Thread: Cancelled my 4 accounts because of multiple AFK BH kills

I had 4 accounts between me and my 3 kids that I cancelled because a BH AFK killed me. These have been the only times I have been killed by BH is AFK. Other players can get up and use the bathroom, answer the door, get a drink or do any number of real life things that take them away from the keyboard for a short period of time. This latest BH was hitting me for 300 points of damage while I had no Auraor Valor running. This guy would never have a chance against me otherwise. I wouldn't mind the kill if it didn't damage my gear and cause me to loose 300K of XP.
There needs to be a mechanism to let me go AFK when not in battle to handle real life issue. So my 4 accounts were Station pass accounts. So I apply a $80 penalty to SWG for unbalanced game dynamics.
ps - my kids didn't play that much anyways since they have started school.
Hurray for the BH that killed you, you deserved it for being so careless. Also, learn how to spell, it is LOSE not LOOSE. If there is loose xp laying around I'll take it please. Don't let the door hit you in the ass, you will not be missed. I can't believe you have children, stupid people shouldn't breed.
P.S. You should join your kids in school, you whine likea kidand need somebeginner spelling classes.

Fix the system. Stop flying the planes without landing gear. Stop driving the car with flat tires. Stop eating moldy bread. You have the power to get this fixed. My guess is all these posts are from BH that farm credits from AFK jedi.
They can easily put a AFK toggle to let you go AFK from BH only when not in battlewhere you can't be attacked by a BH. If you touch the keyboard or click mouse or execute a macroed commandit toggles off in such a way that you saw it toggle off.
Then you would see lots of jedis afk just to bug BH missions, and why cant you just logout? I havent seen your answer on that one, you dont lose anything if you do
i cant if i use /logout im not abile to enter again .. iahve to quit and reset game again( for me its min 5min )
i think this guy got same point ..afk need update..

I guess your childs are happy not to be able to play anymore because of your own frustration....
Nice example to show them : i'm frustrated with something, you won't be able to enjoy it anymore.
What if you don't like beef anymore? No more beef for your childs too?
Last point : SOE doesn't care about 80$ a month.
Maybe you do, they don't.

LOL. See ya. Don't blame soe for your stupidity. The mechanism you are looking for is /sit followed by /logout
You don't need to type /sit, /logout makes you sit down anyway
And to the OP, are you serious? Why would you wander off and go AFK and not logout, when you KNOW that BH's can come after you? It's common sense you require, not a mechanism to allow you to go AFK without getting attacked.
Oh and on a side note...

It's not often I say things like this, but...
Did you think Jedi would be fluffy and easy and nice?? When I started down the glowbat path, I could be attacked by anyone overt OR covert of the opposite faction just for waving my saber within the past five minutes or using Force Run to escape. And it was FUN. Ever been chased by an angry Armorsmith wearing his own finest and trying to sell it to you while he smacks you with a power hammer???
It was fun, and you numbskulls who think that playing a PVP profession SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED and clearly communicated to be HUNTED AND HATED should have a nice, fluffy carebear time durinug PVE are the ones who got that fun yanked from the whole thing.

Regardless there are people behind the keybaord who have honor. I have met plenty of players who play BH who have honor. One in particular even tips his mark credits for speeders he may have destroyed. The point I was making to the OP is that he needs to watch his back and not expect the kindly BH. BTW don't put words in my mouth. I did not say they were supposed to have Honor. I said it was RARE.

Your best bets are to have a house you can set down or /logout. My tactic is to set down a house and /logout that way when you come back your chances of finding a BH camping your logout point is minimal.
You have to realize these MMORPGs are filled with jerks like some foundin this very thread. If a BH sees you AFK sure they will attack. It is a rare honorable player who won't attack. The type to attack you while you are AFK are wimps to begin with so consider the source and cover your bases.
I always find it funny that people have this misguided notion that bounty hunters are supposed to be honorable. As far as u going AFK in a public place where u can be killed? Well. Everyone else has already said it. Get over it.

In this case, I assume honor replaces mathematical intelligence.
If you have played long enough to become a honorable jedi, I'm sure you have familarized yourself with /logout (hell, you even mentioned it) and it's 30 second timer. If this command is too hard a challenge to use, there's another command (a button really) that you can access from the launchpad, called "Cancel subscription". This button will end all your horrors and you can go chat on aim with honorable chitchatters for hours on and on.
Jedi who go afk instead of logging out and then proceeds to whine about getting killed are one of three things:
- Ebay-lot
- Rryatt-kiddie
- Heavily intellectuallychallenged
It's not my intend to flame here, I simply wish for you to understand basic game mechanics.
I find absent guardians of peace to be dishonorable.
You are posting to the wrong person. I am not the OP of this thread. The OP of this thread is over-reacting as far as I am concernedbut I see no use in flaming him for not using /logout . I am sure he has figured that out by now after wading through the countless flames. No?
It's called quoting for emphasis and sometimes it's honorable to elaborate.
