haha, this happens a lot.. just tell the jedi it was a good fight and you look forward to seeing him again someday, maybe he will win next time blah blah blah, tell the onlookers that it will be their turn next when you get their mission and if they are not a jedi then you have no buisness dealing with low-lifes such as themselves, incap the challenge duel noobs if they are an easy target and leave.
not everyone plays by the role playing rules ...tried it twice and got some people banned for awhile because of some of the nasties they sent out in spital because they can't play there characer.

I've noticed this alot. Most of the insults don't even come from the mark, its those Jedi cheerleaders.
If I win or lose I usually tell the jedi good fight, and its usually cool.

I've told my friends to remain absolutely silent in case of a BH, win lose or draw.

Ever notice that they're grouped and trying to do a mission when you attack? Chances are they're waiting for "the BH problem" to end so they can get one of their fighters back.
The BH problem used to be almost as bad as "The AFK guy" - you know the one. He goes AFK every 10 minutes for God knows how long at a time. Used to be - now that the BH problem seems to have lessened, its become more palatable when it shows up again.

That and sometimes PvP fights just look cool
This happens to me all the time. And when the noobs toss out their duel requests I usually incap them before they can /endduel. I give them the same treatment as the Jedi...a nice cold DB.
One instance yesterday the crowd was like "Kill that stupid BH." The Jedi was no match for me. He probably would have been worth 160k-200k in credits and he was fighting a losing battle. He was actually dumb enough to try and duke it out tho. His mind was gone and had it not been for LOS to his advantage in Bestine I would have destroyed him. I told him during one of the exchanges that he was "only gonna die tired" in spatial and some idiot in the crowd said "you are the only one who is going to die". The Jedi runs away and I lose him...big deal...not like that doesn't happen all the time...ran to Corellia and got in a house. And this same idiot yells "Owned."
If "Owning" someone requires running away and being a coward, then I hope I never "own" anyone.

this is not just a BH/Jedi thing... anytime there is PvP involved, there will always be the smack talkers afterwards. Ever stand and watch PvP in starports? Those coming out of the cloner most often come out with mouths a'blazin, regardless of profession...usually with their machine-gun mouthed friends in tow.
That was when i was killing reb mobs in a city lol........
