hes right. look at my reg date. im a jedi also. and in this conversion, lets add up how much i paid and did compared to your date. If the tabels were turned, you can honestly say, he paid hundreds less, but its cool.


If u paid one mil for a homeand someone else got the same design for "fiddy bucks" you be COMPLETELY happy and not in the least bit irritated?


Hell man, theres not even an FRS to show our skill for playing all this time to even get bonuses for being adept at what we can do..

I hate to say it, but forum registration date doesn't mean anything. I started playing this game in November 2003, but if you look at my forum date, I never started coming to the forums until after that, was too busy playing the game.

You, like most people, dont even understand the word your trying to give us the definition of. A veteran can mean in time OR experience. Those are DIFFERENT things, but EITHER one, can make someone a veteran. A person could have started playing a launch, but only been able to play a couple hours a day, while another person could have started a few months later but played a couple hours EVERY day, and they would BOTH be veterans because it can mean time(the player whos been playing longer) OR experience(the player who actualy plays the game more).


Some who only started playing a couple MONTHS ago can already be a veteran of the game if they have played the game every single day for several hours a day, because doing so would have given them alot of experience, which is only gained by playing, not by how long your account has been active. That is the reason you cannot use some time limit to decide who is or who isnt a veteran; because definition of the word veteran says you can be one by how long youve been doing something OR how much youve done of it.

Which is why I said make it at least jedi who are CL80 at the time of the new system... then they would have the experience, or did you skip that part of my post?

How about a pre pub 9 former Jedi master in the FRS that is in the middle of changing his temp?

Ya 1 year jedi = half temp 2 week old jedi. Make them all Elder and expect people to think that makes sense? It doesnt and screw anyone who says it does.


Oh and btw knight trials means nothing. Many full template jedi, roughly 50% refused to enter knight trials because it was full with sploiters.

What kills me is that the same people who actually want newb Jedi to get elder status and perks will probably say "Oh well shut up" to the jedi who unlock just one day after the new system goes live. So somehow the Nov 14th padawan deserves the title, and the FS grinder who has to use the new system gets the real shaft. LOL I think there is a wicked double standard with that logic. It's easily resolved by sticking to the standard of starting Knight Trials. That way real veteran jedi are acknowledged and not just grouped in with someone that really is no different than the Nov 15th Jedi.

If he's dumb enough to drop all of his skills and fall from CL80 while changing his temp, then he deserves to be a non veteran, cause he probably bought his ebay on jedi. Most people who change there temp, max out their jedi xp, then drop one row and train another, one row at a time. And yes I have grinded from a dual master template, to a dabbler one, then back to a dual master.
