If you are a casual gamer, maybe you shouldn't be able to get Jedi, maybe this was their attempt to keep you out of Jedi....

LOL I keep seeing this phrase in here, Jedi doesn't sound like much of an accomplishment if you can get it casually.

problem . . . many casual players are veterans of the game . . . players from way before there were any jedi. Are you saying that players that have been active for 2 years don't deserve Jedi purely based on the fact they are only capable of playing 6-10 hours a week? That would mean that they their money isn't worth the same as the power gamer.
Hey I have an idea . . . why don't we pay by the hour . . . that way the power gamers who burn through the day grinding XP pay more for their jedi and seeing how the casual gamer can't get one . . why should they pay the same amountas those who can? It would also make people who want to grind AFK pay for it to . . . wow 2 problems solved!

To the poster who said casual gamers shouldnt be a jedi, why? Why should I as a paying player be denied jedi simply because I have a wife, kids, job, other obligations to contend with. Why should I be denied because I can't put in time like the kiddies on summer break, not old enough, or too lazy to work? I really would like to hear your answer.... I am waiting. This oughta be rich.
ME ME ME!! do you act like that around your kids? You realize that you use the word Isix times in five sentences.I'm not saying that Jedi shouldn't be available to you, if you can find the time to grind it good for you. I am saying that you shouldn't be able to "casually" grind it, well you could it would just take forever. Come on people Jedi is the alpha class grinding it should be a dreaded task that most will not finish because well "they don't have time". Can you imagine Yoda going "we understand you have a wife and kids Obi Wan, you only have to fight half of Grevious then just FR2 out and cloak"
I'm betting you don't really have kids, infact probly not married either, you are far to selfish.

im a 16 year old and play it casually, i am going for jedi and its not hard to casually grind out stuff, an hour here 2 hours there adds up, and because you only have a short amount of time to play it you focus more on that task instead of other distracting things, and just to show that i am concerned about myself more than the game I,I,I,I,I,I,I oh look theres over 7 instances of the word I there
There was no need to state your age and anyone that uses the word instance out of context hangs out on kashyyk far too much. I'm guessing Rryatt, Instance 3 !?
what does it matter who gets jedi? this game has lost its appeal to me with the constant changes and nerfs.......i simply dont feel like adapting anymore. maybe a long break is in order, the endless grind seems like a waste of time with no real adventure quality to it..........anyone else feel the same? i dont care how long till i get a jedi, just make the trip there fun.
i have been to every poi, been everywhere on kash, stuck my toes in most every hole on all the proffered planets, mastered 6 elite proffesionsbefore even thinking about the village quests........not bragging(cause anyone who brags about their time in game obviously hasnt discovered sex yet), just clarifying for those who say, "please go explore first".
so, anyone ever play EVE online?......sounds like a perfect way to waste my time till i poke my head back into the swg door.
