The option to get viz is mine and mine alone. No one, nothing and no excuses give viz. I know the mechanics and am aware of the bugs. I go on the terms 'cs it's how I want to play.Bring on the Bountyhunters!!!
how exactly do you stop drive by spectators or npc's from spawning on you? i'd really like to know about the last one.

I'm assuming you're someone who's not played the game more then a few weeks even though your forum access was registered some time ago. Ebay? Ok j/k 
Try spamming ESC ESC ESC which will dump all your actions. You do NOT gain viz unlesss you "spend or consume force" and/or equip, unequip a lightsaber (robes are questionable) while withing 32m of any Humanoid character regardless of Vendor, NPC or Player. If you are in a group and someone rides up on you the server will load them at 60m which at point most players will have the reaction time to dump their combat queus and remove themselves from combat.
The trick is not forgetting to turn off your AutoAttack 'cs if an NPC attacks you there's a chance you will inadvertantly attack back thus spending force for the attack and creating viz.
I've been on the terminals for about 5 consquetive months without being removed. I have no problem with this and it's shaped my game play. Before I was even able to handle a BH I would intentionally gain viz to enhance my game play. The last hunt on me pre CU was Havok. We chased each other around the warren for about 30 minutes and it was by far one of the best encounters with a BH I've ever had.
If they happen to spawn near a jedi, then good for them.
I had one attack me at the Dant MO. Thought it was a bh coming for me until I saw the chevrons. And I didn't want vis from healing mid MO, so I ran.
After reading this post, I think it was prolly someone's bh mission. But after I ran away it despawned.
What isn't true is that they hunt Jedi. They may attack one passing by but that's about it.
