    I suspect you guys might run into international copyright and broadcasting laws that might stop this from happening. :(

    Nah, you can really do whatever you want as long as you're not making a profit off of it.

    Would it be possible to get a Star Wars Tabletop Gaming under the Expanded Universe category? There is a video game section, but until Electronic Arts releases plans for their upcoming titles, tabletop gaming from Fantasy Flight Games has a huge following. I'd definitely be interested in discussing them there.

    What about a Star Wars thread on what stories, features of EU have been re-integrated into the canon, as well as threads for EU stories that could be re-integrated in some form into the canon (Sorta like explain why you like it, and how you think it could be put back) I think seeing how for some people there are aspects of the EU that aren't clearly defined to be removed, just managing a huge thread that merges all of these, or several separate threads, could be really useful, especially if promoted correctly. We all are here to enjoy Star Wars, and being informed of what goes on within Star Wars continuity seems to me like a good idea.

    If not that, could we do a weekly spotlight on info on Star Wars? Like Wookiepedia does, they have a featured article per week. It's a fun way to introduce Star Wars history and also bring great discussion.

    I don't think tabletop games warrants its own forum. However, I think we can modify the current forum to also reflect tabletop games. I didn't realize they were so popular.

    We have this thread about EU concepts and TFA:

    http://thecantina.starwars7news.com...former-eu-appear-in-episode-vii.108/#post-884

    However, I LOVE your idea about a spotlight featuring something from the SW universe. What else do you have in mind for this idea?

    Well, see that get's a bit complicated. Would we do characters and ships and weapons and stuff, or would we Star Wars history like the official website, or would we do series, books, etc.? Also, would we go strictly canon, or would we state at the top or bottom if something is Canon or EU?

    Also, what about actively having members post "Happy Birthday!", I don't think many members do this, and I feel its just a way to spread forum and community awareness, and bring all of us together :D.

    I think we could keep it to canon. But I also think anything would be fair game. I'm just not sure how we'd do this. Mostly we want discussion here. This is an idea we'll have to think about and find a way to develop.

    I second a Delete option for posts to self-regulate and cut down on post bloat.

    Makes sense. But what about those in the 1030th? Could there be a limited amount of deletes or something we could have per week? It is our job to help the forums and stop and negative behavior.

    I will give permissions to the 1030th to delete posts. Just a heads up - don't use the option "permanent delete" only "remove from public view". This way all of us would know what's going on and can resolve disputes if something happens.

    So who is in the 1030th and where can we find a roster for moderation purposes?

    I think a badge would be handy in this case. :p Of course. :)
