Thread: Stop jedi gamebreaking hiding!
Its all true. Ive been found out.
/hand up
I freely admit to paying $15 a month to immerse myself in a game by sitting in my house all night.
and its just to annoy the OP.
<tch>
No jealousy at all. Jedi is in fact easier to become then BH. You can in fact become a full temp jedi without even being at home, thanks to all AFK macros. So, theres nothing to be jealous of.

sure jedi is easier to grind.
especially when you are afk in your house all the time.
ive perfected the 'move crystal up' macro to perfection.

When I went BH (before publ 9) and jedi came up on the terms, we had names and rewards. Today it has changed, i cant pull a mission on a jedi i know isnext to meanymore.
Therefore our circumstances has changed, and therefore jedis circumstances should also change to make a good compromise.
Keep it coming plz...
are you 10 years old or just a fool. the game has changed for every one.
if the player is afk in their house doing what ever . cooking dinner or a bath room brake get over it.
one fix is that you should not see a jedi in their privet house at all.
two fix go get another target to hunt fool.
I agree the extended AFK needs to be dealt with, however it needs to be done with care. I am often in my house, not afk, but on guildchat or crafting/planning template etc.
if a CSR comes and boots me out of my house because a bh whines about afk unfairness I will be less than impressed.
If I get logged off automatically when im in the middle of something I need to do I will also be unimpressed.
I dont think jedi should get anything from fighting BH as long as we get the choice to fight. the OP wanted forced pvp, to take away our right to play the game as we see fit.
In that instance we need some incentive otherwise I will run/hide/do what ever i want.

I think when it is a problem is when people dont sign off line and just sit in a house all night for the soul purpose of wasting a BH's time. Also i have no doubt they will notice when checking server logs and the problem will be put toa stop.Why do you Jedi think you should get something for fighting a BH? You are the one being hunted, Your life is what you get. Its that precious xp you get when you live. You dont seem do understand though do you? Jedi are over running the server, BH is here to put a stop to that. You are supposed to lose xp because there is far to many of you already. Its turning the game into something itwas never supposed to be.
When are BH going to realize you are not the Jedi Police. The BH/Jedi war exists only for fun. Your job is not to control the Jedi population. Killing a Jedi does not control the population in any way. If your me you just get in a spinner group and regrind that 400k in an hour. And yes I can sit in my house afk all I want. I may be a Jedi but I still the the same player rights as anyone else. No one made you become a BH and I dont have to be your content. If you find a Jedi AFK in his house, dump the mission and find a new one. Just becuase you have my mission does not mean I have to fight you.

I have to say that I find it amazing that Jargal is still posting his ill conceived ideas despite the countless posts from BOTH Jedi and BH's battering him left right and centre. I think we have a maschoist on our hands guys, there is no other explanation.
Fargal: get a clue, the fact that two proffessions that are normally at each others throats are teaming with each other to slam your posts should give you an idea that this is not the best thing you have come up with. Go away, think about things and only come back when you have had all these negative posts explained to you properly as you have made it clear that you just don't have the slightest bit of comprehension about this area of the game (or at least a balance view)

Chicken jedi's, com out of your houses!!
I had 4 mission yesterdag with hidding jedi!
Argh!!!
no we are all cooking marshmallows.
Hunt npc's.
you are complaining because your mark being in his house afk is gamebreaking because you have wasted time getting to him to find that he does not feel like coming out of his house if he is there talking with his friend or doing anything else.. or really afk which is the same thing.
so to you gamebreaking = wasted time, so lets say that a bh gets a mission on a jedi tracks him down and gets the kill... that jedi will lose xp any amount up to almost 500k of jedi xp
if the jedi in question is in a good area grinding group killing cl 82 pikets on dant he can get that back in about 2-3 hrs if they know what they are doing, unfortunately not many ppl know how to tank a lair of cl 82 pikets, if you want get in a full group and try to tank it see how you like it. if the same jedi decides to or actually grinds solo it will take him about 1-2 weeks of 3-4 hours a day of grinding which is 21-56 hrs of grinding.
a bh takes 15 min to find an afk jedi that it's sitting in their house since most jedi are guilded and live in player cities that by now most have a shuttle or another city shuttle near by it not, we are not talking about the pvp jedi that keeps planet hopping looking for a fight it takes 15 min of your time.
so what is more "gamebreaking" in your way to see this word. a bh wasting 15 min on a mission which happens with npc's too even more at time, or the jedi that has lost 2-3 hrs of his time if he's in a group and 21-56 hrs if he grinds solo?
keep in mind that the hermit style jedi is pretty much now gone since the CU and then even more once they removed group visibility. The CU has made this game a group grinding game so the solo grind is out of the question.
no one knows more than jedi what wasting time is, when there was still group visibility and names were on the missions i saw how the same bh attacked the same jedi over and over again, to the point were my friend had to log off because he was so much in the hole that it was pointless, he got attacked about 6 times in the period of 3 hours, 1 attack every 30 min on a padawan that was worth 50k.
sorry but your request will never happen as it is just dumb and pointless.
won't let me use html sniff sniff
