I was pretty funny.

2) SWG destroyed by the NGE - Pisssed

3) Cancellation to nerf the dev's pay check, priceless!!

Lazy? I was the first one to post a "Ryatt Trail Report" on these forums.





Ok, so you're not lazy...you just facilitated others being lazy. Noted.

Pleeeeease, let's not act all charitable and helpful because you were providing a "service."


Whoever made up the lists simply listed who THEY saw grinding there. The lists aren't all-inclusive, they target specific players who happened to be around while someone ran by and wrote their name down.


It's the equivalent of saying, "Warryyr grinds 4000m from the Science Outpost at 3301, -8029! Go get him!


Just because seekers aren't working on Kashyyyk doesn't mean you can list random Jedi players' names on the forums and calling them AFK grinders. Doing so on the forums is definitely harassment. Your list doesn't include everyone who grinds in the caves, you can't guarantee only constantly AFK people are on the list, and your defense doesn't hold water.


You're not providing some service to BH's, your harassing specific players that were listed in the threads. Plain and simple.


If you have personal lists, email them to friends, but don't post on all of the forums so every shmo with a BH asperation can go take a crack at the Jedi you named. Let them do their own work. The post-readers aren't "real hunters" either, so don't let your hunting give everything to them, while the Jedi (who are players, too) may get their name plastered around as an AFK grinder when they may not be.






well i would think that trying to control the jedi population by any means available to us is acceptable especially on a planet where we cant even track the jedi. if the jedi is on the terms they are fair game for everyone to kill over and over again. yes we are targetting specific players but who cares if they grinded the way they were suppose to and didnt get on the terms they wouldnt even have to worry about this





Wrong, you can try to control the Jedi population all you like, but not by any means available to you. There are limitations and Terms of Service you must abide by. The ToS isn't contingent upon whether or not your Seeker Droids work someplace.


There is no way Jedi are "supposed" to grind. With any method of grinding Jedi there are risks and rewards. It is not a BH's job to dictate how a Jedi should grind. It's a BH's job to react accordingly when a Jedi chooses to gain visibility, whether it's through grinding, PvP'ing, fighting other BH's, whatever.

well thankfully the tos have nothing to do with your opinion and it didnt say anywhere that iread about not being able to post jedi names/locations etc. anywhere i felt like.



according to the timeline there are very few jedi they are all in hiding and applying that to the way their vis. works is saying if they grind alone and dont get vis.i know this all sounds reduntant and much like i am talking to a child that thinks they know everything but it always happens ok... bh's are to keep the jedi population in control wich is our job. without the bh's keeping the jedi population under control we will be playing in star warsgalaxies jedi'smadeacomebackbetweenep3andep4, wait we already are. there are already too many jedi running around and no one wants jedi in the gcw as it is other than jedi.


i would say it is a bh's job to dictate how a jedi grind by means of pvp death. if a padawan is finding it troublesome to advance levels and does not afk grind in the trails with the rest of his afk cohorts then the padawan must decide to do the grind alone like it was meant to be played not gaining vis and not losing exp

According to the timeline, there's also no non-humans serving in the active imperial military, Mon-cals and Wookiees were considered slave races, you'd never see a stormtrooper just roaming around hunting in military issue armor, or dragging an AT-ST behind him like apoodle.....so take your timeline arguements and shove them, they only seem convienent for you to use in regards to the Jedi.

OK - please let me clarify something about my post. Hunting methods, SWG timeline innaccuracies and anachronisms, playstyles(pve v pvp), grind times are all irrelevant to the question I posed to Garva. The linked post clearly portays using the forums as a means of creating our own 'Spynet' type network of organized Jedi hunting seems to be unfair in their eyes, although it was being used only for Kashyyyk, where they have taken away the use of seeker droids. It also seems to convey an undertone of BH hunting being a form of griefing, specifically where Garva accuses the poster of intentionally harrassing players by giving away their names and locations. I don't see how this is harrassment in any form, as long as it's not accompanied by instructions to send hate /tells or kill steal from anyone on the path. They are Jedi, and if they are on the terms, they can be hunted. If the BH community knows they will not be found through traditional means such as seekers since they are on Kashyyyk, then why should we not be able to organize a player based network to keep track of where they are and publish their locations? This seems to be more in line with real-life bounty hunting, and it actually seems to work pretty well. In fact, it seems that SOE is so gung-ho for getting everyone their Jedi characters that it follows suit that a forum mod would lock and edit the thread. Putting someones ingame name in a post is not harrassment of anykind, there are plenty of non-jedi/bh issues that get posted about and constant flaming and character defamation going on in all of our respective galaxy forums that don't get locked, so why would this one be if not to set a precedent for keeping Kashyyyk BH free and being the Jedi safehouse that it is?

ok first off i didnt say any of those things that you just said were ok did i? anyway lets keep this about the timeline that the devs instituted for us. oh thats right you just argued about anything but jedi which was the topic. next






you quoted the timeline, I showed examples of other timeline inaccuracies that negate using the timeline as a reason for hating one player class, that all, inturpret however you wish,
