To All Jedi,


Baciacca has been getting some criticism of late. I'm not posting this to say if the criticism is justified or not, but as way to help the community out so we know what's been going on with our coro and the issues he's been posting about.Baciacca has been posting and he is active (with all 3 of his Jedi). I'll do my best to keep things short and on topic.


1. Reference a new chief drink that modifies speed on how it will affect force run:


Awaiting clarification before he is willing to comment.


2. Authored a thread on Enhancer Testing on TC vs. NPC Power Users


Enhancers should read this thread as bugs in TC frequently make it into live.

http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=jedi&message.id=1263575#M1263575


3. Robes and Force Regen in TC (Pub 24)


Force Regen seems to be fixed in Pub 24 TC


4. Responding to a question on the snare changes and how it affects force run.


Actively encouraging the community to be vocal about changes so he has information to show the development team on how it affects the community.


5. Responding to a reason he hasn't kept this forum informed.


Doesn't feel its appropriate to comment on issues still on TC outside the intended forum.


6. Responding to a question about why there is not Top 10 list of concerns at the moment.


Feels strongly it is a waste of engery and time until the new expansion is live because the Dev's are soley focused on the expansion. Will get things rolling

once the expansion is live.


7. On Jedi house sitting and the BH forums suggestions for fixing what they see as a major issue.


Actually Baciacca doesn't take a stance on the issue, other than to praise the BH coro for clearing up an issue that would force Jedi out of their private

structures. The BH coro said that would never happen to the BH community and look for other options.


8. On the FRS being seen on TC and ToW.


The system on both TC and ToW is the old system and will not be carried over to live.


9. Responding to the rise of BH's finding away around the 1 v 1 bounty design and beginning to gank Jedi with multiple BH attacks.


Asks the community for a detailed, step by step, procedure on how this is being done (real testing .. not rumors) so he can take it to the developers.


10. Responding to the problem with Visbility campers.


Recommends reporting them for griefing since it falls under the EULA and is reportable.


11. Agreeing some changes need to be made for making PvP more enjoyable.


http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=jedi&message.id=1240455&view=by_date_ascending&page=1


12. Responding to a question about negative XP.


Appears to be 10 million for those not ranked as masters in the old FRS

Appears to be 12 million for those ranked as Masters in the old FRS

Is doing some additional research.


13. Responding to concerns the Pre-CU jedi will loose their flawless / prem pearls / crystals


They get to keep them ... Period!


This is just Baciacc's activity over the last few weeks. I hope it helps.

as far as the bh ganks go, why not just put names back on the terms and allow only one bounty hunter to have the mission at the same time, decays after 3 days..


or an alternate idea..just change it so that one bh can have the mission at the same time with the current system on the terminals.

Bacc does not deserve any of the blame for the current situation. Remember that the corros serve no other purpose but to give the player community the PERCEPTION that we have a voice. They have NO actual input into the changes.


I think that ALL Jedi Corros deserve a round of applause, whether past or present. Please remember that Jedi is a profession that has gone from the pinnacle to the grave. No matter which Corro you speak of, Jedi has suffered under their watch. No matter which Corro you speak of, it has not been their fault.


Please, stop blaming your Corros. It is an unpaid position. It is underappreciated. It isn't easy.

If he's doing his job, cool. Question is, why are we having this debate? Is it perhaps that he's not communicating enough? I mean why are YOU posting this thread and not him? Ever heard the saying there's no smoke without fire?


I've been a manager, and in a sence, our Cor is a manager too. I know Managers take flack when things go wrong, but the most important job they must do is communicate with their staff.


The BH corr is spending all his energy in trying to get a fix on AFK house JEdi FFS!!!!! What does that tell you? The BH Corr is jumping up and down about Jedi who happen to be away from keyboard while our Cor is posting about things we all ready know.


If he's doing his Job, he needs to be communicating that to us. Otherwise, questions will be asked, and not answered and people will start to lose faith.

Our Corro's post count goes up drastically without seeing posts here. It would appear that most of his efforts would be in the Dev forums? I'd personally love to see the AFK house change go through. Can anyone else see SWG go downhill any faster? That would be the most ludicrous move EVER.

I'd personally like to see the AFK Jedi house thing go through too, but certainly NOT before the Jedi bugs are fixed that have been on going now for months. If the devs can fix CM dots in 24 hours, they sure as hell can fix Jedi speed. THESE are the things the Jedi Community want sorted by our Cor. We want to see what HE's doing to sort the fact these fixes are so out of date, and we want to see the answer the Devs give him. If he can prove the Devs palm him off at every corner, we'll turn our agression and frustration towards the devs and pull our Cor along for the ride. At the moment, we're getting no answers at all and our Cor is not posting enough info

9. - It has been posted numerous times as to how to do it on the BH boards. There is no long drawn out trick to it. It is almost as easy as the old way when there was names. If he has not seen these, then he hasnt looked hard enough. Not to mention the Moderators delete the threads right away whenever they get posted, so I think they feel its not cool to do. Baciacca can shoot me a PM and I will inform him how it is done, so this thread insnt deleted, and the e-tards dont take advantage. (tested it numerous times, and it works, rather unfortunate and poor coding I might add)


10. - The CSRs have not done a thing about anyone being reported. I have seen some nasty people exploiting this game since day one. They are still in the game and have been reported hundreds of times. But that is a CS issue this game seriously needs to get a grip on. (I personally think they dont ban because they dont want the loss of customers, unfotunately it isnt helathy in the game and scares off new customers)


11. - If you can only cap at 4 million possitive as a double full temp Jedi, how is it remotely logical to fall in such a negative XP pool? Actually how is it even logical Jedi are still hunted and lose XP with the 'nerfed into normality' that is going on?!

Seems like this helped open up the discussion on issues a bit.

As one of bac/guaarr's guild members I can assure you there is no one I would rather have as the coro for my profession. His knowledge of thethe jedi professionand the thorough testing he does is amazing.
