I recently posted a thread like this on the star wars vs forum and it got closed for some unknown reason.. it pissed me off a little so I thought I'd make another one here
we need a versus anything thread for video game, movie, comic, or star wars related characters.....
your not allowed to post star wars stuff in the comic book versus forum, you can't have comic characters vs video game characters in the video game vs forum, and you can't have anything but star wars shit in the star wars vs forum...
It'd be cool to have a forum were we can compare all these characters to each other, and for the people that say it's impossible to compare someone form lets say Star Wars to someone from LOTR cause there from different universe's. Take a look at the comic book versus forum, people compare characters from different universe's there all the time, Superman vs Thor, Lobo vs Gladiator, Batman vs Captain America.. It's done all the time in a way that makes sense to.
Yeah, that would be pretty cool, although you should be able to include Star Wars characters in the comic book vs. forum, they have quite a few comics out, so that shouldn't be a problem.
Being as all of the versus forums have rules in place that state that something that's in that forum must originate in that format, no, SW should not be allowed in CBVS.
Versus forums are stupid. Most of the charachters you compare, you don't even know anything about them, and people try to twist and twirl crap in order to win a debate.
But atleast it's somewhere where people in KMC can go to debate.
However, I love watching people dissing each other in VS Forums.
"Yes I agree.We need at least one forum for like a random versus forum.Their may be different universes,but if that's the main reason why we can't cross them in this forum,why are we allowed to do so then in the comic book versus forum?We can put Marvel U vs DC universe,yet we cannot cross these with the Star wars universe in either forum.Who in the hell is trying to protect Star Wars?If it's going to be that way,we may as well have a seperate forum for DC versus and marvel Versus.Not to mention all the other characters who don't even belong to Marvel or DC."
As stated before,Star Wars has comic books as well.Game such as metal gear have gotten the comic treatment too.I don't see it being a problem.As long as it makes for good debating,which it does.
I remember my Solid Snake vs Wolverine thread.That was awesome.
One could argue that DC and marvel have had cross overs in the past and that's why they can have their characters fight eachother.However,these fights aren't even considered to be cannon,so the events that take place in these books are for debate.
Let me give a good example as to why the way the VS forums work now is seriously flawed.
In the video game versus forum you can only put two characters against eachother who originated in a video game.No comic book characters allowed.So in other words I can put Crash Bandicoot against Solid Snake or any Metal gear character for that matter.I can even put Spyro the Dragon against the Chaser from Resident Evil.Yet I can't put Snake against wolverine,or something like the Predator against the chaser.Seems like their isn't much of a balance of power of their anyway.So we can already make an endless amount of matches that would really make no sense.That being said,what would be the big deal about a random versus forum?
I'm in favor for a versus debates forum which covers pretty much anything. Mainly because we already have a whole load of them here anyways, yet all those different genres are not allowed to merge. Now a few of you have said that all you get out of versus forums is "bitching and complaining". Yet "bitching and complaining" come wholesale in the general discussion forum where politics, religion and world issues are discussed with a rather "fiery passion" I might add. If such a manner of behavior can be tolerated then surely a versus forum for everything can be tolerated as well.
More or less, the moderators are inclined to disagree.
If you don't like my thread closing decisions, well, you can thank the idiots who have proven time and again that a Versus Anything forum would fail.
"Master Chief doesn't exist in Star Wars, so Yoda can't use the Force on him!"
Oi. That'd be a nightmare.
But if you're going to complain about my moderator decisions and say it's my fault, then I think you're going to find that I hate the Vs. forums about as much as anybody, and you won't get a very friendly response.
Your correct.I don't see how mods could find a verse forum such a headache with some of the other crap floating around here.Like I said before,universes are crossed anyways in these forums.Narrowing it down to game characters or comic characters makes little difference.
I find that funny considering the comic book versus is probably the most active forum on this website.That forum alone outdoes the majority,if not all the forums on this website in terms of activity.If your talking soley about mods hating the VS forums,I understand.But if your talking about everyone as a whole I would find that a little inaccurate.
