Jedi Council Forums

The Jedi Council Forums, or JCs/JCF, are the message boards of the popular Star Wars website TheForce.net. The forums cover a diverse range of fandom interests, from the films to the wider Expanded Universe, gaming, fanfiction and other fan activities. According to Big-Boards.com, the Jedi Council Forums are the 28th largest internet forum. Given its size and popularity, at various times the Jedi Council Forums has attracted a number of Star Wars VIPs—authors, artists, and editors—to post on the message boards. This interaction between the fans and the creators of Star Wars is a popular component of the site; however, it has caused problems on occasion, with a small number of VIPs ceasing to post on the forums due to various conflicts. These include both Troy Denning and Karen Traviss. This occasional animosity is despite the site's aim of providing "a family-friendly atmosphere of discussion for people of all ages."
