TBH i think jedi should at least put up a fight, if they are (as they claim to be) then let us see this power, instead of running get the fight over and done with. Its alot more fun
TBH I think its fun to fight when I want to, not when I get interrupted doing something else by a BH, and before you say it, yes I know Jedi accept the fact that they will be hunted, thats the key thing really. We accept being hunted, but that doesn't mean we have to fight.

what about this... a jedi wont be able to show up on terms if being in a privatehouse for more than 20 minutes (and his time on being on the terms pauses, eg if it takes 3 days to get off the terms -that timer stops and will continue when he is active again)? when he walks out he will immediately get back on the terms.
i like this idea, jedi can sit afk in their houses all days if they want, the only reason disagreeing would be "no then we cant bug BHs"
comments?

Wazooka : I like that idea. Then jedi wont benefit anything of househiding and it wont annoy BHs either. Good one.
I think most of the upset jedi people here thinks so too. No use of that large amount of AFK househiders on the terms as it is today. Better to have moved of the terms while they hide/dance/craft/guildchat and then back when thyer done.
And give us a NPC mission slot extra!

Hang on a second Jargal, first you say "its the jedi fault for getting vis" then you say "im gonna hang around a jedi group and give them some vis", you have just contradicted yourself. (also any devs reading, he has just admited to/ his intent to harrass other players).

There's two thing that should have been adjusted long time ago, right after the BH terms got nerfed.
Since we BHs has accepted the fact that we cant know a thing about our marks when we go out for a hunt, jedi should have to accept two things, as a compromise.
The first thing is househiding. Theres not a single good thing coming out of this feature, only BH annoyance. This even increases the BH-jedi hate. Jedi doesnt get a single xp or any other benefits other than annoying all BHs coming to a house where a jedi sits AFK for hours and hours.
A BH lockpick, made bysmugglers would let the BH inside the house after a 30 sec timer and an possible alarm setting off. This would give the jedi a fair amount of time to prepare for the fight and the BH wouldnt have an other gamebreaking mission. A fair fight for both.
The second is a natural result of the thing above. The spacehiding. If we fix househiding then spacehiding would be fixed at the same time. BH should be able to fire at a jedis ship and force it to emergencyland on the closest planet if 'blow up'. Of course the jedi should have the possibility to jump to hyperspace when attacked to get away. When the jedi has crashlanded on the closest planet, the BH should be able to track him there as usual.
This two imporvments should make jedi more hunted of course, but being hunted of all the galaxy's BHs should be a nightmare. All online jedi that are wanted should be huntable. Theres no good in having house/space hiding...make jedis avalible for BHs to hunt now.
Today BHs spend hour after hours doing the same thing...ending up frustrated outside a jedis house while he is AFK dancing inside. That doesnt improve this games publicity.
I want to see a more alive jedi-BH pvp.
The BH Jedi content is PvP being forced on the Jedi. Many Jedi choose not to participate. Just like your NPCs spawn in places you can't kill them, the Jedi missions work the same way. If you find someone who does it you don't take their mission.
Bounty Hunter is SUPPOSED to mean Elite Assassin not crying retard. Act like an assassin and stop crying.

in several postsJargal has contradicted him/herself, they have also stated a couple of times their intention to grief and harass.
Another point is I have not seen a thread before where BH's and Jedi agreed with each other, I think this could be an important step forward in BH/Jedi relations, now all we need to do is find more 'tards like Jargal to bring us all together as that is all his post is doing at the moment.

Until there are proprtincentives for Jedi beating BH, Jedi will run and they will hide. The only alternaitive you have is to make their life completly and utterly miserable for 3 days. They'll crack soon enough!

please continue to do this. you make my point much better than i ever could.
idiots like this are why forced pvp will go away.
bh attracts ppl who get off making others game play suck. not all, but it attracts that type. in the long run, it's just unhealthy for the game. and for everyone of those types that leaves when forced pvp is gone, the game will be 1 small step better.

Lol. Well excuse me for not having the attention span of a goldfish.Jedi know what they're getting into when they unlock and by the same token I know what I am getting into when I hunt a Jedi. Do I whine when they cloak or Force Run away? No I don't.What I do with my game time is up to me and if I want to spend it tracking my mark over the course of a few days, rather than a few minutes that is MY choice. I don't grief and I don't send hate tells but wish I could say the same for some of the Jedi who've I've met.
Why do I do this? There was a thread on the Jedi forums I saw. Basically the poster was saying that the best way to deal with a BH is to run/cloak straight away because the BH won't want to camp a house or follow you around the galaxy for hours on end. You'll get a reputation as a runner/hider and when that BH gets your mission again, he'll more than likely just drop it. And he's exactly right, that used to put me off until I saw the post. Now I do whatever it takes. If I have to let him know that I'll be having his mission for 3 days until he decides to fight, so be it. If I have to camp his house, so be it. If I have to put up with abuse from his and his friends whilst doing this, so be it.
Don't think that you know me. I don't get off on making other people's gameplay suck as you put it. I do my job, and I do it well.

Abig part of jedi players enjoy annoying BHs with house/spacehiding and thats whats unhealthy for this game. The jedi overpopualtion is unhealthy for this game. I have sen it rip apart guilds, player towns, the GCW causing unbalance to the game.
If jedis keep annoying BHs they will respond to that. One way is to use vis attacks against jedi groups that grind openly close to big cities or outposts.
We all know one of the major features with being jedi is getting hunted by BHs and that wont go away. It's better to live by the rules, not annoying, not cheating and take the fights as a good sport. But if we keep ending up with players that deliberatly annoyes and ruins the game for us, then BHs will start usingannoying methods back at the annoyers. It's a sad and unhealthy spin to it, which I can guarantee none of us wants to experiance.
So, logoff if you arent playing. Be a good sport.
