Erath, FYI, yes, Luke falls in love a bunch of time in the series. Is it against the code? He answers that 2 years after marrying Mirax. He says its against the old jedi code, however, this is a new jedi order. It needs to adapt to a new way of thinking.
As for how many girlfriends he has after becoming a jedi, I can think of 4. I might have missed one somewhere though.

I just realized I said Luke married Mirax. That makes me look stupid, sorry. He married Mara Jade. Corran Horn married Mirax. Sorry.

This post is to shup people up who want to nerf the JSF. Dream on. The complaining won't stop until the thing is nerfed.
Rebels allways complain abou it being better than the A-wing well it has a right to be the JSF had years of rechearch and development to be good for the Jedi making it what it is. What I will never understand is why people talk about the ship like it's *real*. It's pixels. In the movie - it's FX. Let's *all* say it together - It's. Not. Real. The A-wing however is just a modivied stunt fighter not built for what it is used for it says so in Rogue Squadron 2. SO SHUT UP U REBEL SCUM! And thank you for stopping by to tell us all about how we need to view our fiction.
Between the green and yellow someone is going to read that and have a seizure or a stroke, and I'll most likely get blamed for it.
On the other hand, it was fun to come to work and see someone get wtfpwned by psiko.

He's right - the only "plus" to the JSF vs. the A-Wing/Adv is that it has 100% maneuverability at 100% throttle.
No, that's not the only plus. (Sorry to nitpick only part of your post.) The JSF is smaller profiled, with 25k more mass and two weapon slots. Those are some pretty damned big pluses.
Actually I have tested this and posted the turn stats in the new ships stats sticky at the top of the forum youll see that the JSF is over twice as manouverable than the Awing in a dogfight, has greater firepower, the same or smaller profile, and carries 50% more mass. I.e it is overpowered in every way and has no balancing shortcomings (in this case low firepower, low mass would be the right way to go).
Or just make usable in normal space and to move between systems you have to land and put it in a civilian transport as you dont have a hyperdrive ring for it - this also means it cant go to kessel or DS!

Go see EP3
If you havent SPOILER WARNING
The old code of not falling in love was what caused the downfall of the jedi
Bringing balance to the force is allowing the re-emergent jedi to be able to feel and love without falling to the darkside (well thats one of the balance ideas anyway)! Though the jedi still had attachments - witness Obi-wans heart-rendingobservations in the latter patter of the film "You were my brother - I loved you!" etc.
No way. Bringing balance to the force was killing off all but two of the Jedi so that there was a balance of Light and Dark. Of course, none of the Jedi realized this, and they just assumed that "balance" was gonna be a good thing.

To me the idea of balance was manyfold not just the most obvious ones - "The future hard to see is!"

Thank you for a non productive post that has no meaning at all other then to show you're a kid who has no clue as to what is going on.

All I can say is ummm wow... You know your stuff, I mean first off the A-Wing wasn't the stunt fighter it was one of the first Rebel Ships that was made by the Rebels. The X-Wing was however a Stunt Fighter, if you watch New Hope when there talking about going after the Death Star they make the coment about how a small Stunt Fighter couldn't blow up something that big. Also posting a message that starts out with "To shut people up" doesn't win you any friends.
The line is "Snub Fighter"

Thank you, psikobunny!

I'd ask how the heck this post was intended to shut folks up, but at 3 pages long I don't think that's neccessary any more.

Tell someone what to do and their reaction is usually to go "Up yours, Ill do the opposite!"
Hence reverse phsycology - "dont jump of that cliff!", "Dont tekk me what to do!", "AAAIIIIEEEEEE!" - splat!
