'Was hand-selected by the Emperor himself to train his daughter, who she successfully brought up to Imperial Knight level.'
And you are bias free?
Of course not.
But to your level? Certainly not, no question.
I often chime in on threads, and on quite a few threads where there's a character I like and another... I simply don't post because I recognize that I may not be impartial.
You mistakenly try to assume that ground realities of Sith in all era are same.
Nope, I assume that an average force user in an era with access to similar levels of training and force knowledge will be similar.
You always try to argue in favor of Darth Krayt and Darth Wyyrlok III in various threads,
Often, but I've also been involved in plenty of threads where I say they lose, and additionally, as mentioned, I avoid some close threads if I think it may just be my preferences.
Note how additionally, I don't argue them against the most top foes most of the time. Wyyrlok is the second strongest Sith in his time. In my opinion, he'd lose to the second strongest Sith of TOR. He'd also lose to some of the Dark Council, but he'd beat many of them. This is not exactly an extraordinary claim of power here, it's a lot different than putting every named TOR sith above powerful sith of other eras.
in-fact, you claim that even an ordinary individual of Legacy era is a powerful Force-user by Jedi and Sith standards.
Ah ah, it's no good making things up, you should know full well I've never argued that 🙂
A Jedi Knight or Sith warrior from Legacy has no particular advantage over a NJO, CW, or TOR one. They do have an advantage over a late-New Sith Wars one, but that's to be expected.
You may be confusing for when I said an Imperial Knight is powerful by average standards... but that is purely because the aforementioned 'they only give the title to master level fighters,' thing, it's a rank equivalent to Jedi Master/Sith Lord, and Masters/Lords are powerful by average standards as well.
The same could be accomplished by other orders simply by shuffling around titles.
Focus on your own biases as well.
In addition to the above on how I don't have as large ones *and* I specifically avoid fights where I think my reaction would be too based on bias, I will also comment on how someone else's biases do not erase or excuse your own, and your own are very significant. Quite a bit more significant than my own.
If you're aware you have significant biases in an area, maybe you should avoid debates in that area?
