The people not effected are the power gamers who either arre already a Jedi and have been so a long time or have so much exp banked it wont effect them. Power gamers will find a way around this they always do.
It is very odd that they would choose to move the goal posts now after all their resent efforts in marketing have featured Jedi so much.
Dude, buy a spellchecker.

Why might I ask ? There is no point any more in combat XP, since you can store more regular Xp than combat. This will slow grind so much that it will be almost impossible to get FS xp.
That's kinda the point IMO. There are new jedi springing up by the dozens every day. And all they do is go to the trail and afk grind 2 or 3 mil xp a day in a group.
Last night I unlocked Ranged Defence, my second unlock (yeah I was Pre-CU FS... you can see how lazy I was) and I have already finished the Melee Speed grind, but now I have to grind again, and by the time I finish with that (depends how fast I go) this might already be implemented and the remaining 4 that I have to do will be longer. When I grind I can usually get tons of xp, but I have other things to do in-game... I got a guild to help, and I like to help the people in the guild. I want to grind out an ATST (heh, but now they really aren't cheap on my galaxy) and with this new change it will keep people like me from doing other things in the game. I want to experience all that I PAYED for. I feel, if I don't experience it, then it's a waste of money. Hey, I even tryed to solo DWB (just for some laughs) because I never was there before. It's times like those that make me feel like I am in the Star Wars universe and that is why I bought this game. I like driving around to places... heck, I've been to the Emperor's Retreat so many times..... I've been to Exar Kun's Temple twice, and it makes me even more mad at rebs for having control of it 
I think if all else fails, if they can't decide what to do, the devs should just keep things the way they are. I don't care if Jedi are running around everywhere... it doesn't bother me. It usually only bothers the people who want this to be like the movies. Well, we are in between two movies, and we were never told what happened in between those movies. There might have been Jedi running around and then when Episode 5 came around they were all dead again (however unlikely this may sound......) I really don't know. It's a sad fact for some: but jedi will not be taken away or limited in this game. Perhaps you should read what it says on theSWG box ". . . whether you become a bounty hunter or a dancer or a merchant or even a Jedi." I don't want Jedi limited, I want the path to be easier, yes, but i don't mind where it's at now. If it got harder I'd be mad, and I'd seriously start contemplating moving to another MMO if they screw up again.

no it's 300:1
combat exp is 1/10 of weapon exp
I hope they see this is going over like a fart in church..not cool.
I'd rather see them working on more content. I don't recall ever hearing anyone complain about the XP conversion, but you always hear about more content.
In customer relations you make the customer happy, but all they do is piss people off. There is plenty of things that need to be fixed and tons of content that could be added, yet they only focus on nerfing this and nerfing that.
If you want to make it harder for players to become Jedi, then make it harder to become glowy. I opened a new account 2 weeks ago and I'm already going through the village. I think the Village is fine the way it is. Don't fix what isn't broke, spend the time fixing things that are broke.
