Ah, I'll be outta town this weekend. Maybe when I get back. Of course, I could be lying to lure you into a false sense of security.


BTW, when was the last time you died at the hands of a BH?

LOL ok trash talk is only ok for the weak like you ... right ...

Fact is the guys seemed kinda dumb who were trash talking you in the first place, based on the quotes
and you still got burned

might wanna try Image Designer for a bit




Please, divulge and answer a few of my questions regarding your post:



1. How am I weak? "Thats basically what a Jedi is saying when they (being 1.5x stronger) say, "Why don't you attack me. Let's fight! I'm ready!"


2. How am I associated with trash talk when my original post states that I had nothing to say that even resembled an insult or trash talk in any way? You need to learn the art if you are gonna play BH or jedi try reading Quiet420's post I replied to in the first place. It is really short and good reading


3.How did I get "burned?" "I hop on my Barc and say, "Good hunting," trying to be a polite BH. But then the entire group starts labeling me a pu$$y because I won't attack head on. Even low level toons were saying, "Just attack you wuss." I told them that if they wanted to sit here and tell me to attack, all the while the jedi's vis is going up, then it was fine with me. I was going to leave."


4. Not as much a question, but more a statement. You are still missing the point of the original post. Please stay on topic. Very profound.







/sigh ok ok ill humor you


its all for the good of enlightenment and education after all /pat self on the back






Not one of those is a valid answer, but ok. As far as trash talk, I know the game. I'm just not 12 years old and really don't see any point to it. I haven't dropped the mission so I'll let my DB do the talking.


You are just trying to start a flame war, it's apparent.

lol yeah learn /trashTalk2 and get the whole experience
Star Wars is all about trash talk and psychological warfare, look at all the jedi duels in the 6 movies
Or if you wanna fight against other players with all the personality of NPC's go play WoW or Jedi Academy on XBox




I think you two are missing the point of the post. I don't have a problem with the trash talking, and if you read one of my responses I say that I expect it.


My problem lies with the Jedi who tell disgruntled bounty hunters, "Well if you wanna kill jedi, use tactics! Don't run up and start firing! Catch me when I'm not ready!" and then go on to b!tch to you if you don't wait for them to buff/food before you attack. The hypocrisy is what is wrong. I just wish some of these Jedi would see that.


Trashtalking is expected. Both sides do it. However, Bounty Hunters never say, "Why don't you get low on force and then attack a Krayt so I can DB you! You wuss!" Thats basically what a Jedi is saying when they (being 1.5x stronger) say, "Why don't you attack me. Let's fight! I'm ready!"

I'll agree some of the people that play a Jedi character are just idiots. But I hope you guys know that 1. Not all jedi are stupid and 2. It is not THE Jedi, it is the people that play the Jedi. There are some very nice Jedi out there and there are some who just like to show off and talk smack. ( I do not do this).But I can't say it isjust us , since there are quite a few BH's that are like that to, but I know there are mature ones as well.

I will run up to jedi on purpose just for this reason.


I do this all the time... except i donot leave.


Who cares what group says... really


I will wait at 50 meters for jedi while he runs all his force macro.. for as long as i want.



The groups will say you are preventing grinding.. this is bs they can still grind so can the jedi... they are choosing not to.


Nothing we are doing is preventing their game play and watching a player is not a hurassment.... If the Jedi did not exploit he/she would have no conformation you even had his/her mission.


If jedi are going to exploit the duel endduel... why let it be effective.


Wait for hours ( I will start to grind the lairs too while I wait)... the jedi will waste food and force waiting for you to attack... then when you are ready... eat your food and attack.










The /duel tactic has been removed so therefor you all have your surprise back. This tactic is ridiculous. If your not going to actively shoot the jedi when he is grinding or whenever following him around to annoy him is a violation of the TOS. You can ignore people yes, but you definatly still see them. If I see someone I don't like or don't know trailing me I am gonna get a tad irritated as most would.


In my opinion, if your not gonna take the shot go do something else and come back later, but blatently harassing the jedi by hovering is not the answer. Also in this sitution you could possibly be trying to get other jedi grinding vis. Not all jedi want to be on the terms and want to PvP. So I dunno, you have the freedom to make your own choices, but as far as this one goes even when roleplaying is concerned - its low-life.

Re: Trashtalking Jedi

Yes it happens on both sides. I love when it happens. Means you did something to really annoy them. You did well. Don't fall for the bait of them egging you on to the point of engaging in combat under THEIR TERMS.
What probably happened soon after you rode off, the Jedi was watching his radar like a paranoid hawk when he was engaged with something,

So last night I'm out hunting Jeds. I fly out to Lok, and track my mark. I get within about 150m and lay on cover and start to move in. Unfortunatley a swarm of Gurks spawn 15m away and break my cover. Well, the Jedi and his group spot me and rush over. A couple Jedi use the /duel exploit as does my mark. He says, "I know you've got my mission. I tried to duel you."


No kidding?


So I tell them that I'm not going to attack and that I'll come back later. I've lost my first strike. I hop on my Barc and say, "Good hunting," trying to be a polite BH. But then the entire group starts labeling me a pu$$y because I won't attack head on. Even low level toons were saying, "Just attack you wuss." I told them that if they wanted to sit here and tell me to attack, all the while the jedi's vis is going up, then it was fine with me. I was going to leave.


Then they say they will report ME!!! Wth, what have I done? I offered to leave!


So after a few more minutes of calling me various names, I say, "Listen, if a BH whines about not being able to kill Jedi, he is countered by Jedi saying 'Don't attack guns-a-blazin or when the Jedi is ready, use tactics.'"


All of a sudden the group got silent until one guy said, "Good point." More silence followed by, "Ok, well, we'll see ya later."


After that, no hate tells. Do jedi even realize how hypocritical they can be?




you dont hate me do you Grymace

They should give jedi the skill of Advanced Hypo-Critical Shot.


They use it whenever they are being an a$$ and need to recover.

I really don't understand some Jedi, or I should say the people that play them. Yesterday I jumped a Jedi that was riding by on his swoop. I managed to cut him off perfectly. Destroyed his swoop and laid him on his back. I started racking up damage when he got up with a sliver of health. Then he Cloak'd and was gone. I immediately dropped the mission and left. I am not playing Cloak games with Jedi.


Anyway, he sends me tells about how I need to respect swoops and this and that. Respect a swoop?? Still don't get that one. I informed him that it is a valid tactic to disable any means a jedi has to escape. He then told me to get some friends (not sure what that meant either), to which I replied he is the one traveling in a pack, I am the solo BH. After that I asked him why a 15K swoop upset him so much when he obviously had enough cash to outfit his Jedi to which he laughed at me and said he gets swoops for free from a friend. He then laughed at me for having to pay for swoops. All this while I was on my BARC.


I just stopped responding after that. I have no idea what that kid was thinking or his reasoning. Sometimes you just don't ask questions.







You could have some fun with this. when ever you get his mission just blast his swoop and leave. I would do that every time. HeckI just might go overt and blast his swoops cause im having a bad day.
