Lets change "Force user" to "Force wielder"

[Ragsmire]

And that's pretty much the idea, right there in the subject. However i will touch upon why i think this would sound better.

First and foremost, am i the only person who thinks that when you say "force User" it sounds like their addicted to the stuff, like its a drug, or something.

Also "Force user" Makes it sound more like everyone using the force is somehow abusing its power, which then implies that most are somehow using darkside powers. Now that one may be up in the air depending on your definition of user compared to wielder, but i think it sounds like your abusing the power with User.

Now i know this may seem stupid, or not really all that important, but i think it says alot about the site to newer members, and we always like to keep it simple here. Do we want potential newbies coming in here and thinking the force is nothing but a drug on the site, it might confuse them, thus driving them away.

Anyway, all in favor post here, those not just don't post.

And, for those who may think this is a joke, its not. Totally serious here.

And for the record i have at least two people quoted has saying they prefer Wielder to user, however because i only asked one if i could use the quote i will only post one.

"force user, sounds like a drug called the force. i prefer wielder, personally"

Now i would post the other comment but out of respect i'll wait to ask first. Anyway that's all...for now.

A: this is stupid

B: User is easier to spell

C: if a new member is turned off by the use of a single word, do we really want that member in the first place?

D: there are plenty of canon instances where they're called force users.

E: Regardless of whats decided here i'll continue to call them force users. For the reason why, see "A"
