Well, thanks for the compliment. As for my account, I'll be honest. I was thinking e-bay for a while there, but then a few things convinced me otherwise:
1) I hate e-bay Jedi. You want a Jedi, unlock one yourself.
2) I have more respect for the character that I spent two years creating than to just let someone else take over him. Desceron's been my most successful RP character ever, I'd hate to just give him up.
3) As broken as the game is for me right now (due to a glitch I'm equally useless in space since my guns don't work), I do know that on the off chance they actually fix it, I'd be right back in the thick of things, so I'd like my character to still be there if SOE does something right for a change...

no i'm not talking kash, i'm talking getting a group together, i was grinding last nite in a group of 8 there were 4 jedi in the grind group each of them was making in excess of 150k xp an hour. we were at it for 3 hours before the first bher attacked a jedi in the group, who the jedi dispatched with ease.
Your Jedi might be outside what I would consider "Low-level Jedi" who are the ones who are really suffering right now. Once you get some defender and healer on board I hear it's not so bad, but until you do you are dogmeat. Do you, by chance, know their templates?
"Since the CU I have not gained a single point of XP." - O.P.
Lies, you get 1 point of XP even for each grey-con creature you kill.
You should feel comforted though, because I think group members shouldn't give you vis either. I believe it is something SOE will be fixing shortly, but in the meantime there isn't much you can do. Just how I would like some thingsfixed, but in the meantime there is nothing I can do about it but wait.

Group members giving vis is a tough one. It still will result in a LOT more Jedi group grinding on Dant. They need a solution that basically lets a Jedi solo PvE content alone. Exp shouldn't be as fast as a group (grouping should be risky) but it should be possible.
I've suggested a Padawan/Master group where two Jedi can group, one gets 125% exp, the other 75% exp and no visibility but something is needed.
This is where you are wrong. You can solo and you can get jedi exp.. you might have to split some of that exp with med xp or non jedi weapons xp but you can solo. Thelower levelboxesare only 20k xp. You can grind that solo if you do it right, but it will take a while. See the thing is that a level 20 jedi gets much less xp killing level 16 mobs than he would killing level 80 mobs in a group. The Jedi CHOOSES to grind level 80 mobs in a group. What you are saying is that it is impossible to grind to full template in 2-3 weeks WITHOUT EXPLOITING and that is the way it SHOULD be.
