    On the rating scale, I think we should change "pathetic" to "unoriginal" and use a picture of an unmasked Clone Trooper. Pathetic can be insulting to some so "unoriginal" may be good replacement.

    It is a little insulting, yes.

    It can definitely be antagonistic. I think "unoriginal" works much better. We have like/dislike and optimistic/pessimistic so original/unoriginal fits in that scheme very well.

    I'm still thinking it should be an unmasked Clone rather than Mr Crumb here haha.
    But thanks Viral!

    I think we should come up with some team games in the Casino. We have two sport team's in the Cantina, And hear is some name Ideas:
    Yavin Rebels vs Hoth Troopers
    Desert Jawa's vs Ice Wampas
    Rebel Greens vs Imperial Reds
    Those are just suggestions, I think we should have a team game.

    Hey Viral,

    There are a lot of times I want to post in the article threads but I back away because I don't want the hassle of scrolling around to find my comments and their responses. Would it be possible to link comments on articles to cantina accounts? It would make it easier for us users and also greatly encourage sign up for the cantina. I picture it like the talkbacks on AICN. Com. Anyway just a thought. I love the site and the job you guys do. Just post more spoilers! Haha.

    He was asking about commenting on the blog articles with Cantina accounts.

    @Stillwatch we are working on it I believe. @Viral Hide, is this correct?

    Is this website going to be called Starwars7news forever or will you change the names depending on the next movie like rogueonenews, starwars8news, or will you just rename it for Starwarsnews ?

    You should have StarWarsNews and Then slowly grow complacent and have it stolen from you and slowly become Sithlordnews.

    in my opinion it should be Starwarsnetwork or something like that and then on the website you can choose from like
    Star Wars 7 News
    Star Wars 8 News
    Star Wars 9 News
    Rogue One News
    Rebels News

    and so on but thats just me :p

    or simply call your website The Cantina I mean why not

    I believe they are going to eventually change the current name 'Starwars7news' It wouldn't make nearly much sense to keep it after EP VII is out... ;)
