None of us should have the i'm better than your POV.

We waste countless hours playing a video game. We are all pathetic losers in the end.

The grind is the whole point, the fact that someone can just come in and be a jedi that took alot of effort to be just months earlier because the DEV's feel like it with no real testing and no input from the community tell volumes about the loyality rewards and SOE's mind set.


You are a player with no understanding of the dedication to this game. Note...i am not degrading you i am merely stating that SWG was not your main hobby, well it is mine and i deserve compensation for their mistake. I am in the majority on this i am sure so you should walk a bit in our shoes.

I agree with you completely... alot of jedi seem to think there better because they sat and grinded for 6months... rather then me who might of PvPed.. or helped out the community as a whole...


I'll tell my story though...


--

Backin April.. 2004 i believe.. my close friend wanted to be a jedi... so she started grinding profession after profession.. first the combat ones.. then crafting... rather then doing something else I decided to help her grind through every profession I could.. by tanking (was TKA/Rifleman) and grabbing two extra missions... to try and speed up her grind... when she finished all of them minus BH... she started crafting... while i couldnt exactly help her.. i chose to sit with her and talk.. keep her company.. so it wouldnt be soo boring...


and after a long grind of professions.. she unlocked on i think 25ish... and it was Chef.. I was happy for her...


Now the real grind started... We knew about Visability and such... but chose to stay together anyway.. and we did the same as before.. i grabbed missions... tanked for her.. while she killed... I did this about 90% of her grind... through the jedi profession...


She finally finished after a slow year.. since her computer was acting up... and shewent on a trip... but in about a year she was done...

--


I have basically more or less.. grinded through jedi.. and by all means could of been a jedi by now.. 10x over.. but since i didnt want to be some uber PvPer.. plus at the time... Jedi wasnt the real Alpha class... Dots were the deciding factormore.. so i didnt feel the need to grind it as much...


But then the CU comes in... and decides to change everything.. basically there were 3-4 viable combat templates... the others were just support or fodder... Now I wish i did grind through jedi and devote half a year of my life to it.. but oh well..


Now with everyone being toned down to be equal.. i couldnt be happier.. finally skill (plus maybe a little lag) will be what decides who wins..


...

Actually SWG is one of my main hobbies and stating that it isn't when you don't know is degrading me.And i have understanding of the edication to this game I have played everyday since I my account was started except when I was changing isp,and considering i've become a jedi and have a full crafter alt and have grind 3of my friends characters for them don't say that I have no understanding of the dedication to this game and we rae getting some compensation for having grinded so stop being so self pitying. And I have walked a bit in your shoes I AM A JEDI.I AM GOING THROUGH THE SAME CHANGE AS YOU.I PUT JUST AS MUCH EFFORT AS YOU DID INTO BECOMING A JEDI,but I did not complain about the changes only about the absolutely moronic opinions hel by some of the games "jedi"

I dont agree with the bullying, just trying to make it clear why passions run high. Respect is something that is gained. I personally respect every Jedi who did the grind no matter what stage they did it. I wont however have any respect for a respec Jedi. That's just life, not saying I will treat them badly, just cant respect them. But I've also lost all respect for LA and SOE, hence the reason I've quit.


And to the guy who said we're all losers because we play these games.


SPOT ON!

Sorry, but it was my dedication to the PRE-CU grind that made me a superior player and entitled me to be a jedi. I unlocked in March after playing the game for over 1 year and doing both the holo grind and the village. That kind of dedication kept jedi rare, and the number of jedi was only going to increase as the natural progession of the game continued. No problem because they all would still put in the same effort. There were never too many jedi pre-cu, it was difficult to grind, unless you found the exploited spots...


I had many freinds that could not, or would not grind with me during my grind. It was a choice I made to make jedi my goal and I worked for it. I didn't respec into jedi, I missed all of the 2x xp weeks when I was still finishing my template. Imagine that, it took about 5 months for me to get where I was pre-cu and then, I finished in about 2 weeks post-cu....


When the players that have been on these boards telling us that they hate jedi as a profession and actually /spit on my character in game for having a lightsaber respec to jedi, I get upset with that.


If you were lazy before the NGE you could have a jedi too, its called EBAY and we do not respect them at all. Being an EBAY jedi is the cardinal sin among us, being a respec jedi is just as bad. EBAY jedi feel free to retort and expose yourself.


It is anyone's right to play a jedi now, but respec must be earned. Until that point, we will not be equal.

Agreed, PPL that were not jedi before this new *upgrade* should not be able to simply respec to jedi. I think , that if they want to be jedi they should start from scratch, just like we did. BTW took me 9 months to full template, I think its not fair that players that just grinded a toon in 2 or 3 days to reach level 80 should be allowed to respec to jedi.
