Your logic is flawed...

What if I said:

"I put my Artisan tag on while I was overt so that hopefully some imperial overts would think I was no threat and probably just leave me alone or go pick on another "more dangerous" overt person nearby.... then when he turned his back on me, I whipped out my stun baton and walloped him to death easily cus I am a master fencer."

That would be seen as a clever ploy used to trick the enemy.... so what's the difference? If he examined me he would have seen this:

Has mastered TK

Has mastered Carbineer

Has mastered combat medic

Has mastered medic

Has mastered Weaponsmith

Has mastered Brawler

Has mastered pistoleer

If he took a quick second to examine his foe he would have realized I likely still had some significant combat skills left over despite being a weaponsmith (which I do). He made a terrible error in judgment by showing mercy to someone he is at war with...

So.. are you telling me that if you see someone running around overt near coronet but his tag says "Novice Medic" that you wouldn't attack him?

What if a Jedi Padawan is out on Dath killing rancors or something... no players in sight for hours... suddenly, a blip comes up nearby on the radar of another player... the jedi targets him and sees: "Oh.. whew, it's not a bounty hunter... his profession says Novice Chef... I'm safe, I can turn my back to him and go attack those 2 rancors now while he stands 10 feet away from me, cus there's no chance he is a bounty hunter.. his tag says he's a chef."

Are you aware thata "Novice Medic" could very well in fact bea Master TK or Master fencer??

Profession tags mean nothing - if you see someone overt, dont gamble - take himdown and don'tturn your back to him.

Don't misplace stupidy with "honor" with this dark jedi knight.. it was downright dumb of him to "spare" me. If he was smart he would've examined me and saw that I had many mastered combat professions under my belt.... if he were smarter, he would've killed me right away regardless jusrt because I was an overt rebel.

I expect no quarter from my enemy, nor shall I give it.

I am not saying that it might not have been an error in judgement on his part because it obviously was. All I am saying is that if you were roleplaying the enemy you would have attacked him as well, but didnt because you know you would have at least had some trouble. You played the oportunist, which happens a lot in the GCW. I dont begrudge you about it or anything, just saying kicking a man while he is down is nothing to brag about.

In my opinion it would have been better to put more emphasis on the grenade damaging him part instead of the beating down a Jedi that decided not to fight at the time. That's all I was saying.

Uh huh... so.. let me get this straight.... the imperials and rebels are at war.... yet .. for some reason... you seem to think it's unfair for me to kill an imperial?

Well damn... I guess in World War 2 all those American troops that fought the nazis are sons of b1thces cus it wasn't nice of them to kill their enemy... I mean, they should have sat down with the nazi machine gunners and panzer tank commanders over biscuits and tea .. right? Cus that's what happens in war... right?

He was stupid for not killing me.... Rebels and Imperials are at war... kill or be killed. The fact I killed him was a sheer shock to me... I did it to goad him into killing me so I would lose my overt status... I was shocked to see he died instead.

Perhaps you need to pick up a dictionary and re-familiarize yourself with the word... WAR.

Okay, lets do look at what war means for a moment.

War

Hmmm.... I didn't make this one up, so it seems that even in war there are delimiting factors in what can or should take place. Of course, that does state competent military authority, of which you are not a member.

Here is another one you probably aren't familiar with:

a·troc·i·ty

1. Appalling or atrocious condition, quality, or behavior; monstrousness.


2. An appalling or atrocious act, situation, or object, especially an act of unusual or illegal cruelty inflicted by an armed force on civilians or prisoners.
   

Apparently your Dark Jedi knows much more about war than you.

Now, I could continue on with the definitions here, and we could examine warfare and personal integrity and honor for a great deal of time, but I think since you were the one who suggested that we go out and study warfare, that you should be the one to study it first.

And one more thought: fooling your opponent into a sense of false security and then bombing them is not warfare, it is terrorism.
