Thread: this is becoming a MAJOR problem
You realize you are saying that they should be allowed to afk grind the trail right?
So, refrain your comments on how easy it is to go to kashyyk and kill the afk trail grinding jedi, because nobody cares for the second time in case you didn't comprehend me telling you the first. Unreal...

You can currently decide if you want to hunt on Kashyyyk. You get the waypoint, and make a decision.... The developers will never make the Jedi's planetary location available on the terminal. However, I am a supporter of removing AFK jedi from the terminals. But that would require much more coding than the devs probably will do.
I think it's easy money though, personally. Sure it involves more work than some people care to do.... but it's possible. It was great when you could pull the mission by name. I used to run down there get like 10 names, and kill them all in succession.
I don't get it. AFK grinding is just lame in my book. Yeah yeah.. you can get some exp while you're asleep or at work.. whatever. It's just dumb. I wuldn't go to the extreme of changing any game mechanics, what I would do is what the CSR's did one night. Start warping those afk'ers to the bottom of the DWB.
I have 2 Jedi toons and I have never once condoned AFK grinding on the Rryatt. If you find out that I'm on Kassyk it's because I'm using it for what it was made for, running quests. Period. I nuderstand a lot of Jedi are using Kassyk more now due to the SL thing, the no force shrines on Mustafar, and other points of contention. In that regard, so be it.
I can understand not wanting to be BH content and Kassyk is the best place to go quest without getting hunted. I cannot understand why AFK grinding can ever be seen as acceptable for a combat class. Yeah, I could set my toon up at 7am and come home to some more exp in the evening but I just think it's lame. It's like afk housesitting. If I'm in my house, I'm decorating or sorting through thousands of resources, not trying to grief a BH that probably would have been honorable.
I guess no one plays by the golden rule anymore. I blame the 10% of Jedi/BH that would rather grief, exploitor be Uber.
Oh yeah.. a few months back when this was first going on....
BH'ers became quite adept at taking a Jedi's mission, flying to Kassyk, and just quickly running through the trail instances to find their mark. It's actually pretty quick to do. You know exactly where they're at. All you have to do is warp down to the path and haul through those spiders. You'll find them standing there, smacking wookies and low on their force bar. Should be an easy kill if they're actually afk.
I knew quite a few BH'ers (including myself when I had my MBH tag) that got some very nice kills that way. Also, now when they die and clone in the trails they come right back to that spot. Making it even easier to fnid them again.

You people fail to understand the concept. Nobody cares about how easy it is to go to kashyyk and go through all the instances of the trail because that is most likely where they will be. The problem is all the bounties leading to kash. Who wants that? Only the toad MBHs that's who.

Funny. The OP seemed to be asking just exactly that.
Reading comprehension > you.
Save your energy so you can type this whine out again for Mustafar. The rest of us do whatever it takes to kill our mark.

Toad MBH,now that's funny.BH what is that? It's somebody that kills a mark for money.Sounds pretty toady to me all around.We are paid to hunt down and kill a mark who cares where they are.If you care that much about them beingonkash then don't take the mission or do NPC missions you'll be much safer that way.

This is same type of thinking that goes along with the /kickdoor or /picklock idea. The same as theidea thatJedi shouldn't be allowed to run. The same as the idea that we need to be X times stronger.....
It's ridiculous really. These ridiculous idea posts never change anything, and the sad, lazy, "i want an I win" button players keep on posting them. They move from one issue to the next every few days, constantly stating the same tired arguments over and over. Tomorrow's "new" topic will be Jedi who Force Run away. Then it will be "AFK House Sitters" again, followed by "cool-down exploiters" then "/duel exploits"
Ah well..... best thing you can do is just NOT post comments on these types of things, since it only seems to feed the argument.

Oh yea it's easy money , to have to hyperspace to kashyyk. Then go to the ryatt trail and guess which instance they are in. There's only, what, 10 of them? Yea let's go through all 10, won't take you but, what, 2 hours or so to check them all.
if it takes you 2 hours to check them.....stuck in walk mode or something?
