I wonder if our latest member darren-itn has anything to do with this
http://news.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30100-1312098,00.html?f=rss

Just wondered with the ITN on the name and the date of joining coinciding with the start of the court case :wink:

Maybe looking for quotes? Are you there Darren?

 

[weasel]

I was thinking exactly the same!

Wait and see if he chirps up, or starts a thread all about it.

 

[Darth Wensleydale]

I made the mistake of not condemning the company on RS and apparently I was so wrong to have an opinion :lol:
Fair enough a US court decided that Lucasfilm had the copyright in the US but the company is here and UK copyright laws apply which seem to be a bit different. Its the current court case here which is the deciding one :wink:

 

[weasel]

Ahh such a school boy error, whatever is the prevailing opinion on RS is, it's THE ONLY opinion allowed, full stop.
:roll: :lol:

You should know that US copyright laws OBVIOUSLY supercede ANY laws anywhere else in the world!

On a slightly related note, the Yanks are trying to Patent "Yoga"........so does that mean all those people in India who have practiced it for centuries owe the Yanks a couple of million Dollars in back payments?

 

[tiefighterboy]

Dont get me started about RS :twisted: :evil: :twisted:

Back to the subject there have been a few new users in the forum past few weeks

 

[weasel]

Yeah, good to see, especially as they seem to be 1) posting and 2) sticking around.

The more the merier!

imperial outpost has slighty more members but its dead all the time. This is a more active forum

 

[Darth Wensleydale]

I know a few of their members aren't as active these days but it seems to be too quiet over there... strange :?
I do think their vintage section is buried too far down the page though.

 

[Ron]

I joined there and this forum same time. I have barely posted a thing on imperial outpost

 

[jaymassive619]

bunch of twats .tried to get that compition going but they started crying like little girls "all you come up with was cage fighting and dodge ball "we were joking at one point i thought it would be great to do a merge with them .but now they can **** bunch of nerds.
"who lets lift swearing ban and then we may get popular and funny like that other great star wars forum ."dont think so .they could get george lucas on there site and it still wouldnt be as good on here :twisted:

 

[weasel]

As long as people don't take themselves too seriously they will fit in well on here.
We're all happy enough to answer questions (assuming we know the answers) and no one judges or slags off people's collections. We're quite happy to slag you off about most other things mind, but it's all done tongue in cheek. If you can take a joke, and even better, if you can throw some abuse as well, I don't see any reason why you wouldn't fit in!

Once you get a decent crowd on then there are more posts for people to read and more information etc (plus obviously more pissing about) and people are more likely to stick about. I think IOP suffers because it is so quiet. People that find it become disillusioned at the lack of activity and drift away, or just never feel the urge to post.


Ohh and Jay, i see you finally got mor ethan just a hilt for a saber! :lol:

 

[jaymassive619]

Yeah im buzzing about the saber tip looking good lol!

Is the any chance of getting a custom handle!
