other force users?
a buddy of mine who seems to know everything about star wars explained about the origin of the sith and how sidious recruited others who had potential in the force,for example i never knew the red imperial guards had limited knowledge of the force but werent jedi/sith.
so when they say "only a master and an apprentice" are they just talking about sith lords?and the sith can employ others who use the force without them being jedi/sith,or am i just getting confused?

yeah it seems kinda like a technicality.maybe the other students werent sith though,just rogue or dark jedi.the other body guards sidious had who had limited force power were hardly jedi(eg.the imperial guards were no match for yoda)
so let me get this straight,characters can know the force without being jedi or sith?
The EU was created by a lot of people with a lot of different views, a lot of good stuff has to come from that. They can explore further on what GL started. GL can not. He already knows what he wants, once that is set its hard to explore on it. But lets not forget there is a lot of crappy EU too.
Take NJO for instance, perhaps not because of how it was written or the characters but just because of how it is all shaped. Absolute bullshit if you ask me.
There are a lot of non-Jedi and non-Sith force users. Just to name a few.
Matukai
Jensaari
Those hounds on that one planet use the force to hunt(real specific)
Sorcerers of Tund(these guys may just be made up and not actual EU)
The Fallen(I think)

You misunderstood what I said. He didn't follow Bane's Sith Code. That was the one with only one apprentice at one time. He broke it when he taught to many people at one time and when he revealed himself to the Jedi. Bane believed that the way to destroy the Jedi would be secretly, never letting the Jedi know they weren't extinct.

Besides the Jedi Order and the Sith Order, there were...
The Kilian Rangers - kept peace on Kilia IV and defended it from invaders
The Aing Tii - monks who despised slavery and viewed the Force as colorful rather than Light or Dark
The Dark Jedi - fallen Jedi who followed the Dark Side of the Force, but were less trained or knowledgable of the Dark Side as the Sith
The Emperor's Hands - Dark Jedi who were more knowledgable of the Dark Side but were not Sith
The Inquisitorius - another Dark Jedi faction underneath Palpatine, focused on breaking minds and interrogation and torture
The Prophets of the Dark Side - another Dark Side faction under Palpatine, which used the Force to peer into the future to aid Palpatine
The Ewok Shamans - Ewoks that were Force adepts who, in their primitive beliefs, thought that they could perform magic
The Fallanassi - a wandering group that followed the ways of the White Current (The Force) and despised the Sith
The Gand Findsmen - part-shaman, part-law enforcers on the world of Gand, who hunted criminals with the Force
The Infinite Empire of the Rakata - Dark-Siders who created the Star Forge, ruled the galaxy several thousand years before the Republic but died out from plague
The Jensaarai - former Jedi who tried to put Sith techniques into their training and wore elaborate armor
The Krath - rulers of the Empress Teta system, vicious Dark Siders who despised the Jedi almost as much as the Sith did and designed a nasty war droid
The Witches of Dathomir - Force adept women who ruled the planet Dathomir
The Nightsisters - exiled Witches of Dathomir who used the Dark Side
There are many more, but I could not find adequate descriptions of them.
