Whenever a Jedi runs, I always hang around his group (If he was in one). It's to make sure that if he isn't going to lose xp to me, he's not going to gain any in his group.

Sometimes it works too, because the rest of the group will get so fed up that they fork over their friend just so they can continue!






Yeah, really funny. If it were my group, and you were persisting on hanging around us for no particular reason, I'd get a CSR there ASAP with a harassment report, because you won't leave our group alone.


No Jedi, no reason for you to be there.


Since there is no TEF with helping Jedi, and the vehicle thing was fixed, there is no such thing as "accessory to the crime" and there is no way for you to make their group "pay the price."


Grow up and move along, your Jedi is waiting to run away from you again elsewhere. Best to go find them and watch them run away again. Or, here's a thought - stop wasting everyone's time, including your own, and go GET ANOTHER MISSION.

"I have not been hunted by a BH in a while, I wish someone would take my mission"...

you know the ammount of jedi actually coming out with this at the moment...


With offline bugs, house sitting, force cloak etc, basicly we are going to get all this smack talk tosh as they believe the odd are in their faviour.


But just lately I've witnessed alot of smack talk and then...silence as they run for dear life. I know alot of bH get awefully frustrated by the jedi running away etc, but personally it never fails to amuse me.


For exmaple yesterday one chose to run from me, with a usuall root me an dleg it method after he noticed winning was not an option for him. So I catch him upout side of town, but he's force running out into the sandy wilderness of tatooine so I think well ok you go. I walk to the starport and shuttle to a village in the diretion he was running.


Yep here he came straight to shuttle stop, I actually watched him sat for a few seconds buying his ticket, then just as shuttle landed I gulped some piro(exscuse my spelling of that accuracy drink there) and blasted his little robes to dust.


Now again fight had started with "lol okay come on noob"...in yet ended with.................. not a peep.

It's normal for a low-mid level Jedi to run, they're obviously not a finished temp but what I find funny is one Jedi I killed once tried to run away and kept offering me bribes not to kill him but I got him anyways. A month later I see him in MO saying to someone else "I have not been hunted by a BH in a while, I wish someone would take my mission"... good lord.



Perhaps his template is done, you could help him out and grab his mission real quick.

Hehe when I'm on my jedi and when he was actually on the term's.. i ran for a few reasons.. When fighting and seeing that my food/drink filling is near full and slow on stims or whatnot and having a reallllly good fight with the BH(lasting a while) I see I'm more then likely not gonna win, so i run..


Or.... I run around and poke fun at the BH watching him spend hours chasing me around from POI to POI from planet to planet laughing as he could of easily dropped the mission after a while and saw this was pointless for him and go for another easier mark.


Or... Becuase i'm low on health or whatnot when jumped(good move by BH btw, get em while they are down! I agree with this) and I'll take off...


The second reason is the most fun and sadly the most used reason I have done so.. funny to see so many BH's to thickheaded to chase one for hours and then give up.


I do not do the name callings in my poking of fun or when I die from a BH.. it's always a "GF" or "GJ" or "WD" from me. It's part of the game and enjoyable.

I'll put it real simple like for you. For the BH it's all about the thrill of the chase / kill. For the Jedi it's survival, since the BH really has nothing to lose for failing a mission there is no harm in failing, for a Jedi, failing may cost you a few hours to a few days worth of work. (Dont forget some people only play for an hour at a time)





Umm... Is this "shortbus" real simple? Your comment makes no sence. A Jedi wants to survive and runs and exactly how does thatjustify corny excuses. This thread is about corny excuses notthe reason why they are running. Several BH have already established that ifa Jedi gets away then they get away. That is not the topic here; we already know why Jedi run.





Simple, it doesn't. Though I've never backed down from a fight, sometimes I win, sometimes I lose. But others may take the easier path and run, and they can't be faulted for that, but lets be honest, they should just say "Sorry bud, don't want to risk the xp". It is then your job as a BH to come for them and make sure they don't have a chance to run.

I'm not BH content.


BH's are my content. Sometimes I feel like fighting. When I feel like it, I do.


Sometimes I'm not interested in fighting. I have options and will never make excuses for excercising those options.


The sad part is that some Jedi feel like they need to make excuses for not risking exp.

Like Bh dont run, had one try jump me twice ran each time, on third we fought and then I chased him all way to the starport where he used JTL term to take off a tatic I see Bh cry about all the time when Jedi use it. Will I run from a fight you bet unlike a Bh I got something to lose if I lose. Oh bythe way I never have AFK grinded or grinded Jedi xp on kash thank you.

all these jedi running away like pansies show me 2 things

A) this is what happens when u grind a jedi on kashyyyk afk , they know nothing about pvp or how jedi works

B) jedi are nothing without their gank squads


now in the past 3 days ive only killed 3 jedi tops , the rest run , hide, cloak , run into a SF base and log out or do the logout/login trick to keep the droids from tracking , hell just last night i had a full temp jedi run like a pansie into a rebel SF base , so i ride off , tyhe coward sends me a tell " you have no patience do you " i respond not for pansies that run and hide in bases , and this is what the tells me " i just needed to get my foods ready and full force " lol i tell him , i supposed u want a doc buff and 4 premium pearls to go with that rofl , his other lame excuse was " you found me when i was tanking a lair" , lets see here next time ill send him a tell when im 100m away from him so he can be fully alerted , now he kept sending me tells how i wasnt even close to killing him and this and that yet he was running like the true coward he is , now dont take me wrong there a plenty of jedi outthere that have killed me, even when i use the element of suprise , so ever since i started to bh , i can tell the good jedi from the coward running weasel jedi , and let me tell you there are a lot

I've found far more respect for those jedi who low on force in a bad way etc, have still stood there ground against the odds, than those who give it all the "come on fight me then" obviously buffed pre cu'd yaddy yaddy yadda.

Ok, sure, the offerride was fixed, but there is still the matter of Jedi DBing their friends to evade the BHs DB. So yes, in those cases, I still hang around the group. If they want to be involved in my mission, then I will be involved in theirs.


DBing Jedi friend to avoid xp loss= Accessory to the crime in my book.

Its funny how Jeditalk alotof smackonly when their 1.5 times stronger character is fully templated. Where were before becoming a fully temp Knight oh that's right on the run or hiding in houses. The whining about Jedi not gaining anything for killing BH is BS. The price you pay for attempting to have an overpowring character is you will be hunted. You can run but you can't hide sooner or later one of us will get you. I always say kick'em when their down.


I know that in the back of Jedi's mind is always the possiblity that one of us will get them. When and where is the question.





hehe he said we were overpowered. LOL not lately bub. If we were so overpowered you BH would fall down dead lot more easily.
