Sorry for the delays with getting you activated. I'm not sure what type of Spam Filter your account is triggering, but it's a doozy!
Hope all is well now!
Cheers,

Hahaha, it's great to finally be a part of the forums
Heeey guys - some of you may have already noticed me pop up a few times on the Facebook group page, so I will *try* to keep this short and sweet.
My name is Rhys - I'm a 22 year old medical scientist hailing in from Brisbane. I, pretty much like everyone else here, grew up loving Star Wars. My childhood was spent making really, really bad X-wings out of Lego and attempting to play the occasional SW theme song through my mouth trumpet (my parents loved it, totally...not). However, one day I grew up and realised that I was over the goody-goodies trying to be all self-sacrificing and what-not over at the light side of the force...I'd much rather band with the dude force choking those that Darwin's theory skipped over. I wanted to be Sith. Then came The Phantom Menace and none other than Darth Maul. I have been a devoted fan of the devil-faced maniac ever since.
Skip forward 11 years to 2010 and I was at the Brisbane Supanova being awed by these people that were awesome enough to be walking around in TK costumes. I thought they were some rogue social line-steppers, breaking all the boundaries...until I found out there were THOUSANDS OF YOU ALL AROUND THE WORLD. Basically, I knew what I had to do.
My mission is to transform myself into Darth Maul: the epitomy of the Sith and their evilness, power and unrelenting success at, well, life in general. I have already started the process and am quite far into the deeper stages - I will keep those of you who are interested informed along the way.
Well that is me done, so much for short and sweet, my bad. I just got super excited. It's lovely to meet you all and I hope that will extend to the physical world soon enough. Cheers!
