I think xp loss should be removed. At the moment it doesn't really stop anyone from becoming a full-temp. It might stop us for a few more days, it might annoy us, but it doesn't slow us really down. If there was no risk of xp loss, all jedi would stay and fight with a BH, they wouldn't cry for nerfs. The problem is that the system could be abused

Negative xp is not to slow down jedi is to avoid jedi using their alternate bh to get easy money killing his own jedi character. That's why it was added long time ago by SOE.

And like I said, removal of Jedi names SHOULD in theory make BH/Jedi friendship killings either impossible or simply not worth the effort. Probably every single fully temp jedi would be on those terminals and if you did find your friend, it would probably be after at least 2 hours worth of searching.

i agree that xp cap should be removed or doubled, but no way remove exp loss, they shouldnt have dropped xp loss from dying to beasts and mobs imo. xp gain is rediculously easy now. yes i will get flamed but tbh i couldnt give a monkeys right knacker

This is a decent idea. I would just like to their be no negitive xp, so you can only loose xp down to 0 and thats it.

Fugitron, I honestly don't see the benefit in your proposal. If the positive cap were 10 million, someone could retrain a huge chunk of their template all at once. If this wasever implemented, you would see Jedi 'respeccing' their template any time they needed a new skill. It's not that it's a bad idea, it's just plays too fast and loose with skills, IMHO.
I would think a negative cap of -4 million would be more balancing.
Just my humble opinion on that.

Negative exp loss should cap at 0

Well I think making the Positive cap 10 million is a bit over the top. However the idea does have merits. I think a more reasonable number would be to make the Positive Exp Cap Double the amout of exp to Learn a master box ( 3 Million? been such a long time since Ive completed my template I'll have to check ) at double the payout of a full template 225K equal to 450K loss this would give you 14 deaths by a BH before hitting the negatives. I think if by death 14 you havent figured out how to play your template or know when to cut your losses and run then you deserve that Negative Exp.
