Well, congrats to all who have acquired glowy status.
But in my current situation, all of these so called verified and confirmed ways to getting glowy have been unfortunately proved wrong.
Here's my qualifications: (Plz tell me how this doesn't qualify me for glowing status)
9 master professions (was on silent holo)
All poi's
4 theme parks: Nym, Imp, Jabba, Marauder (unofficial theme park, but did it anyway)
5 corvette badges: 3 imp, 2 jabba
2 warren badges
Mark of the Hero
all 3 race track badges
Total: about 83 or 84 badges
Force status prior to patch10(confirmed on TC: Bria clone): Strong sense in the force
Force status after patch 10: faint sense in the force
So i was actually demoted in my force status.
So if anybody can throw out some ideas as to why or how this does not qualify my char. for glowing status, plz do. It will be greatly appreciated since CSR's have told me that they cannot help me.

The way glowy works is this.
Depending on how many professions you mastered, decides if you are one of the 1-4 "Glowy" states.
If you barely mastered any professions you should be #1 or #2, if you mastered quite a few you will be #3 or #4, and you will stay there until you glow. You will never go from a underglowy to another underglowy.
I am not sure this is true either. When publish 10 went live I had the following.
Numerous difficult POI's (Krayt graveyard, Tusken pool, etc....)
Various Jedi POI's (Ben's hut, Jedi Temple, etc..)
Minimal content (Completed Jaba's themepark, Theed Librarian, that is it!)
Mastered professions= 2 Artisan and Merchant (Thrilling, I know)
Point is when pub. 10 went live I was surging. Have since completed Nym's, 1 Warren Badge, and finishing Rebel themepark currently. Still surging.

Yep...I am glowing now.
It looks like you ABSOLUTELY need all5 of the content badges...no substitutions
(at least I did)

I went surging after only doing a few poi's...seems that the ruined temple on dant is a big one.
I have lots of the "alternatives" to the content badges, but I am still only surging ( i have 1 more content badge to go)...so it looks like either the alternatives are not alternatives or there may be differentpaths for different players.
I'll post back after I complete warren 2 (of course, if someone else isn't looting it already)...

I followed this guide completely. I started out with only 1 elite profession mastered. It worked exactly as stated. Just waiting to get attacked by the Sith now. Took two days for the old guy to come find me.

Ok according to this guide all i need is Jabba's and Nym's themeparks....slight problem ehe...i have really high negative Nym and Jabba faction points and from what i understand i have to kill one to get positive in the other...so is there any way to do it without building up even more negative faction points on one of them?
Please help.

kill valarians to get jabba cartion standing, best place to go is near the lucky despot in eisley, kill loot respawn, repeat. takes about 30 mins to get a good faction standing from -5000.
then go to lok and kill rival pirates for nym faction standing.
