You people just dont get it. He's not saying we're better. He's explaining what we had to go through. WE ARE NOT BETTER. The profession grind to me was fun. Waiting after everyone i mastered to see if i got the message. Strategising which profs to do in which order. I met so many cool people doing different professions that i would have never met otherwise. One thing i must point out is the GRIND of jedi itself was Long, Hard and boring. BUT.....it was thrilling at the same time....being one of the few.....grinding in secret because anyone could come along and gank you with saber tef. Perma death and the loss of skill later made you be more on edge and more careful.

I could go on and on. This is NOT elitist thinking. Its the way it was. They should have never changed it IMO. I am in no way saying im better or deserve anything . Only thing i wish all you people would do is acknowledge that it was as the original poster said. Not "oh it wasnt hard all you did was this and this" You have no idea what it was....you didnt do it.

I dont know why im even trying to explain this because some of you still wont get it. Or even read what im actually saying. For whatever reason the bad feelings will still cloud your thoughts.

All i can say is neener neener i got to play jedi guardian when it was COOL!!!!

Hehe i have gotten great pleasure past few days reading forums.Like every 5 min a new whiner cries on forums"This is not fair!!".No its not,agreed.I will be one of the paddys who Nov 14th will be 1 box paddy,then the 15th i will be full temp jedi,rediculous i know.lets set a few things straight a lot of you jedis seem bit confused about.For 1 most of u jedi are FS noobs anyways,never once did a holo grind u know why?You werent even playing game.

Only jedis that even have a right to say anything is Pre Pub 9 jedi they did it the hard way.Yes you noobie jedi the hard way,a way u dont know with your lil FS grind.Gonna take u on a trip back in time when being a jedi really was something>Day game launched well was fun bestine had 100's of people,anchorhead had roughly same,We were all noobies in awe of the game itself.First of all first few days there was no armor,there were no WS weapons,no vehicles,and really very little info on how to do anything except for the scraps beta players posted on forums.Jedi wasnt even at the time known how to unlock,much less even a goal for anytime soon.Couple weeks passed Armor started hitting the bazzar(Bone armor at that),WS started making the low lvl weapons,game was advancing fast.mind u lvling was SLOW for any proff.for one we had no mounts nothing so everything was by foot every mission,every hunt was slow.The bone armor sucked the WS weapons were horrible ,man it was rough.

Then things started changing,at that time anyone could control any kind of pet was no lvl restrictions,so most got there lil rancors and grawls and lvling became a bit more fast.All of the sudden people were starting to wonder how do i become jedi?Then the holo quests started to surface,and man did the game change then.You havent seen anything till one day the badest mofo on server has Anchorhead locked down solo,then the next day he is dancing in catina with the entertainers cause "the holo told them to".And let me tell ya grinding a tree back then was a time consuming thing.Unlike u FS nubs who got buffed,ate uber food,put on your uber 80% res comp armor on with ur elite enhannced weapon then when lair crazy.Im here to tell you thats cake.man that 100% easier then what the holo jedis had to do.And its true some peeps did master all 32 proff to unlock(damn silent proff was a heart breaker ).And we are not talking mastered with all the luxuries all u newer players started with.

And i was here when the pre pub 9 jedis threw a fit when the FS system was introduced but there was a diffrence.That being they really did have the hard way.By the time the holo's were stopped WS and armor smiths ,Chefs,and docs had all learned the game and the full potential of the char so lvling was super fast,and XP flowed like rain.All im saying is not your fault post 9 jedis most of u dont know how hard it was,again because you werent there.If u were hey dismiss what im saying because this is not being wrote for you.Its being written to all the noobie jedi,who think buy get in a group and pwr lvling there way to jedi,they reakly achieved a hallmark in the game.Fact is if u dont like changes hey,hit the road dont let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya.

Look not flaming but really to a launch vet point of view most of you are crybaby's who have been spoiled by the screwed up advancement of proff that SOE created.You get your uber saber,your silly elder jedi title,and uber robe>please dont hate on me because i dont have full temp.really being honest a full temp jedi can be grinded fairly easy,i had guildie did it in lil over a week with a full time job.So big deal?Important thing is for most of u noobie jedi,i got jedi same way you did the easy way,FS grind.So why flame me,all your doing is flaming yourself at same time.Pre PUB 9's flame me and the rest of the noobie jedi we deserve it.You my old friends are the REAL jedi vets Everytime i see my Holo's on my wall at my house i remeber all the hard work you jedi's did,and u still to this day will always be remebered by me.

Good post but alot of people will never get it.

All I have left now really is yes the pre-9 grind was hard and......

My reward: I got to play my jedi for almost 2 years from pre pub 9 to now and had a lot of fun playing it and experiencing it on every level. It was an awesome ride and experience. This is what we have over all the new players and the old ones who will never know how it felt.

Blue glowie as a reward is appropriate since i do feel our profession has died and moved on.
