Listen, I've had a hard day, I've been working hard on a project, and I come home with bullshit spam like the stuff you posted earlier. I offended you, and I'm sorry, but with all due respect, please, STFU.
But yeah, Vader lifting a guy off the ground doesn't rank him on the Top Ten World's strongest.
I think Vader was actually a lot more powerful than you guys think he was. The OT films lacked the technology that the PT films had, and that is why they were unably to make Vader look very impressive. Just look at Grievous. He lost all of his limbs. Yet he was still faster than most jedi. So why would Vader be slow just because he lost his limbs? And Sidious put all of his hope into Vader; he would have had the best suit created for him. Vader was also incredible in terms of force strength and control, and although he lost most of his midchlorians in his duel with Obi-Wan, he was still extremely strong in the force. He had huge amounts of experience as well - he fought in the clone wars, he killed countless light and dark jedi as was said before. And in the duels he lost, it wasn't that he wasn't skillful enough but for other reasons - in his duel with Obi-Wan, he got arragant and overconfident and in his duel with Luke, he was going through a huge battle of light and dark within himself and he was fighting against his son which must have been emotionally tough. His fighting technique is also arguably the greatest of the 7 and it is extremely probable that he mastered it. His strength and height also gave him a huge dueling advantage, so overall he was actually very incredible. But so is Malak so it's quite close. I think Vader has it.
Oh joy. The "tech was too weak, ergo the movie canon, highest point of SW canon policy, is not submittable as evidence of Vader being a total wuss in saber combat" argument AGAIN.
The movies overrule your wishful thinking. Vader is significantly slower, but stronger physically. In the Force, GL said he lost most of his potential. Ergo, he is weaker.

He lost a lot of midi-chlorians but look at how many he originally had. Look at Simus. Think of how many midi-chlorians he must have lost, yet he was strong enough in the force to stay alive as just a head.

and how many did he have compared to Malak? Malak also lost a jaw he is still alive, how many did Simus have? What does it have to do with anything?
After he gut cut down he became much weaker. He has the physical strength to stand up to Malak, but he simply does not have the force power, the speed or the ligthsaber ability of Malak.
Malak was a lightsaber prodigy bested the greatest lightsabers users of his era except for Revan, he became Dark Lord of the Sith. We know he controlled the Star Forge which requires a nice bit of force power he also knew Lightning and life drain techniques... He was able to choke two Jedi (more impressive then Vader his choking normal people) at the same time, then throw his lightsaber at one and shoot the other down with lightning.
The guy outclasses Vader with everything.

How can you compare Malak surviving without his jaw to Simus without his whole body. Vader was incredible in the force, beyond Malak easily. And how do you know that controlling the star forge requires 'a nice bit of force power'. It undoubtably requires no force power and just amplifies the power of the one who controls it.
