I wouldn't, it's fine as is. Somewhat dabble-friendly, powerful in combat.. what's to change?

I guess I can be the first serious poster. I would create a 3rd faction. Smugglers would be worked into this as well as it would be a Hutt faction. BH's would be able to hunt certain smugglers and also hunt players that bounties have been placed on that have to many FP in certain things. IE: You are a reb and you kill imps. If you racked up a certain number of points in a certain time limit, this would place you on the terms under the imp missions. Visa Versa for Imps that hunt reps. Now the 3rd faction would also come in here. If you started killing Jaba swoop pilots or whatever this would also go against the Hutt faction and could place you on the Hutt terms. The huts wouldnt be a true faction in the GCW but would be a smaller faction much like they are already. Hutt missions would have to be obtained from inside Jaba's Palace only though. This would include Smuggler Hunt missions as well. Jedi missions would be excluded from Hutt terminals unles for some reason the Jedi was also a smuggler that screwed up.
Also I would introduce Player Created Bounties. All Terms would be accessible by players and they could place any reward amount you wanted on any player at any time. This would include BH's getting onto the terms. If you hunted a Jedi and he is PO'ed and offers a bounty for you then so be it. You are now a target as well. Since pub20 would hide the names on the terms, this would prevent players from cheating the system. These two additions would be what I would do to change the way the system works. It would make it feel more star warsy by doing these as well since these things were part of the star wars universe.

I can take a full template Jedi, first find him AFK in Ryatt and trail about a zillion wooks to him while he is aoeing and then db him when he is down.

I really like this idea, it would bring a lot more content to a lot of the player base but be avoidable by those that didn't want to be on the terms.
I don't really like the idea of player set bounties though unless the mark has to agree to having a bounty on them before the bounty can be set, it could so very easily lead to griefing even with the no names on the terms

The whole third faction idea was an idea from the devs before JTL even came out......

I'd delete SWG and geta decent company to manage it's creation/maintenance and development. The way it is now the whole game is rubbish which means all professions blow.

take out the jedi bounties and move them to a jedi only server where they can overload sabers, los exploit, afk grind,force run and cloak away until they turn blue in the face. keep two or three jedi that have proven themselves to be non mentally handicapped for the balance, on each server.
introduce smuggler bounties and bh to bh hunting.
