Vaapad is stupid, that's all I have to say. It's basically just an excuse for Mace to be a) a great swordsman and b) seem like he's a really great Jedi just because he resists the Dark Side.
ALL Jedi resist the Dark Side.
Vaapad became an excuse to make people fall to the Dark Side, but you can fall to the Dark Side through extreme violence with any form...
Just as much as an excuse for falling to the dark side as love perhaps?
There are some character who do not seem to have the same emotional liberation as others such as Mace who need to have be tempted by the dark side. And despite your personal opinions on Vapaad it is canon, maybe not as much as the movies, but then the PT sucked like your mother.
And, as i cant be arsed to lookj at the reader of the SS aasumption, I should let you know I am founder of the 'Taking Sh*t From Noobs' society. We meet everyweek at your mums house, and divulge weekly SS assumptions...
Vaapad is no where near the excuse of falling out of love. With love came a bunch of other emotions; fear that the love would end, anger when it does end, anger elevating to hatred, and so on.
Vaapad, as well as any other form, would only cause you to fall if you did something out of anger.
Watch the language, Kane.
