Thread: Cover up for a BH/Smuggler

Now for me I can not see what is wrong about having a spamming macro going and a AFK tag up on your char when you are hunting a Jedi. I do not see what is wrong with hunting a Jedi that is the same Faction…
Nothing wrong with that at all, although my MBH/Master Smuggler would tell you differently.
after all doesn’t Vader hunt down any and all Jedi.
Yep.
What makes you think being one faction or the other makes it right or wrong?
All Jedi are evil. There's even that one bounty mission that comes from the Empire saying so.
And what is wrong about blending into the area as a spammer? Is anything wrong with this or is it just something that people have not seen very often?
Let them see how hard it is to kill a Jedi with the template you have and see how easy it is. If a fight goes longer than a couple of minutes, you're almost guaranteed to lose. And what is he doing flashing his saber around in public like that anyway? If they're doing it just to show off, we don't need him as an Imperial anyway.
Many players do not grasp the concept that Bounty Hunters (and Smugglers for that matter) are not upstanding and honorable professions. They are criminals who may abide by their own code of conduct within theirchosen profession. As criminals, even if they have a concept of honor andwhat is right, it should be no surprise that it is different from the general populace. Even though BH's are supposed to be sneaky and clever, Jedi get offended if you don't "announce" your presence in a manner they have grown accustomed to. If uniformed and readily identifiable personnel were effective against Jedi (and other marks) there would be no need for the nondescript BH.
Players need to understand that there is a difference between actually cheating/exploiting the game andbeing simply being sneaky & underhanded asa profession dictates. It may seem like a fine line at times, but thelineis there. Sounds like yougrasp the concept and used it to your advantage. Well done! 
Let me just say - awesome. Nice job. You are a true BH/Smuggler. You used your brain. Don't pay any attention to that Jedi (after all, its not your fault that you were born smarter than him), and keep up the good work.

QFE.
And to the OP, nicely done.
The way I see it you did nothing wrong.
As an Imp, I would not hunt my fellow imperials, but that is my own personal choice, and if I were an Imperial who happened to be a Jedi, I would NOT expect the same consideration for me, nor would I blame my fellow Imperials for hunting me.
This Jedi was dueling in public, fully aware that he was building visability. He should have EXPECTED an attack. He may have prefered a "straight fight" as it were, but he was delusional to expect it, or count on it.
It was, as most have said, a good kill.
It took wits
It took patience
It took cunning
Good job!
