling asshats and Disney shills.

As you all know, midterm elections in the US are coming up and shit is bound to get more political and hectic online, especially around here. Its possible 8chan could get fucked with like during the April Fools hack or worse. 8chan servers have been buggy as fuck too. So remember to save your favorite images and archive your threads for posterity just in case the worst comes to past. And also to go to either the russian /sw/ board, the HoloNet wiki or our IRC Chat in case shit really does go down hard in the near future.
Also, we need to set up a bunker or even a potential replacement board. Any suggestions? Should I set up a Discord?

Not the best idea if you ask me. Whether or not it really is a honeypot, enough anons think it is that it would fracture the board base as one or more "unofficial" bunkers pop up for splinter groups. As for alternatives, the first that comes to mind is Voat, although given the nature of the site it might also come under attack come midterms. I'm not really well-versed on inter-chan drama, does Endchan have some viability or is there some reason we should distrust it and/or its owners?

I can't really think of anything wrong with endchan. Some anons dislike it due to the fact revolt moved to there at one point, but that's all I can think of.
In terms of other options for bunkers, there's always the option of getting an anon to host their own imageboard or forum temporarily. Also 08chan, which is made specifically as a bunker for this site.

There's genuinely no reason to care at all. Lee was nothing more than a thief and businessman and he had zero connection to Star Wars. Shame Ditko didn't outlive the bastard.

Even if he had, would Ditko have done anything? He was a pretty notable recluse. Still the guy was a comic book maestro, if Lee died before him, Ditko would probably get a huge amount of attention. Question is, would Ditko have accepted it?

This sounds like something that's worth its own thread. Its no secret that 8chan's activity has been waning and that we have more negative attention than positive, especially with all the questionable pedo boards. This place might as well be a honeypot. I personally think we shouldn't outright move, but to at least set up an emergency/secondary board somewhere on an imageboard that allows custom board creation because if were to move, we'd be forced to just be a shitty general thread on a bigger board. Question is, what other boards are there?

Endchan seems stable enough- but due to it being a sparsely populated, seldom visited site, it may fall apart when it gets more traffic. I believe it does have a page for board creation, but it's probably slightly different in regards as to what you can do.

>Isn't that basically just a reddit copy?
Yes and no. Its interface is basically reddit+reddit enhancement improvements. This theoretically has the same problem as reddit in that there's a potential for circlejerks to arise, but because of its population, this circlejerk has been pushing things in a positive direction instead of a negative one. As a result the userbase is rabidly anti-censorship and just as edgy as 8chan; halfchan /pol/ actually tried to raid them once, but no one noticed because the average voat is more redpilled than most halfchanners, and they left disappointed.

I've heard this for three years, anon, and apart from cutting down on /pol/-/leftypol/ rabidity and posting more, I see little other way of combating it. Also, some of the nastier boards were purged a couple months back, if memory serves.
>Endchan
An annoying pack of pre-emptive vultures. /tg/ has had to deal with their bullshit for years, and only was left alone once Chrow put his foot down. Disregard them. Voat can serve as a bunker, I suppose, if we don't go /a/'s route.

How? What's there to make a timeline about, the series is a pretty open-and-shut story about childhood wish fulfillment, you really can't go any farther in it without fanfic-tier trash.

Judging from their article and wiki, it seems they covered all info from guides, video games, spinoffs, toy descriptions, and other sorts of trivia guides and reading material. Harry Potter is shit, but I don't feel sorry for them considering many of my friends are Potterfags who cherished their excess material yet laughed when Disney killed off SW. Now they're crying as JK declares that wizards shit where they walk and that Fantastic Beasts retcons their precious shit.
