If there be light...
Unfortunately, I have next to no sympathy for the dragon writers on this forum.
If you want to write a dragon character, go join a fantasy forum. There's plenty out there. This is Star Wars, and even if they are technically cannon, the cannon versions were not sentient, and the vast majority of them are extinct.
Don't get me wrong, I love dragons and I love fantasy settings. I've written in several of them and I have my own dragonic type characters that I've rp'd for years, however,
there's a time and a place for dragons, it isn't here, and I fully support the Staff's decision.

Honestly, a non-sentient dragon that can't use the Force already is at a severe disadvantage anyways; there are then about a million and one things that can easily kill it. Like a missile to the face. Or a starfighter. Or Shorn's telekinetic fist. The ban was every bit about people doing both of those, I bet, and acting like gods. (non-canon aside, they're rebalanced for approval anyways.)
This is why we can't have nice things. Dragons aren't OP. Stupid people are OP.

I support [member="Avalore Eden"]. While they are canon, nearly all of them should be extinct. And to be honest, I think I was kind of mentally ill when I made the species of Nàrrans. Dragons, being both OP and should be extinct, are not Star Wars enough. Go and swing lightsabres, use the Force, make clone troopers or something. They're more Star Wars than dragons are.
I know I may be a bit rude and harsh, but I would never allow dragons again.

You mean then that I should not be able to play a dragon because you don't like me being a dragon and that's it? Can I make my vote to make something banned? There are a couple things I think are OP and not star wars enough.
That's not a good reason to take away my character. I as a writer don't want to use a clone or a jedi or sith. But I don't ask they be removed. And I think you guys forgot this isn't just star wars. It's science fiction. Where ANYTHING is possible the excuse that "they should be extinct" makes no sense in a genre that allows rancor or giant plant beasts that lay in the sand. Giant lobster monsters. Giant panthers and a force in the universe that while seems magical is actually tiny organisms. Please don't punish me by taking my favorite character to RP as because it doesn't fit your level of normalcy and makes you feel uncomfortable.

WTF are you people being so fething harsh for about dragons...
Avalore Eden
If there be light...
Not being harsh, just being honest.
I stick to my original point. If your first original thought when you joined a SW forum was "I'm gonna write a dragon!" then you're doing it wrong.
I know a few fantasy forums, though, that would happily welcome you.

So... cause you think it's wrong to wanna RP something that is more original than TOTAL CLICHES like Jedi, Sith, or Clone... they should leave to a fantasy RP even though it's not their first character as far as even I can tell?

Guys, tone it down a notch, please.

[member="HK-36"] No issues, man. Best thing to do is let people express themselves with regards to this the way they feel. I for one support peoples' true feelings on the issue being known.
The Crashing Loony
It feels like no fandom is ever pleased... Star Wars being one in this case, as staff bans dragons instead of restricting them and one judge and a Jedi Knight both hate on dragons even though they are canon just for the ones that were played here

Vyperion. Take it easy man. I know you can be very enthusiastic but I also know your tastes can change faster than the wind. One day your characters are this, the next day they are something else. It's not fair man. You have no consistency. Sorry bro. Just saying. No more all Caps please.
The Crashing Loony
It wasn't all caps, just the part in size 48 red x3
The Crashing Loony
Lol yeah, I'm not doing that again, I'm cool. I just don't like how a factory judge among others can hate dragons for even existing
