Please pull jedi from the rebel and imperial factions. Make a factional system that consists of light vs dark jedi. Why is just silly seeing all these imperial jedi for one as there were only two at the time and the like goes for rebel jedi there were only two and of that one died of old age.
This would go a long way to pushing jedi to the less seen and pulls this back closer to movie ideology/mythos. I have absolutely no problem dropping my imperial tags for a DARK jedi symbol by my name. This also fixes the problem of one needing a jedi or multiple jedi most times to defeat any PvP GCW base.
Sure light and dark jedi should be allowed to join in on the GCW but some system must be inplace that puts them at a HUGE disadvantage, say when NPCs from a base are attacked by a jedi, the imperial army or rebel faction send in some serious fire power to attach those player jedi. Yes a jedi can join in but their are HUGE risks and great presitge if you do.
Flame away! LOL. I know that many hate the idea of not being able to use their jedi as the end all be all of SWG.

Yeah i ve always agreed. Take us out of the GCW, that would improve my jedi and non jedi experience in the game.
Here to hoping it ll happen.

Well, I'm agreement with this idea, as I always have been.
Jedi should be there own factions. Jedi should only fight other Jedi (unless through a duel).

i agree too. i want to be a jedi, not a rebel.
though, i think it should be an option to join up in teh gcw for the purposes of doing stuff with non jedi friends and guild pvps and stuff..but i just dont think it should be mandatory.
especially now that dark jedi can be attacked by imperial npcs..whcih means the devs basically said dark jedi arent imperial..but are still imperial hehe...i hope its the first step to removing us

Imperial jedi has always been a stupid thing, why would you align with a faction that is actively trying to kill you?

I don't support this idea. I am not grinding my a$$ off just to join a mini-game within the game. Basically I see this idea as another way of saying "remove Jedi from the game".
If something like this is implemented, it should come with a complete removal of the visibility system and player bounty systemand also a reduction in the xp required to get Jedi Knight. But I still wouldn't support it.

Jedi were never supposed to be a big part of the game, at least in terms of the GCW.
Being a Jedi is meant to be challenging, and something that very few people would have the patience or drive to achieve, which is why the visibility/player bounty system was implemented in the first place.
The original poster made some very good suggestions, though they were all basically a restatement of Gizmo's "vision". If Jedi were brought in line with other professions in terms of damage, versatility, and time required to master, we would have a situation where the entire population of every server would all be Jedi masters in one day, not to mention the fact that if Jedi were made this common, the fundamental appeal and mysticism inherent in the class would be completely ruined.
If Jedi are allowed to participate in the GCW without any downside, as is the current system, the above would have to happen. There are simply no two ways about it. If Jedi are more powerful than a regular profession, and there are no inhibiting factors in playing a Jedi with a finished template, then what is to stop every person from becoming a Jedi?
Even as they currently are, Jedi are ruining PvP (and yes, I am a Jedi). As it stands now, there are more Jedi in any given PvP group than any other class. Does that not seem wrong?
On the other hand, if a Jedi can easily dispatch three or four elite professions with ease (as was the original intention), there is simply NO WAY that Jedi can be allowed to participate in the GCW unrestrained. Personally, I see no reason Jedi should not be allowed to participate in the GCW, and with that having been said, I am also concerned enough about the overall well-being of SWG as an MMORPG to understand that if there is going to be a class such as Jedi, and in order for the Jedi class to remain fun to play, there MUST be restraints put into effect.
You don't want to take part in this mini-game? Then do not choose to be a Jedi.

Yes, I agree completely. Remove us from the Galactic Civil Waror atleast institute a large penalty for participating. I'd be ecstatic if Light/Dark factions were included.
