I consider myself one on Bloodfin and I've been nicknamed the SW dictionary by my guild.
Note that it is Jedi, not Jedis
I keep my lightsaber hidden, use a single hilt saber, only blue or green(no sunrider or banes even though I have them and tuned) no robes, but I do have a Jedi typed clothing which I picked out matched for the timeframe we're in. After all its the only fun I really have ingame at the moment hehe

Some fans are so loyal they have even adopted “Jedi” as their official religion on census reports and The Force as their equivalent of a “personal savior.”
In a way, this is kind of bittersweet. It shows that the universal hunger for meaning is still prevalent, even in our agnostic era, which is encouraging; but these true believers will eventually realize that the philosophy behind Star Wars is every bit as sophisticated as the science — in other words, mostly wrong and always silly.
It’s one thing to put your faith in a religion founded by a real person who claimed divine revelation, but it’s something else entirely to have, as the scripture of your religion, a storyline that you know was made up by a very nonprophetic human being.
How Does the Force Stack Up As a Religion?
As a religion, the Force is just the sort of thing you’d expect a liberal-minded teenage kid to invent. There’s no God and there are no rules other than a vague insistence on unselfishness and oath-keeping. Power comes from the sum of all life in the universe, and it is manichaean, not Christian — evil is simply another way of using the Force. Only not as nice.
