Hey Everybody :),

I was just wondering...do u think that the academy will still remain for another 10-20 years and all...the reason I am asking is because, my brothers want to join the academy...however they are too young. :)

Poll
Do u think the academy will last?

if you think 20 years back, very few of us had even heard of the internet let alone held alleigence to a gaming community, i think thats pretty far ahead of ourselves.

20 years is a very very long time and it's unlikely though not impossible for The Academy to live that long.

I could just repeat the ones below. Hopefully the community will stay, the game might change.

Answer: Yes.. Hopefully.. If you want it to be here for 20 years then it will be.

The Academy will live on so long as there are people who want it to. Do you think the council members and the rest of the JAK+ keep it running for their own amusement? I mean they enjoy it.. But do you think they would do it if no one came here... if no one wanted the Academy?

Fortunately, there will always be people looking for a place as cool and as cultural as this. Anyone who's been here as long (if not longer) as me will know that they've met some pretty awesome people who share their interests. This place truly is something that will live on so long as we all give something.

But yeah, that does mean the Academy is here for a good long while yet! I'm pretty sure Virtue, C1, Doobie, DJ, Jai, Sete and more will all make sure of that... Even myself..

Alrighteh, rant over...

Come on now, every Generation X boy wanted to be Luke Skywalker. Is it because he was a whiney farm boy from some backwater hack planet? No, it's because he was a FREAKING JEDI. He could block lasers with his lightsaber. He could levitate droids & rocks & crap with his mind. Come on, he choked two pig dudes with just a simple gesture. He cut off Darth Vader's hand and kicked him down a flight of stairs. He got his @$$ zapped by lightning from the geezer Emperor, stood up and said "s'at all you got b!tc#??"

Yes, I think it CAN last 10-20 years, but only if we allow it to. Me, I'll never turn my back on the place. Only when I die will I not be an active member anymore! And let's hope that's a ways off. :P


VIVA LA ACADEMIA!! :D

Exactly. In my opinion if the future of the academy depends on any game related thing, it would be wether the members accept a new lightsaber game. There is bound to be one eventually. However it also depends on LA making a good lightsaber game. :P

Curse that managerial resuffle!

I'm pretty sure it'll be gone in 10-20 years. Activity these days doesn't seem all that great anyway.
