Cloaking and running is a valid tactic for avoiding a fight. Running to a bugged place is not.

Earlier today I ran away from a BH, but I specifically ran to a spot away from the bridges and cloaked. I don't want to PvP, and as far as I can see the one and only option to me at the moment is the cloak skill. My offensive skills suck because I chose to have this skill, but thats my choice for my playstyle. I am all about defense. Healer / defender and cloak. I don't fight, I get away.

oh and about the afk grinding, it's my experience that more and more Jedi down there have had it with afk grinding, if someone goes afk for more than 30 mins they kick them from the group. So BH coming down are finding more and more ATK Jedi down there, and if they looking for easy kills, they not getting them. Some BH got to the trail, write down names of all the Jedi in the instance, use /eject or /unstick to get out quick, and are back to the spot within 10 mins if they lucky enough to get the mission quickly. (/unstick , trip to Starport , Travel to Kadaara takes around 1 min. 3-4 mins to find mission, and 5 -10 mins to get back to spot.)

I'm not going to get into the whole /unstick debate either. Thats an exploit too. /burstrun will take you back to the trail guide and you will not get incapped. By the time they realise you there, you are waaay past the mobs. Total trip time increases by maybe 2 mins.

Hell it's easy to spot which Jedi are AFK, and kill them specifically. More and more they the ones not fighting, but standing closer to the group. The ones running around or talking back are the ones that are going to fight back. So choose your playstyle, find the mission and you set.

You say running and cloaking are valid tactics. I agree. The argument is playability. So you have a valid tactic, so be it, what is the counter? A player with a MBH template spends HOURS trying to find his mark, overcomes the non-sense of Kashykk so that a Jedi with a valid tactic can just disapear? Where is the valid counter-tactic for the BH? Game Over, Start Over, Devote several more hours and hope it doesnt happen again?

At FF the Devs were an impressive bunch. Sometimes, however, I wonder what world they live in.

This is a game, and games need to be playable. That is a key factor to making the game fun and reasonable. Every Jedi makes a choice to enter the world of BH'ing and pvp'ing.

How is it playable, how is it a game when an entire planet leaves them in relative anonymity with little risk of detection? Oh, and please add force cloak to the equation when they are discovered.

Great job Devs, tell us to do our jobs (at FF Anaheim 1) and keep the population down. Thengive them a perfect spawning ground to make mastery with little to no repurcussions, give them the ability to cloak and totally disappear and THEN unleash them on the pvp world. Blame the BH for not doing their jobs.

Feel free to search the Galactic vender and see who is making millions hording and selling all of Kashy's high-end loot items. On Ahazi, its alot of Jedi. Innoncently grinding on Kash? Farming millions is more like it.

This is ridiculous I launched 12 different droids on 12 different BH missions, ALL on Kash, everyone. I tried to overcome and make it fun went on foot to the planet a searched the old fashioned way, with my own two eyes. I finally find the Jedi, after hours of searching, and he cloaks and runs away. Great Job Devs! Great Job...why are we Master Bounty Hunters? What is our Job? Must be dealing with impotence.

You forgot to mention the Line of Sight bugs. I see far more jedi run to those, than I do AFK grinders on my server.
