How about rather than Permadeath, After X amount of deaths in a one week span, you can not log in with your character until a week after your final death. And when you do log back in, you start with 1 death and accumulate more over time with safe play, back up to the total of X.
I think that's a little more fair than permanently dying, yet still tough enough to make a Jedi think about when and where he pulls out his lightsaber.

Well If i'm correct this game is currently inbetween esp 3 and eps 4 . Which makes luke anywhere from 1-19 years old and still has yet to meet obi wan
So its not luke that set this up . Most likely a few other survivers . Your right though about having people kill jedi. However it should be the bhs .
My idea is to revamp the bh to jedi lvls .
Make it harder to get . Make it balanced against jedi (once u add on droids ) limit bhs and jedi to 2 per group that way we don't have 6 bhs on a mission to kill 1 jedi and find him alone riding to a jedi camp . Make so if either side looses they loose the exp for thier current boxes . I.e if your at 5k jedi exp you loose that 5k jedi exp . Do the same on the bh side .
Then make it fun . Give awards for x amount of jedi killed or x amount of bhs killed

hmm i watched the movies and if SWG is set between three and four Luke would still be on Tatooine picking his nose and dreaming about flying starships and Ben Kenobi would be in his hutt guiding all of us to FS. But I think SWG is between four and five.

If you listened to NPC text from the old man and when you enter the villiage you'd know who set it up and why.
And to the original poster, would you like to be told "Nope, you can't play for a week".
Personally I don't even want to make an alt character, so who is SoE or you to tell me if something happens I should have to sit around for a week not being able to play?

The game actually takes place between episodes IV and V, but as for your other points, I just think making BH an end-game profession all of a sudden would be just as bad if not worse than the current Jedi problem, because so many people are BH's so to power them up would just make it worse I think.

Perma deaths coming back. The devs stated it a million times. Stop asking for it.
If they were to make it so, they'd have to make jedi super uber to avoid dying.

So you don't think you should have to be at all careful asa Jedi? You don't think it's a problem that there are handfuls of Jedi in Coronet at any given time just flashing their lightsabers around when they are supposed to be either A) Non Existant, or for the sake of the game B) In Hiding?
It all comes down to these two points - Are you a fan of being able to play exactly how you want to play when you want to play it regardless of consequences to the actual plot and story of the Star Wars universe, or do you play this game because you want to feel like you are a part of the very same universe as in the movies, where Jedi are rare or at least don't flaunt their stuff whenever they want to without having to worry about possible consequences?
I'll be a Jedi next phase, and I feel that bringing that extra content to the game would be good in the long run.

the most fair thing they could do is a 3 death thing, If a jedi dies 3 time in 1 day, he should be dead, (or 3 times in 24 hours) that way BH are not so Game ending chars, and if you lose your char you can onlybe madat yourself. you will see the jedi population slowly die off and everyone (besides the noob jedi who die) will be happy. And they should do the idea were vader can hunt jedi down as well. (supposadly a original idea having vader appear and attacking jedi)

Here is a thought........At what point will the era that we are in will actually effect the game on a deeper level, other than just the civil war? Why does The Emperor and Lord Vader let all these Jedi run around unchecked? They purge all the Jedi, then all these pop up in the galaxy due to I guess the private training camp (The Village set up by Luke? ) ,and they don'teven bat an eyelash. I say to the devs: Unleash Lord Vader once again on all of these rogue Jedi. They should be properly trained under a current dark or light side Jedi Master Ie.... Vader or Luke. Oh wait, am I still on topic?

this wont do anything . Everyone will just sign off once they die twice. Load up thier alt . It will just make more jedi as i would just grind my second char to jedi . IT will be easy as i'm already after 2 weeks of playing at 2 million credits. I can buy everything my char needs and just grind it out when my jedi is out
