wow you guys are f***ing as*holes. i just asked a f'king question jesus. i can tell that half you idiots didn't even read my post because your replies do not even make any sense. i didn't say how do jedi get on the terminals, i said why do they show up if they are offline? and no one even answered me, i guess you all don't even know why.


you can't tell me that you don't get annoyed when 20/20 jedi that you would like to hunt are offline but yet, their mission still pops up on the terminals constantly when they haven't been online in even 8 hours.


christ, you all need to learn some respect. i came in here asking a simple question, i didn't flame any of you for anything and you reply with a bunch of flames for no reason. if you all want to act like that then ok i'll do the same.





Respect is earned, not granted.

It takes days to properly hunt your mark anyway. What's the problem?

Yes, it should take 3 days to make 150k. Makes perfectly sense to me (not)

Jeez guys give him a break.....it is annoying that offline jedi are shown on the terms but lastnight i had no problems finding and locating at least 4 jedi, im thinking if you play early morning then most jedi will be tucked up in there pits asleep, play at peak times and theres no problem at all, goto a term look for a price you like ..... find there name .... quick check on friends list to see if there on and away you go to the spynet op....go luanch ya droid and find out there on kash lol or track them to dant where there hiding in a house or guildhall........ patience is a virtue jedi killer, when you find one out grinding or actually willing to fight that buzz far outways the fact of whether jedi are online or not

wow you guys are missing the whole point. yes, i know i can add them to my friends list to check if they are online or offline, BUT I SHOULDNT HAVE TO. because you all are so stupid you can't figure out the message of the post, here it is:


OFFLINE JEDI SHOULD NOT BE ON THE TERMINALS


I guess you guys can't read or something. Who the hell wants to sit there and refreshing missions and keep adding random people to their friends list just to see if their are online? The fact of the matter is it's very annoying. You shouldn't have to do this. I'm sure SOE didn't intend for us to be adding jedi to our friends list non stop to see who's online and who's not. Think about it.....


I wouldn't mind if there were just some offline on the terminals, but it's stupid when 80-90% of the listed jedi are offline. I know theres plenty of jedi with high enough visibility to get on the terminals because eventually after 20 minutes of /add name you find one who is online, but it doesn't make sense that the jedi that are offline come up non-stop on the terminals and people who are online do not. Don't you guys see what I'm saying? It doesn't make any f***ing sense. Why do offline jedi consistently appear whereas jedi who are online killing sh!t and raising their visibility hardly make it up on the terminals but once ever couple of hundred refreshes. I can sit at the terminals with my friend and we will both look for the same mission, we will both see plenty of the same offline jedi, but when it comes to online jedi it's often difficult for both of us to get lucky enough to find the same person's mission. Say my friend takes a mission for John Doe,I can sit and refresh the terminals for 30 minutes and see the same offline jedi over and over and over, but I won't see John Doe because there's so many offline jedi that it takes forever for his mission to actually come up. Have a group of friends with you and look for bounties, see if you can all find the same online jedi, pretty tough... now see if you can all find the same offline jedi.... very easy. This is my point, it shouldn't be like this.


I don't care how easy jedi are to kill or how hard... Idon't care how easy it is to track them on a planet, I don't even care if they are AFK grinding on kashyyyk, but I would actually like to hunt someone instead of add people to my friends list and then remove them because they are offline, it's just stupid.

Haha!! Don't tell me you became a BH to make money?? That'd be hilarious. Of course you didn't. You did it to actually be a BH, right? Right??


Whoever thinks that BH is a money-making profession has his wires crossed in his head.

Dude, If the jedi has vis, the jedi has vis. Just cause he's not online doesn't mean his vis went away. /commonsense off

Vision isnt a horrible thing for jedi now, its a fact of life, the jedi that fight in the middle of cities are only being punished as much as the padawan that hunts in a group with his friends. If group vision is taken off than offline jedi should perhaps be turned off. Probably the biggest reason its on right now (besides the fact that bounty hunting isnt suppose to be a quick and easy job) is that it gives starting padawans a little more time before they are hunted so they can possibly gain (heaven forbid) some positive experience between hunts

First off you must be some kind of nerd to type something like /commonsense. I can't stand people like you who blend the internet and SWG with reality. Second, if a Jedi has vis they get on the terminals, but then why dont all the online jedi with vis show up? Or maybe it's just that the terminals are so lagged like everything else in this game, that by the time it recognizes a jedi's visibility they have already gone offline.... that would make the most sense because this is the laggiest and buggiest game ever created.

Dearest Lemon,


I'd like to start off by suggesting you pick up a different profession. Patience, strategy and diligence are key to being a good Bounty Hunter. (just a personallity assessment)


Now, to the point. I believe that offline Jedi should be on the terminals. Just becausethey logged off, doesn't mean noone wantsthem dead anymore.


Your also getting a little too pissed off at the other people posting. Makes it hard to be reasonable with you.


Final statement, I think its time for you to reroll your BH to something else, and perhaps you yourself can reroll at life.

It's because the jedies have alt so they take their mission and ask friends to hold their mission so they can grind with out having bh go after them. fidning a jedi online takes over an hour cause of that reason which SOE noobs don't care.


I know a couple that i fought that took their own 4 missions so they can solo bhs and they where kinghts too.
