Wow, great.
MORE Jedi stuff.
This new village will certainly fix everything. Bravo.
How about you fix some stuff before running onto the next quest/poi/adventure stages?
Just a hint.
Generally not a bad idea, but bad timing. Very, very bad timing.

Dont know if this has been said, but I'm not bored enough to read through 26 pages of comments. 
When i first started playing, back last June,I use to talk to NPCs that kinda looked like Jedi. Because, being a silly newb, I didn't know that it was impossible to be one. What about actually making these hermits part of the quest to get to the village of Aurilia. Where you have to do missions for them, dont know what at this sec. Then they tell you the tale of a hidden village, lets say that has a cloaking ability from the Jedi, thats located in a hidden area. The npc then gives u a device that will help channel the force into finding the village for you. I dont know, just the first thing that came to mind.

I'm not sure I understand the whole 'Visit from a stranger' aspect. However, I will say that this in itself
seems to have the potential to be the much needed 'content' that everyone has been asking for.
Sounds like a great step 1. Keep up the good work..

remember, this is a GREAT idea, probably the best to come out of the Devs in a year.
Also remember, the village is in the outer rim, in the meridian sector.
This leaves the only major planet in that area, Lok.
This planet has all three qualifications, Imperial outpost, rebel hideouts, and neutral areas (nyms protectorate).
Its my best guess as to where the village will be, not to mention the sky is very cloudy. The only other planet that would fit a cloudy almost star-less night sky would be Dathomir, but that would be rather incorrect to the storyline.

I love it TH, then again I love the game so much I am extra hard to offend.......I love you Devs thanks for making a great game...one I wont quit not over something or anythign that can eventually be fixed...BRAVO!!! BTW any hints on what is needed to be done to meet this stranger? Is it playing the game as in theme parks? or is playing as in pvp? what part of the game do you focus on for this to occur, this is the only bone I ask to be thrown...I do a bit of all so tell me where to (or not to if i decide against being fs) direct my gaming energies.....

First of this is a great idea. My ideas may be a little late but here it goes.
I think the village idea is awsome, it will add some nifty game content for those seeking jedi and provide a backdrop for unlocking jedi. What i think would be a great idea and also help limit the flow of possible jedi into the village, is if once take to this planet you were cut off from the rest of the gaming world. this would do 2 things
1) it would provide the player with a fun way to play out jedi, on a planet with other jedi, while allowing them study free and clear of BH and grief players
2) it would cut down on the traffic to the planet, because if you had to give up playing with your regular friends and spend most of your time on this planet to become a jedi....in my case anyways i would think twice before i went
My second thought is that of how you are invited to the village, it could perhaps be a timed invitation where after so many hours of play an npc apears for you asking if you would like to join him in traveling to this village
Well there ya have it may not be much help but i think it is a couple good ideas that i think would be fun for incorparating this new village
