Bounty Hunter Archive
Thread: Jedi please read and give input
- You attacked me when I was low on force
- You attacked me while i was grinding
- I was getting a drink
- I was trick or treating
- Attending a barmitsa
- I was afk
- I just channelled force
- I was dueling
- Had medicate my grandmother
- I was in the middle of changing pearls in my saber, if I would have just gotten them in there
- you used stimpacks and its illegal to use stimpacks when fighting a jedi
- Your not a real BH so you shouldnt be hunting Jedi
- Was busy cross dressing
- Your using cm abilities.. they are not in the Bounty Hunting line and are illegal.
- I was looking at the bazaar
- Its Thursday
- I am not in a good mood
- you looked at me in a threatning manner when you arrived and messed me up
- my friend was on my toon
- Passed a Kidney Stone
- Do not attack when Jedi is loading in
- Do not attack if Jedi goes LD
- I was in the middle of my ingame wedding
- Was participating in an event
- Was on my way to an event
- Jedi has gingavitus
- Jedi doesn't own a goat or doesn't ever have any plans of owning a goat.
These are just a few. But what I am trying to derive from this post is when, how, where and what a BH can do/use to hunt you ( Jedi ) and what we should do prior to attacking. IE.. a good response would be:
Give the jedi a tell 5 minutes before you attack so he can get foods and buffed up if needed or run to a house... another example would be. Give the jedi a tell and if the jedi requests you not to use stims or your certified weapon the BH complies.. or if the Jedi is not ready and is grinding then the Jedi can ask the BH to simply drop the mission.
Lets get some good approved times, tactics and rules set up so we can stop the hate between the two professions. All input is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The only time iget mad at a BH is when i am load killed. Dont let other jedi tell u anything dfferent. They should alwas be on guard for a BH at all time, if not to bad. The only thing a can understand a jedi not having at the time of a BHattack are buffs.

Hah! Dude, I'm hoping you're post is sarcastic and not serious. I'll highlight my favorite points...
And for the record, I've heard more excuse from BH's then anyone else in this game:
- I did not have my stims ready
- I ran out of synth steak
- I had a spice downer
- my armor was broke
- lag
- usploitedur ls and I'm reporting u 2 csr
- ur hax0r!!
- game accelerators will get you banned!
- u suck and I would have won if...(insert random excuse)
- I would have beat u if i didnt miss u
- etc...
See,... I read stuff like this and I don't get it... What are BH's?? What do they do in the game?.. THE HUNT JEDI AND GET PAID! What rules do we have? Hummmmm....... make sure you have a good weapon for the fight and thats about it. Get over it Jedi's..... BH are here to kill you and to get paid, thats it,... not to make friends, etc... but to get paid for killing you. If you didn't want to be hunted... then don't be a jedi.
You forgot:
I was alt-tabbed out to desktop adjusting my modem settings.
Nice points, Mindspat, but notice that most of the BH complaints are things that are the BH's fault. Most BH don't mind losing a fair fight if they effectively use their abilities, equipment, etc. If I lose and I know it's my fault (forgot to uncrate foods, didn't notice when a food buff dropped, hit f8 instead of f7, etc.) I get mad, sure, but not at the Jedi. So it's not really the same thing.
I hunt with several million credits' worth of inventory at my disposal (armor, weapons, foods, spices, droids, etc.). Losing fights because of my own stupidity is annoying--I might as well have just /tipped the Jedi 50k credits instead.

I double that. I only get mad when I'm still loading or if I have a client crash, and go LD. (BEFORE the BH gets there, not during the fight. If I go LD while fighting, the BH has the right to kill me. It's nice if he doesn't, and I personally never logout, but some Jedi do.)
Otherwise, I think no limits. Maybe you can set up a rule not to attack AFK Jedi, but if a Jedi is so stupid to go afk in the public when on the terminals, just shoot them in the back.

in your own words: u r a tool
fyi: the plural of Jedi is Jedi
Bounty Hunters serve to claim a bounty. These bounties do -NOT- rest on only the shoulders of a Jedi. Please list a movie where a Bountyhunter had hunted a Jedi !! You can't. The reason is they were more concerned with the actual villians, doublecrossers and politicians to be bothered with a Jedi. Sure, through involvement with Star Wars over the years it made sense that "Jedi are in hidding" and that in this game it should continue a form of that environment or continuity. The thing is "This is a game!"
Again, can you please show me a single document produced by SOE, or even LA, which shows that "as playing a Jedi in SWG you will be hunted down by Bounty Hunters which are controled by other players like your self."
Sad to say...you can't.
