I haven't logged on in years, really just wanted to see if this site still existed. If anyone comes across this post, I really wish you could have been a part of this site when it was still jumping. I have went through an ugly divorce, and some other life changing events over the years, so I just basically forgot about this. Thanks to Kit Fisto and the other admins for starting and maintaining this site. For a time, it was a big part of my life

That's funny, I feel the same way. It's the first time I'm browsing the board since I don't know when. I joined back in December of '06. I'm glad to see it's still running. I'll check back more often.

I check back on the site periodically, it isnt active any more as it is easy to tell so for the most part i just go back to look at old post and such, nostalgia.
I joined the site back in november of 06 so i have been around here for a very long time, i really miss the site, i wish it was still active like it was in its glory days.
I had alot of fun on this site between role playing and so many things, the good bit i was a mod was great aswell, really miss this place.

Yeah, I miss this board so much. It got me through so many rough patches in my life. I miss the days where everyone was constantly trading pictures of their saber's, roleplaying, writing fan fiction and just sharing stories and experiences. I also remember the day where Jerrek Dromas was made a moderator and thought it would be a good idea to "tidy up" the boards and ended up deleting EVERYTHING. It ruined this forum. That is the reason that this place is dead. It used to be constantly buzzing with activity, with hundreds of member's on at a time! I will never forgive Dromas for what he did...

Yes i remember that aswell, by that time my activity had dwindled down though and i didnt have much time for the site any more plus there was alot of drama going on and probably 40% or more for all i know, people on this site hated me lol, Actually let me rephrase that, it was about 40% or more of the sites mods that hated me xD even when i was a mod.
I dont know maybe it was because of my immaturity i was just a kid back then pretty much (was only 13 when i signed up in 06) Still believe many people were way to harsh to me seeing as at the time i was indeed only a kid but you know people are who they are i suppose.
But yes, i hated when the site died, besides the fact of the drama i did make a few good friends here that i still manage to keep in touch with and speak to every now and then.

I really want to get this site up and running again. I am hoping that the release of Episode VII will give this place a shot in the arm and get it filling up again. This place is online home to me lol...

As popularity builds for the new film, so could the popularity of this board. I brought up the topic of adding a new part of the film boards for Episode VII in the Mod Room, but I'm still awaiting a reply. It doesn't help that the Hasbro FFX's are crap when compared with the MR ones as well...

You probably wont get a reply, the only people who can do that is Kit and Garyn and neither of them are active, i think Garyn comes around every once in awhile aswell as Kit but not often, Garyn comes around more than kit does but i believe kit has a family and such now so i imagine he wouldn't have much time to mess with the site.
So with the admins not that active i dont really have to much hope for the site's return

Blast from the past this website. Let us see if any of the oldie forumers return with the new films. So what's up everyone? Update: So I checked my mailbox had a few messages requiring stuff I can't even remember and one asking for a tutorial on the old Photoshop stuff we used to do here. I emailed what I could even though its a few years behind, Made me laugh to myself that guy is going to be confused when he checks his email and find that little Gem.

Funny, I started this thread almost a year ago, and for some reason, it just hit me to log in. I guess as long as we keep checking back from time to time, it can never really die! I hadn't touched my sabers in years until my daughter and stepson got on a SW kick over the holidays. I replaced the batteries in all of them and fired 'em up. Man, I still remember unboxing my MR Mace for the first time....what a feeling.

This is pretty funny. I just logged in and checked when I posted last...it was on this thread almost one year ago, lol.. Visiting this site and the FX Sabers site brings back a lot of good memories. I started my account after I bought my first Master Replicas FX Obi-Wan Ep.III saber back in '06. It was the first saber I ever bought and of course it wasn't the last Not long after I joined the NY Jedi and stayed with them for a couple of years. Now I have my own sci fi stage combat group. I just put up a teaser video on You Tube and I'm about to shoot the next one and after that, start work on our short film. I said it a year ago and I'll say it again. I'm glad to see the site's still around. I'll def check in more often.

Well, exactly one year again, and I thought about this board....something weird going on in my head lol. What really made me think of it is some fan fiction I wrote that I wanted to print out and maybe continue. Hope anyone that reads this has a great 2015, and I guess I'll come back next year....

I have no idea why, for some unbelievably weird reason, I feel the urge to log in here on January 2nd. Literally 10 minutes ago, my daughter and stepson were dueling with their sabers, and I got my two old dusty MR's off the wall and put batteries in them. Fired right up, and I instantly thought of this. Some kind of galactic alignment every year at this time, I guess.
Anyway, on the Star Wars front, I enjoyed The Force Awakens, and am looking forward to Rogue One in December. I'm an active member of the 501st Legion, and I'm looking forward to getting back to trooping soon.
Hope this finds you well, and I'm sure I'll be back in a year.
