Platitudes won't save you. A confirmation will, though.

I have the current codex for that one, btw. I'm assuming you don't need scans?

I haven't. Not threatened enough by the new development to rush for confirmation. I'll read it as it's all posted here.

I believe that you're not thick enough to lie about something so easily checked.

Critics have labelled me delusional, insulted me too much, and made fun of me at even a mere mention of my name. Now, I am having the last laugh.

[SPOILER - highlight to read]: Sidious has had the ability to raze planets since 1993.

By raze planets do you mean take 20+ years to "drain" a population?

Nah, I mean to use Force storms to "tear the surfaces off worlds" (Dark Empire Sourcebook).
Calm down Beefy.

I'll post this quote assuming you've read it, but will await your response anyways.
"Global cataclysms are not unheard of. Whole worlds teeming with life have been rendered lifeless by meteorites, broken apart by instability in the planet's own core--even atomized by the destructive force of a supernova. But the eerie calm of a world stripped of life yet left otherwise intact is another matter altogether. Whispered rumors have persisted of planets snuffed out through intricate Sith rituals or by way of deadly, arcane machines--such as the device Revan sought to employ on Yavin 4--but Ziost represents a clear display of the corrosive power of the dark side of the Force taken to its extreme. In her address to the Galactic Republic, Supreme Chancellor Leontyne Saresh mourned the loss of life, vowing to "stop the mad Sith Emperor at any cost." Similarly, word has filtered through the Sith Empire that the Dark Council is actively hunting their former Emperor while also working with renowned Sith alchemists on a plan to destroy the one they call Vitiate for good."
"but Ziost represents a clear display of the corrosive power of the dark side of the Force taken to its extreme."
You guys seem to be taking that line as saying it's not a ritual. That's not what it's saying, it's saying that where before it was whispered rumors, now it's happened to an incredibly important world in full view of the galaxy. Still probably a ritual.
Not saying it isn't impressive, just that it's not like he can do it at will or he wouldn't have stopped there.

Top showings of Sidious (DE) are:
1. Destroying an entire fleet
2. Destroying a part of Coruscant

No, Ziost related event is distinguished from other events of similar scale. It is the greatest display of dark side power in the mythos yet. And Vitiate pulled it of really fast.

Vitiate had been busy disrupting the entire planet with his powers. The protagonists arrive and attempt to stop Vitiate but they fail and Vitiate destroys the entire planet in response.

Yes, distinguished by the fact it's public knowledge. Though obviously I'm not going to argue the perceptions of an English sentence with someone who has yet to grasp the definitions of "have" and "has".
Anyway, Ziost wasn't destroyed as bad as Natheema anyway, people could actually land on Ziost and attempt to rebuild.
