First off, STOP WHINING!
The old days are just that, OLD DAYS! There is a new system now so get used to it! And as far as you old jedi's that think that you should be the only jedi on the servers need to shut the hell up. I started playing this game 153 days ago to be a jedi and all you old school jedi are trying to make it so I will never get my initiate status. The jedi nowadays are almost equal to any other profession in game, and thats just not right. It should take 8 people to bring down a jedi. Since it's so friggin hard to be an initiate in these times, respect should be shown for us who are ignoring the extreme nerf and pushing through the village quests. I started to play this game to be a Jedi, not a BH or a Crafter. I'm not going to say names but I know way too many "scared-i-cat" jedi that hardly ever play their toons. If they do they sit in their house or just outside it not wanting to do anything for fear of a BH coming to collect a bounty. **edit**?! If you have a jedi, use it. Stop being a chicken. I plan to play on my jedi constantly, grinding out xp in hopes to become a very powerful jedi.
You cant be to concerned with BH'ers anyway, 9 times our of 10 the jedi always wins! The few BH'ers that do actually manage to kill a jedi are pre-CU chars with pre-CU weapons that have a great advantage over the weapons we can make at this time. I am a MBH myself and have tried 3 times to hunt a jedi with the same results. I care not to hear about how many jedi you've killed as I have killed none. All it takes is a stasis root and you cant do squat while the jedi pummels you into the ground. Usually the jedi will run away at this point. Is this a complaint? Nope. A BH should have to be good to take a Jedi down solo. This is why the Jedi profession is slowly being nerfed to death because BH'ers complain they can never kill a Jedi. Hell, thats why SOE made the new BH npc loot revamp, cause they know you aren't supposed to be able to 1 on 1 a jedi.
Personally I don't care how the old days were, cause I didn't play back then. I play now. Stop living in the past and being so high and mighty on your pre-CU horse. If you dont like the way the game is, stop playing. I'll be glad to take your position as a # on your jedi list. There aren't too many jedi on servers so shut up already!

go play kotor or ja if you honestly bought the game, purely to be a jedi
Dates do not tell u when someone started as it has been pointed out before. I myself didn't use the forums for a very long time.
As for the post, one person's point of view.
are you the jedi police? No I didn't play in the old days, which is why I wrote this. Stop whining! and if I buy this game to be a jedi thats my perogative, not yours. I've played those other games and they are weak compared to SWG. I'm not complaining about anything other than the fact that all you vets think you are hot S*$* when you really aren't. You just had more time to play.
And whats so wrong with me wanting to be a jedi? The way I see it, most people start to become a jedi than quickly learn how much time and effort is involved and they stop. There is no overflow of jedi on servers, at least not Tarquinas. So what if i wanna be a jedi anyway, what harm could I possibly bring to you? I don't care for the PvP, I care about loot and acquiring things, which is my perogative. Of course I don't know much about the Jedi and the old ways, but I dont need to. Like I said, I'm starting in today's game, not your version of the game a year ago. I'll deal with it, so should you.
I'll "whine" about the old days until they bring it back.
You pro-CU people are so friggin selfish and ignorant of the truth. You like the new system for yourself because you refuse to learn the old, which required skills and practice.
Do the math. 1 million SWG copies sold, and only 200,000 subscribers exist. Thats 800,000 gone.. about 15-20,000 people signed the anti-CU petition and a vast majority doesn't even know the petition exists and would undoubtedly sign it also.
The CU sucks. I got used to it and I "learned" how to play it (if you consider playing Fisher Price toys having learning curves), but it still sucks. Many months into the CU, and I don't see any indication of people SOE promised will start liking the CU when they grow accustomed to it.
Think about it also. You're tired of seeing anti-CU post? Has it occured to you that maybe there are so many anti-CU posts because most people don't LIKE the CU?
We'll continue to post until SOE wises up and listen to their playerbase.
Thunderheart recently told Isselle, the SWG Stratics.com Editing Manager, that he admits that he misses pre-CU also, but it's impossible to maintain and upkeep both pre-CU and post-CU servers at the same time. Lets keep pushing him to chose pre-CU!

I never said I liked the post-CU. Never said I liked the new system, I just said that I am dealing with it.
us post-CU people are ignorant to the truth because we we DID NOT PLAY THEN. We are playing the game with which we purchased to the best of our ability. And why learn the old ways when clearly they are old? Not really sure what you meant there because, well, I wasn't around back then. I've read a lot(not alot, alot isn't a word. go back to school) of posts on jedi and various other professions and sure I've seen a few things from the old days I wouldn't mind now. I'm just emphasizing the fact that most of the powerful jedi on our server are from pre-CU with all their pre-CU sabers and clothes and what not, and they STILL own all other players. The old times jedi are super powerful, why are you saying you aren't? You guys had it easy back in the day, we don't, and you continually strive with all the complaint posts to make it "more fair" to other non-jedi professions. You got your damn wishes to the point where jedi are almost equal to other combat professions. Fine, I'll deal with it, but jedi really should not be equal to all other professions. I'll end it with that. My rant is over
