People were complaining about jedi population control and now they finally found a way - simply turn off the way for people to become jedi - that simple!I know many people have spoken about this in the past, but never really thought that the day would come to pass. The glowy system is actually not working. What do you all think about this post? Wonder how long until it is fixed, or perhaps will end up like the crystal situation along with FRS - they may give it 6 months to a year.
Huh, well with any luck it'll stay that way for a while.

Wont stay that way for long.
It's like a train station with a broken railway... a money making machine without electricity...
Shouldnt be a secret to people that Jedi are SoE's prime product.

They're far from SOE's prime product. However, they're SWG's prime product.

Again, I think they are doing their best to significantly reduce Jedi numbers. Nerfing like crazy, the 'supposed' nerf of the FS system, which I think is intentional. Keep in mind the long talked about, inactive account purge is around the time they said it would go into effect. I think with the mass exodus from pub 24, they are trying to get rid of as many as they can, then character purge so they can't come back. I believe with the concentration on revamps of other classes, they are fed up with Jedi. I think their new goal is the GCW and getting everyone else involved.

If they got the GCW into working order ( I mean hardcore involved galactic war of great depth) Then i wouldn't mind if jedi was left on the back burner. I got one, its my main char,I still enjoy jedi (even in its nerfed to oblivion state), but I would really love a game where i can seriously put my commando wookie to work trashing people in PvP. Most people can never find PvP on their servers or a reason to PvP.
The GCW is SWGs only hope IMO. SOE needs to focus hardcore on that really bad, even if ittakes an expansion or two to pull off.

maybe they should put it on hold until they fix the jedi stuff:
FS people can complain, but the jedi have been without the FRS for months now, so they'll get over it...actually, they probably wont, but they'll manage like the jedi have with the frs...

Fixing glowie is easier than implementing a new system from scratch.
While waiting for another system to be added you have 2 expansions to play. Enjoy!

And apparently shutting it off is even easier at this point.
Something is up. No idea if its good or bad, but something is going on.

if you bothered to read the post youd find out Tiggs is working to fix the problem with ppl not being glowy to reattain it, since ppl in middle of fs grind are now zero-glow.
IT IS NOT about removing it so stop the bs rumor mill here.
O RLY?
Yeah they're working on the FRS & the Pearl situation too. And how long will it be until THOSE are fixed?
My guess is this was intentional, just like the pearl/crystal (bug) turned out to be intentional by the developers.
The broken glowie system was also intentional me thinks.
You're supposed to answer "YA RLY" you forum n00b.
You tool, that's for retards from shadowfire.

Considering the abuse it was probably best that way. All FRS mods where made obsolete post-cu anyway, and there where actually a major amount of Jedi officially requesting the FRS to be shut down once we learned how broken it was.

I would have loved to do the Knight Trials though.

As to the Knight Trials, Dark anyhow...
well at that point getting to certain NPC's to actually kill them was rather difficult but after all the grinding death and etc the 2nd best thing besides unlocking I have done in SWG was put on my knight robes, and play 24/7 overt......
I also got ganked within 10 minutes of putting those robes on btw........good fun nonetheless
