..having worked twice, maybe three times as hard as the current xp/bh system requires.
ROFL. 5000 dmg sabers. 85% saberblock. Lightsaber damage resisted by nothing. Uber doc buffs that made you PvE invincible. Dervishing lvl 99 voritor lairs in 3 minutes by yourself. Able to grind in the wild and actually get xp for it. Solo groups. Farming krayts for premium pearls on bugged spawn points. Bugged spawns in the geo cave. AFK grinding in the Warren. Yup. Sounds like it was pretty tough.
Nobody is claiming that grinding Jedi now is difficult. Stop pretending it was before.
dont forget how much xp they lose andgetting ganked by 20 people... those 99 voritor f@#% you up with out this innate armor we have now.

I'm turning my frustration to you due to you being an ass to hundreds of people. So I unlocked post-cu...sue me.
I also feel for you, butthings haven't even happened yet, and your freaking out and making threats to quit.
I think that ALL jedi need to stick together, not make a treehouse and put up a sign that says pre-cu jedi only
MY days for wishing for just that have come and gone. This is the Jedi world we live in. Me vs You. Pre vs Post. That is until the both of us completely destroy the game.
United we stand Divided we get nerfed because were to busy fighting each other and not SOE.
MY POINT EXACTLY. Your fight is with SOE, Not people who have what you want. Its a childish game to try to take away from someone else exactly what you want because you cant have it.
This argument going on here is exactly why something needs to be done. We have pre and post CU Jedi's arguing over each other, why? Because systems have changed drastically, on the one hand you have Pre-CU Jedi. Now no matter what you say you guys had it damn easy getting Jedi, hologrinding was well easy (Grind a profession, dump it, carry on) but you guys had a hell of a bad time once you got to Jedi and I really do feel for you guys. If you died by anything (not jedu BH) you would lose tons of xp, you had TEF's, you had perma-death etc. It was hell for you to get a full temp Jedi.
Now we have post, the village.......what a b i t ch, the village was the most annoying thing I have ever done. You have to get 6 full FS branches (Box and a Half) in order to be able to obtain boxes ina branch you had to unlock that branch by doing a quest then you would have to wait 3 weeks to unlock another. To fill your experience out you had to convert your normal xp into FS XP, any combat ratio 30:1 - combat 3:1, I dread to imagine how many times I have gone back and forth to that bloody village on Dathomir and I admit at one point I gave up, thought I never do it. But then I thought to myself I want Jedi and if I want something that cool, I got to work at it. So I continued, got the 6 branches, old git visited me - I tookout Melliche. Done the Padawan Trials and here I am.
Now actually grinding Jedi compared to pre-cu is way easier and I understand pre-cu's Jedi bitterness towards it, we have the not worring about dying by anything other than BH, we have no TEF's unless a BH is on your a$$, we don't have perma-death, hell even now you don't get Vis if you are in a group and you use your force skills with your groupmates. So I admit on this side of Jedi we got it easy.
Now let's look at both systems at one point we both have it hard and we both have it easy, so why are we fighting with each other. One thinking they are much better than the other and have poor attiutude about it. We are JEDI as you can see above we have all paid our dues one way or another. This is precisly why we need the sabers balanced either with a fix or a nerf, I say fix becuase we need to increase our sabers damage or something becuase the BH's have so much fun walking over us at the moment, no offense I believe that a saber should slice a rifle in half not have us running away becuase our little flashy sabers are too weak 
There is no balance at the moment, a BH gets his perfect weapon by getting people to make it (weaponsmiths) shoves an ADK on it, sorted. What do we get hunting Krayts with which by the way you can't do with your own Jedi becuase your saber is too weak for crappy pearls and no offensive guys unless you are a pre-cu Jedi with flawless pearls the BH's are going to win us over.
So we need to stop bickering with each other and work together, we are one profession not two. You don't see the BH's arguing with each over, we need to start treating each other with respect.
My 2 cents worth anyhow
Let yourself be nerfed and we see who needs to "learn how to play"...

well it sux for everyone.....ive been a full temp jedi for over 6 months with nothing to do....i could have made alot of progress in the FRS in this time
but the FRS was taken out cuzalot of u pre-CU jedi cheated to get high pvp ratings, it was a broke system, why it was taken away
(and can u say nade grind anyone)
how on the planet do u figure that? what if i didnt play the game pre-cu? what if not because i "didnt want to farm krayts" but...i couldnt...because i only started after the CU?ive played a lot of games before...so...in Quake if u played a year before me u get a better railgun than me? i dont think so.... all i want is the exact same chance u got...either nerf them to hell....or...give me a chance to loot them also, if i tune crappy tunes...thats tough luck for me, but i dont even have access to it, i can solo krayts just like you, i can wake up when everybody is asleep and the servers are empty...i can get my own pearls, im not looking for a free ride,just a chance and replying by saying "not my fault u didnt play" is not even a reply
Sorry but I think I deserve the premuim pearls I have. Everyone had ample oppurtuinity to get them before CU when krayts we're spawning like mad.
It's my fault you didn't put the time and effort in to do that.

yea this is what the jedi community is all about now a days. pre cu guys who curse at newbies. this is ridiculous
Let me explain something to you noob Jedi. We already put in our time. We suffered through all the BS it takes to get our pearls. It took me 1 1/2 years to get full template Jedi and get a decent saber.
We didnt have resource kits with the very best resources at our finger tips. We have to run around every planet and survey and then drop a harvestor. You think 1000 OQ stuff was being harvested once a week???? Hardly!!
We also werent able to /respec our Jedi to full template in 3 weeks due to glitch in the system.
We also had to hunt for a prem pearls and tune 100's of them to get a decent tune.
We also delt with perma death
We also delt with TEF's
We also delt with skill loss
Why dont you cry me a river Noob Jedi about how bad you have it. You sicken me. The only reason your a Jedi Post-CU is because it was easy to get. People like you belong right back where you were before the /respec BS. NOT JEDI!!

Holocron grinding was a joke and you know it. The current Jedi system is much harder and time intensive. I've done both so don't try to convince me. Most crafting professions were done AFK. A good amount of the combat was done the same way. The same was true of jedi XP earned. Now a few weeks of double XP is an exception but with the current combat conversion it feels hopeless grinding a jedi.
Hate to say it, but you really don't have a clue.
