If the jedi gets vis and does a stupid thing as go AFK or LD because they are to lazy to find a safe place to do that...then so be it. Kill them LD, AFK, or PVP'ing. Most jedi will say they don't care if they get vis, but will cry when they get ganked.
As for jedi running when they run out of force, I would do the same. I like it when they get their force back up and start the poo talk. I like to make them log after they do that. ....|[if I were to tell a jedi that they didn't win and that I just ran out of action/mind/health..how dumb would that sound?|]
Some jedi would even complain about the forced PVP. The solution is simple, don't get vis. Many jedi were able to keep themselves off the terms PreCU, why not do the same post. From experience though, the ebay'd jedi are the ones to complain with a passion. They just spent hundreds of bucks for an account, guess I would complain also.
Had a jedi tell me that he was going to report me for stalking him....I about pee'd myself when he said that. I was able to kill him when he went LD a few weeks later.
Thats exactly what I'm saying, force is just another HAM bar.

Also about the don't get visibility thing, thats hard for Post-cu, as I have grinded jedi post cu aswell I know how it is. alot of the time you'll run into an NPC, or some BH that rides up for someone else's mission gives the group visibility, or just someone that wants in the group runs up, and gives the mvisibility aswell. Its an unavoidable aspect of the game right now. the only real way to avoid it is to solo grind in nowhere yavin4 and look out for stranded rebel/imperial soldiers.

Boba Fett and Jango took most of their pray alive, unfortunately that isn't an option in the game.
But from what some of you have said, you're honourable people and a greatly respect that, and so do the jedi you hunt.
One should always think before they act, would you want someone to come up to you and kill you while you are LD, AFK, PVPing. No you wouldn't. Also think that maybe something happened to like their computer crashed or the had a black out or something eject has called them away from the computer.

ROFL..best response I've seen in ages
I know I'd hate to lose without a fight, but there's only been one occasion in the past 6 months where my systems crashed and I might have fallen victim to a bh.
This person explained her disgust for bounty hunters as a whole because they'd do something like this. Well, she and I had a fight the day prior and when I ran her out of force she suppressed me, got on a bike, and entered a guild hall. I just couldn't catch up on my old pos machine.

I've killed 2 others who weren't at the keyboard but those people mopped the floor with me as I was trying to learn ranged and bh before I caught em snoozin.
Anyway, I know how frustrating it can be to lose a fight on your jedi under cheap circumstances. I had a bh call in a swordsman to help him kill me because I was overt and it ticked me off pretty bad but I never go afk without getting into space, a house, or jumping on a speeder while I hit the bathroom. Heck, I used to offer to let people pay me 200k till people abused it too often.
Am I wrong here? Anyone agree with this lady? I know the majority of the bh's here won't but I thought it'd make for good discussion. If you feel it's wrong tell us why.

it all boils down to this...if you dont kill someone you didnt win. period. there is no "technically", that's garbage. either you kill them or you dont. and if you didnt kill them you didnt win.
bumping post count for i dont know what reason...but its fun
if i'm hanging around afk like a dummy (which i am known to do lol), and you come along and put a bullet in my head, you won.
no sense whining about losing just cuz you don't know how to fight or because you didn't put yourself in a safe spot before heading off to watch tv.. people seriously need to learn how to think.. geez.. i'm not even a bh, i'm jedi and this just irritates me. "i ran out of force" is just another way of saying "you're better at pvp than i am and i need to practice more", or at least thats how i understand it..
Just ignore her and move on to the next Jedi. If you can kill them do so.

I have "handled" several Jedi in my career. It's a game and unless I am really hunting for the cash, I usually let the Jedi live, why not. That is unless he exploits me. Running into a house or guild hall and stuff, after I spent hours looking for him makes me a bit cranky. It's a game, and I have yet to hear of anyone really dying at it. Enjoy
A man died in Asia from playing 50+hrs straight (game unknown), collapsed and died 3hrs later. Yes, from playing a game. Ugh!!
