I hunt jedi almost exclusively and our server may have much less than others as far as bh volume--but I havent heard any rumors of how to get same jedi mission. I and a couple others looked for trends like payout amount, mission name giver, and description ie "foul jedi murderer" but havent noticed any real trend that would identify the same mission --UNLESS this changed in a recent publish, why are the jedi so whiney all of a sudden???

You can say the same about BHs

Not in that extreme. BH may whine about "tactics" the Jedi pull off, but Jedi whine about EVERYTHING and other professions besides BH.

The question is relating to:
BH mission =36,235 = (jedi name) = 36,235 ALWAYS = (same Jedi name)
I've had the same BH come for me with 3-4 minutes after failing his mission. He was able to hit the terminals and pull the SAME payout and hunt me _IMEDIATELY_ afterwards. Yes, I sent him to the cloner although it was by accident - lag and slidding incap causes triple incap.
Try it, get on Teamspeak and have 5 BH's search for the _EXACT_ same $ payout and have everyone pull the SAME one. See if you can get more then 2 on a Jedi. 
I've been hunted by two at the same time on more then one occasion. I have a few guildies who said they were hunted 4 and 5 times all back to back by the same BH. (play on Bria - this is not by chance - I trust the player who informed me of this for he's a working professional and has nothing to gain from fibbing)
*note: look at the previous posts in this thread adn you'll see more imature "whinning" then most other forum threads. Ignorance or hypocritical? You decide.

Multiple BH on a Jedi is still very likely. I had one in a player city and was about to pounce, but another BH came up and started. He won!!! Yaay for BHs everywhere!!!!

In addition to what my Comrade in Arms says above you also have to factor in that the missions only show for those Jedi who are currently on line. On a server with a large Jedi population this may not have much effect, but a server with a smaller Jedi population it could be a major factor why BH's are getting the same mission.

Well, it's dependant on server population, too.
If you have a high volume of BH taking missions, it is very likely that several jedi missions get "capped" and have 5 BHs after them. Now, if two BHs meet somewhere close to the mark, they might figure and team up.
On the other hand, real group hunting is possible by comparing the amount paid, but I don't see why this is to be fixed, the efforts needed are far too high to do this all the time.
Regarding this "he came after I killed him" - since when are BH missions reset on BH death? (I, to date, never lost; I, honestly don't know but think it's not like that).

This was in response to Necrisoth (or however it's spelled)'s first post.

only 6 on three pages? That all?! At least BH only complain about 2 professions...Jedi complain about everyone else. And everyone else complains about Jedi. Hmmmmm....a trend?
