Responded to it. You're right in some parts, but you're also stretching some arguments beyond what your evidence actually states, and at other times you're blatantly taking quotes out of context to suit your own ends.

"Muuuhhh continuity" >>>> logic and common sense
Logic and common sense is to follow continuity. That said, I have already argued against certain elements of continuity repeatedly in the past, so I'm not someone who just follows continuity without even contemplating alternatives. That is the case with several others as well.
Moreover, "logic and common sense" here is in fact a synonym for personal desires and arbitrary interpretations. If a statement is produced saying that Mace or Dooku > Revan, then that's simply how it is. If you argue that Revan's still stronger because his feats are better, because "I can't see that happening" or whatever else, it's down to your own wants and arbitrary interpretations. There's no common sense or logic in that at all.

All future blogs by me will also specifically @ you, given you are generally the one leading the charge of stupidity.
Ad hominem. Doesn't excuse the fact that you're doing it then and there, which is what's relevant now. I'll respond to your stuff later.
And I'm fine with you leaving it up to others to decide what the stupidity is. Plenty of Revanites on CV are either on-board with me and other people who argue this purported stupidity or are at least willing to listen. You making everything personal shows nothing other than how immature you are. You might want to **** off outside for a breath of fresh air before making your next response.
It's being done. See the back-and-forth which are getting us nowhere? I suggest we stop and start having a productive discussion, based on the points of the blog itself and not each other.
I'm contributing by exposing the flaws in your arguments. You're just unwilling to listen, and from experience it's clear that if I'm not making a response that favours you, you're going to be unhappy and accuse me ofthis and that. I don't care what pisses you off or wets your knickers. If you make a thread on a public forum, anyone is entitled to post. The fact that you're showing dictatorial tendencies by not allowing dissenting opinion is supposed to scare me now? Kindly **** off.

If there were flaws in my argument, it certainly wasn't exposed by you.
Keep up with the ad hominems and continue to eviscerate your credibility.
I don't know why you make this stuff personal. If it involves Revan, it becomes outright personal to you, and it becomes a personal mission for you to hunt down the "heretics". There's something seriously wrong with that, and I suggest you find a way to stop it as soon as you can.

I imagine now isn't the moment when it all turns around on me.

Well, some might argue that it turned around on you a while ago.
Regardless, I'm not setting out to destroy your credibility or undermine Revan, despite what you may think. I've no personal agenda in this, as you can tell from my recent attempts to raise Revan in my own eyes. I'm just trying to be fair and stay as close as I can to canonical information. Your own failures in convincing me aren't my fault, lol. And if I'm just some stubborn prick who won't listen, skip me. You don't need to make it personal and dedicate entire blogs to attacking me like you're threatening me.
Become more mature and you'll be infinitely more respected. 👆
