Do you still enjoy Star Wars debating?

Who still enjoys Star Wars debating?

It is no secret that KMC is dying. But I wonder if there are any people who still like to actively debate Star Wars versus or other topics.

Not really cause it's either using composite Canon or just Disney Canon which I'm not really following aside from the few comics that I found interesting.

I'm making an RT for an OUAT character called "Rumplestiltskin" and am rereading an old favorite of mine, "Wheel of Time" to get a better handle on their general ability level.

The guys over at Spacebattles like to claim Rand can form thousands of weaves in seconds due to creating this huge storm. ( They claim each lightning bolt was formed by an individual weave ) that's bullshit because we've seen Rand create a storm that incinerated the Darkspawn with lightning bolts using a singular weave.

You can use Legends just fine lol.

Except it's become essentially ground to dust. No one likes talking about the same thing over and over again forever besides scholars and historians. Star Wars doesn't exactly inspire that kind of commitment.

In Composite Canon? Sure I could, but if it's using characters that are strictly Canon then I don't see the point in doing so because they wouldn't benefit from that Canon to begin with. Which yes, I realize composite Canon would enable them to do so, but for me? Yeah no, if they weren't in Legends, they aren't getting that info, period.

Now if they were both Legends, then yeah I could, but then people bring up Canon feats which since according to rules the New Canon would override the old, then it makes having Legends pointless involved because the new Canon would just come first.

Even then I don't see the point in bringing up Canon, since Legends is far more fleshed out compared to Legends, so having composite Canon when using two Legends characters in the match seems pointless, when Legends has a 30+ year headstart compared to the Disney Canon which started what...3 years ago?

If one was from Legends and one from Canon, yeah...again no, see 1st point.

In short, there's just a bunch of headaches for me in trying to do Composite Canon. It's either Legends, or nothing at all.

Honestly, SW debating does have a half life for me tbh, although so does all fictional debating in one form or another.

Been getting more into Marvel/DC stuff but I still keep up with the mainline Star Wars comic, Aphra, Darth vader/Maul, and will probably at some point read Lost Star/Thrawn

So, roughly 10% it looks like.

why are we still on here then

Habit.

It appears I and Muser or someone else who voted yes are the only ones who still enjoy this hobby. I unfortunately came late to the party into an era where Star Wars debating was way past it's prime and a year later it's almost completely nonexistent at least on KMC. It's a shame, really. But if anyone's interested in a 1v1, I'll gladly agree to it (depending on what the debate is about, obviously) 🙂

The SW debating was great a couple years ago but since people like Silver and ILS left, Ant and DMB became far less active and there aren't people filling that gap so it's quite logical things go downward.

Silver? Silver's been gone for half a decade, and even when he was around it wasn't on KMC. KMC was already bleeding out by the time ILS joined, also.

Yeah, I'd say 2014 was when it really started its decline.

I still enjoy the odd star wars debate when I have the time.

Yeah well I started with CV where Silver was still active from time to time, only joined KMC later on.

I'm relatively new so it's still alright.
