What's done is done and there was no system put in place to slow down the rate of jedi only speed it up.I think what needs to be done now is not to stop the amount of people becoming jedi but really push at making it so to see a jedi would be rare. This would involve once again making the jedi become a secretive profession, but with a strong sense of a jedi community. This may be implemented in the new FRS, but i think it really needs to be pushed. exactly how this could happen im not to sure about which is why i posted to see if anyone had any ideas about what could be done so that once again Jedi could be a spectacle rather than just another player who waves a lightsabre.
here is an idea that could really cut down the Jedi population DRASTICALLY....
Every jedi who complains about the amount of Jedi other than his own should set a good example by deleting their own... if this happens, I guarantee the Jedi population would drop by at least 90%!

Permadeath would for sure make jedi keep a low profile. By that I mean permanent loss of all jediskills when DBd in PvP the 3rd time on a week. Death in PvE will only cause xp loss.
If you got 3 chances in a week you have the opportunity to save the toon if DBd while LDd due to a technical failure.

For god sake read my post, the only one that has done so is jargal. The rest of you have read the thread title and posted. Its not to late for popn. control all they have to do is make it so that jedi dont show their faces as much. same amount of jedi just they have to hide away more. Im not complaining about the amount of jedi, just make it seem like there are less by making less show their faces. It would also solve atrguments about jedi free servers and such as people wouldnt see them very much
"Its clear that there are too many jedi on servers these days, even mine, euro-infinity which probably has no where near as many."
You have admitted in thar one line of text that population control does not work. If there are already to many Jedi to your standards than population is pointless.
I read the post from beginning to end.
Yes I strongly agree that something needs to be done.
Click on the 3rd link in my sig.
In short what I am suggesting is that jedi will be able to choose if they want to fight a specific opponent with risk of going forever to the netherworld if they lose. If they win (0.001%)they gain extra skill points.

I never showed my face in public i.e. hunting in groups , tilSOE made it were to get any decent xp was to get in groups. I used to hunt out in the wilds taking out whatever wild spawns that I could handle on my own, Now, you are forced to group to get missions that are your combat lvl to get any xp.
This is the main reason that we see so many jedi around. Before we could hide and hunt anywhere, now we are forced to group to get any decent xp.
I was getting decent xp solo pre-cu, now xp solo is a joke.
SOE made it this way, not we as jedi. Unless SOE comes up with a solution,(which wont happen since jedi accounts= more cash for them) there will be an over-abundance of jedi.

SOE made it this way, and I doubt if anyone posting for jedi to go back into hiding would work, since jedi are forced to be seen now.
