You cant penalize other players because you took your time to become jedi. thats not fair at all. its not the amount of money, its the time involved in getting it. yeah, i know everyone had different ways of becoming jedi and tbh i am about sick of the complaints of how it was harder back then and so on...it doesnt matter anymore how you got jedi, what matters is that you got it. its not younger players faults that they found inventive ways to grind. the points to attain were pretty much the same from at least what i can remember. besides, do you think soe is going to change their policy from making all coding the same to making coding execptions for players they want out of the game to start with? I see this argument all the time about older players, (which i have tremendous respect for), but you also had more time to accumulate more pearls, more crystals,more wealth,enjoy the frs, and even advance in it. so, unless you are willing to trade off the benifits then no, you need no special treatment...were all on the sinking boat together. we can build walls or we can build life rafts...

That's why I am taking about veteran players.

I hate to break it to you, but if you do the math what you are saying is impossible unless you don't sleep and the studies are very clear on this one, that really isn't good for you.

You have the oppertunity to do with your character everything that ANYONE else has done with their characters, you just choose not to or you choose to do it at a much slower pace. This is your fault not SOE's.









It's not my fault. I would have been a Jedi already if they hadn't changed the system the first time. Also, guess what? Sony like my money just as much as yours and that's what matters to Sony! If they want a viable game, stuff has to be accessible to more than just the hardcore gamers!






No, it is your fault.You've been playing since before Holocrons were introduced and theirfore you had the full 100% of the time to try and use them. What you did with that time is your buisiness. The system was not changed for almost a year, which is plenty of time to grind out even 32 professions if you were unlucky.


It is not accesible to only the hardcore gamer, 2 hours a day is nothing, thats casual. Hardcore gamers don't play 2 hours a day, they play much more then that, and that is their perogitive. Everyone has 24 hours in their day, what you choose to do with them is your buisiness..


Even if only a hardcore gamer could get jedi, guess what? Jedi is the endgame, it's ment to be a challenge for the hardcore gamer. If arent willing to grind our your experience how are you ever going to grind out 32million experience to finish your jedi...or do you want that handed to you aswell?

Is the OP for real or just trolling? I am unsure.

Did you have to work hard at getting your wife to love you and marry you, I know I did. According to your logic, a wife should be free if one throws enough money at them. Your logic of getting a free jedi is severly flawed.





If I have to explain to you the difference between, playing a video game and becoming Jedi, and marrying someone, then you really are confused.I'm saying that they should stopchanging therules, andgive casual veteran player the chance. Really, you're all makingmejust want toquit this thing altogether.

You dont have tobe a hardcore gamer to get jedi even devoting 2 hours a day to it can get u there what i did





2 hours a day! Do you people hear youselves? That's at least 14 hours a week, that would be like a whole Saturday to me! I'm sorry I love my wife too much to say "honey, I can't spend time with you, I'm working for Jedi!" I really don't wan to have to say it, but "get a life" does come to mind.






Six kids, Wife, car payment, mortgage, illnesses, injuries, disasters. Still got Jedi, by casual grinding.


Along your lines of thinking, I should get a 500,000$ house for turning 30, because I worked for 11 years.


I should get a motor coach when the kids leave the house, because I raised all of them.


When I turn 65, I should get $25,000 a month just for being older.


Fact is, everyone has to pay. Not just in SOE terms, but in real life too. If you want something for just being alive, you will get what you put into it. Do I suggest you give up your life to get a Jedi? No, but you may have to give up an afternoon palying golf, or stay off the lake a couple weekends, but then it is all about what you enjoy. If you really want to play a jedi game, there are several out there that allow you to start out as jedi. I think you can even still find the old Starwars RPG books on the net. I even saw a game at walmart with a camera on your tv where you can swing a mini LS and kill bad guys, and it doesn't even take a subscription.


And perish the thought, some people,although against the rules, have been known to subvert the process totally (think about this one a bit).

ive got a solution here. from the first post, he was upset cuz they kept changing the system, and then the subject kind of changed from there. what is they set up something like where your jedi system is how it was when it started. like if u were a hologrinder, when something like patch 10 comes along, letu continue that way, while others who get glowy after that do the village. your holocron would just be a special one that still does the original function.

As far as I care now, they can just give them out to everyone. Pointless waste of time, as everyone and their grandmother has one and they basically suck now. Yes, im bitter...can u tell?
