Does anyone else find him extremly annoying in both the movies and the books? IT goes from "Uncle Owwwen." to "but Haaaan" to "But Obi-waaaaan" to "buy Yodaaaaa" Seriously can he stop whining for once. He has made one funny joke, ever. It was in the newest Star Wars book, he was talking to Ben and he said, "If I die I swear I'll come back as a Force Ghost and annoy you on dates." That was IT! Either kill him or make him cooler.

Not yet. I haven't finished the book but I don't think so.

They are. Luke comes back as a force ghost to annoy Cade Skywalker to turn away from his dark ways and become a noble Jedi. :CHappy:
However, they haven't stated how they die, thus it is up to George to decide when and how they die, because I highly doubt he'd let anyone but himself decide if it's okay or not.

I like the ones with big space battles, or with EPIK lightsabre duels.

I like the idea of the Imperial Remnant beating the Galactic Alliance and becoming the Galactic power again, and then Darth Krayt's coup, leading to two separate Galactic Empire's one led by Krayt, the other by Emperor Fel. When we first choosing what we should do for the timeline, I was thinking of proposing a hundred years or so after the Legacy series to RP in, as it mixes KOTOR and the Original Trilogy together in a way I like.

Yea, during the Sith-Imperial War(127ABY-130ABY), where the Empire(more benevolent and beneficial to all than Palpatine's Empire) allied with the New Sith Order and toppled the Galactic Alliance. Right after, Darth Krayt's coup made him the new Emperor, and forced the real Emperor and those loyal to him into exile. Eventually the Empire-In-Exile built up enough power to take the fortress world Bastion, and fought Krayt's Empire for territory.

Krayt's, or Fel's? I'm all for Fel's, but Krayt's can't simply for evil feed upon itself and can never last. That, and he was stupid to stop the Rule of Two, although it made for a good story.

It's really a great series, although Star Wars fans are divided on it. A lot of people don't like it for some unconventional plots and themes.
This is the main character, FYI. Cade Skywalker:

Before 1000BBY they used the time since the Republic's formation. After 1000BBY, or the "Great Resynchronization" they measured from that date. A while after the Battle of Yavin they began using BBY and ABY. But for simplicities sake all encyclopedic entries are marked using BBY and ABY.

There's a lot less of that than you think. There was some stupid porn stuff like that in the beginning of the site, but after awhile users started to shy away from that and basically just started being retarded.
