Ztalker Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Only problem is, you have the SW fan who visits forums, watches movies and plays the games. And the 40-year old Burt who dresses up like Leia Organa in a slave outfit whilst being VERY overweight in the convention weekends... Think we need 2 names...

mattig89ch Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 how about the new and old warsies? That way those fan girls that dress up like leia are the old ones, and those who are just regular fans are the new ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Doctor Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Two names isn't necessary. All Trek fans are called Trekkies, even though they don't all own a starfleet uniform and attend conventions. And, off topic, aren't Harry Potter fans called Pott-heads, not Muggles?

Astrotoy7 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Two names isn't necessary. All Trek fans are called Trekkies, even though they don't all own a starfleet uniform and attend conventions. Trekkie indicates that extra degree of fanaticism. I prefer Trekfan to describe my more moderate fondness of Trek I like being a Whoovian, Sherlockian or Hayekphile (aka zomghsalmaissohot) mtfbywa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachel_Ewok Posted November 8, 2008 Author Share Posted November 8, 2008 Star Wars fans need no nickname. We're already pimpin enough So true. =P But I still feel left out... Especially because my brother is a Trekkie and I don't have a cool name. XD As for Muggles? Well I've heard Pott-Heads, but only like, once or twice, and Muggles sounds WAAAY cooler (in my opinion anyways.) Plus I don't like Harry Potter anyways, I just knew that was a rather large fan group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chevron 7 locke Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I asked someone this very question and she said that we were Revanists. but that only applies to people who like KOTOR since revan isn't mentioned in any of the movies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trekkies are fans of TOS, while Trekkers are fans of TNG, DS9 and Voyager. I don't know if they've got another one for Enterprise fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
