First of all, my apologies. I did get a bit long-winded. I don't know if the Empire would have come after Luke or not, maybe Vader would have eventually "sensed" him and sought him out. I just meant to reinforce the previous few posts that living in the Empire probably wouldn't be that bad for the average joe. That quotation obviously wasn't the best example.Darth Fanboy wrote: I'm confused as to what you are getting at. Are you saying that without the Rebellion around the Empire would have gone after Luke anyway?
Oh boy, species stereotyping that makes any other course of action practically impossible.
Is there a point to any of this aside from "me too"ing? Blasting the Ferengi simply due to their looks is actually a pretty stupid statement, since they would probably be the most loyal of collaborators.
Enthusiasm for the topic is good, you have that. Please read the site, read the forums, and come back with a head full of knowledge rather than restating opinions and things which are generally known and accepted. I did that stuff too with my first few posts IIRC.
All else I can say is that the remark about the Ferengi was a joke, because I've always fantasized about blasting a few of them, since they always seemed a little silly to me. Obviously, you had no way of knowing it was a joke, since they are just words on the screen. I do agree that the Ferengi would probably be the first to capitualte to the Empire, because they would never pass up an opportunity like that.
As for reading the forums, well, that's a work in progress, and will take some time. But I'm working on it.
One last thing: Do you think the Ferengi's immunity to telepathy would also block Jedi/Sith powers? If so, that would be quite an asset for them. Thanks.
