The solution for all the jedi whiners.
1. Only let jedi knights be on the terminals.
2. Increase the payout of bountys.
3. Only 2 BH's can hunt the same jedi and any given time.
4. Make an option to auto-decline car rides.
5. Give jedi a15 min TEF, and there not allowed to go in any building nor there house.
6. BH's only have 1 hr to track and kill there bounty before failing the mission.
7. Remove jedi nerfs since CU went live.
8. BH's are allowed recon cert armor and a root insead of a spray shot.
9. BH's can't hunt the same jedi more than once in 24hrs.
10. Do away with jedi being able to force channell to other jedi who are being hunted.
11. Bring back perma death after 10 deaths of a jedi knight.
problem solved.

Honestly I don't like the system at all. The tension between Jedi and BH is way too angry. The causes for this are mentioned in the millions of threads previously, and I'm sure the DEVs know why this is as well.
Baron's Theorem
Hate is good. This is because conflict drives the formation of social bonds and thus of communities. It is an engine that brings players closer together.

Still a good read even after all this time...
*edit* Bah... no clicky-clicky.

How do you guys feel about the current system? I think it should be possible for smugglers and indeed any player class to get on the terms as well. This would be more realistic, and also reduce the number of BH chasing jedi.
DO you feel like its fair for Jedi to be shafted so much, by loosin xp when killed? I think jedi should be shafted more when they are killed, with possible premanent loss of FS abilities after a certain number of BH or Jedi deaths. There are far too many jedi in the game just now, and the numbers must be controlled some way if the game is to avoid becoming Jedi Acadamy.
How do you feel about Jedi running into there houses? I think this is totally valid (as long as there is no tef), as there must be an escape route available for the jedi. However, I think that pulling a house out of your pocket and getting into it is just stupid. Perhaps jedi should be able to nominate 1 safe house per planet with a week long time on changes?
WHat do you think about Jedi grinding on Kashyyyk? If BH can't use droids on Kashyyk, then it should be an xp free zone - purely for quests and rewards, not xp grinding.
Do you think its fair for a Bh to have his or her game play experiance ruined because us Jedi are so afraid of loosing xp? Yes, if I can't keep a jedi still long enough to kill them, I don't deserve the bounty. Jedi should always have the option of running and hiding (see answer about houses)
How do you feel about groups hunting one Jedi? I don't think there is any prob with this. If 5 BHers really want to share a 40k bounty between them, thats fine by me, although I don't really see why they would. Also, full temp jedi (and after FRS comes back, if ever, jedi masters) should NEED a group to take em down. No way should a BH beat em 1v1 unless they are totally caught by suprise.
Do you think Jedi's and BH's could some how setup a system between themselves to make this game a little more fun so both arnt getting screwed? No, thats SOE's job
Thank you for your time Pleasure
Thanks for a well considered and reasonable post, a rare thing from a jedi on this forum!! I do try and see things from the jedi perspective before I open my mouth on the forums. I hope my answers have helped u see things from a BH perspective. In short, I would like to see fewer jedi, more powerful knights (and masters), and other classes on the terms (including BHers). If SOE can acheive these things, I will be a very happy player

OK the way I see it the jedi grinding is fine BH should be allowed to group hunt like said they are not meant to play fair. we should take away the exploits for the houses. If we want to group and show our sabers then we get on the terminals. thats fine with me. Jedi should solo and should take awhile to reach master. otherwise it would be easy and everyone would do it.
I say the people that are hiding in the houses are not worthy ofbecoming Jedi. jedi should remain hidden not dominate the galaxy but help the weak. keep the peace.
I also think there should be a completely different role for light and dark Jedi.
I hope BH get more powerful, as thats what makes Jedi fun the chase and the fear of losing the xp that took so long to get.
I have just started out but will never flame or run from a BH. if I lose then I may even tip the BH if they are kind in return. They are doing their job we as Jedi must do the same. If I lose it is my fault 1 for getting on the terminals in the first place and 2 for not being more focused
Just my 2 cence
Whatever you're smoking, where can I get some ? Tipping a BH for killing you and being polite ? Listen carefully friend DRUGS ARE BAD...

The same thing has happened to the player base in generall, I'm runing into TONS more 15-19 years old peeps as opposed to 25+.I'm positative this has had some effect both on BH v Jedi and the game in generall.
Since you call human beings "peeps", can we assume you're in the 15-19 years old block?

I think most jedi fail to see this point:
You are a jedi, an alpha class, the risk vs reward of being an alpha class is the BHs that hunt you. You are not just another profession in the game.

Hey guys. Well, its a sad time for us all. It truly is. I actually enjoyed the animosity and hate between us and the fighting and stuff. You guys had gotten some real power there towards the end, and we were hoping wed get some too. I know it bothers you alot that you cant have player bounties, but it bothers me too. I dont like the changes at all. Its not fair to vets, and its not fair to bhs that came to this prof to specifically hunt jedi...not just jedi, but player jedi.
The idiot devs truly think that a mindless artificial intelligence creature can compare to that of a human mind in battle. it was that wich i enjoyed so about being hunted. PEOPLE are the ultimate. a bot is no challenge.
Im sorry that they stopped player bounties. that totally shocked me. the dissapointment i have is undescribeable. it truly is. i wont be playing after the 21st because thats when my subscription runs out, hell, idont have the desire to play now seeing everthing will be in vain. but SOE is shooting themselves in the foot. their time willl come. all we can do is hope for an swg 2 WITHOUT HULIOs dumbass and the clown staff of SOE developing the game.
Yeah idiots,i called your tin god hulio (spelled it wrong purposely too) a dumbass,and you fools a clown staff. you can ban me, but its not like ill be playing anyway.
also, what f@wking players did you talk to? What about gizmos vision? you arrogant pricks came up with the dumbest idea ever...thinking u know more? well, when sales come out, youll know, but youll be too arrogant to say you failed...piece of sh1t....
oh and fanfest? there will never be another fanfest. i remember people used to joke about how the devs would be running for cover if they had one considering the past changes, but this?

That was a very....touching post. Im glad to see there is some jedi who understand that this game isnt just about themselves and their profession. I hated and loved jedi, fighting and BHing was the most fun i had in this game. Im sad thats all gonne be dead after the 15th. And i by god hope they do another fan fest so i can b1tch slap the **edit** out of all the devs on the SWG Development Team.
