I'm only 1211 CorSec, and I really don't want to have to complete a mission while trying to avoid PvPers. PvPingshould be a choice that does not affect your advancement in any profession.

I love it... barely a week has gone by since release and already another thread asking for the same thing I asked for while still in beta..... I have JTL, and use my vet reward to avoid waiting for shuttles and the fees, other than that, I am not playing JTL at all, nor will I till something is done on this, I will /sign but doubt it will do any good.
In beta about 5 of these posts a day... all ignored, day NDA dropped I started This thread, and TeiLinn started This thread...... you notice it still has not changed, oh well another 3 weeks or so when all the casual players get to 4444, then we will really start seeing some posts I think. The question is will it do any good?

lol Im not a griever or a PVP'r I just know that to play any game of any challenge you got to fail a lot of times and learn from your mistakes. The devs didn't plan for you to blow through a profession in a day or even a couple of weeks. Master was supposed to be months of work. Sit down and have fun for Gods sake. If you can't get master from Kessel on the first try then how good will you feel when you finally beat that challenge eh? 90% of the fun in MMO's is the journey to the level cap, not what comes after. Take it easy and play.

It pains me to think there are others out there workign hard to make sure that someone doesnt make master pilot by greifing ppl doing missions in Kessel. Devs take the mission to an instanced zone in Kessel at the least! The damage players can do is insane. Its either time for a pvp damage nerf or move the master mission away from Kessel as far as lightspeed can take it
And for all you greifing n00blets that feel more l33t because they can totally gate someone from the mission. Flame away
/agree

Umm no, keep it the same. I dont want this game to be carebeared up allready. If you suck too much to do pvp correctly bring a group, the devs said you need a group to do the later missions afterall. Go suck your thumb ok? I dont want this to become EQ2...
Its asswipes like you that are the reason that the majority of players hate PvP and that Master Missions need to be taken out of Kessel.

Absolutely. Let them PvP, they deserve each other as a group. Won't be joining them, and they'll never understand why.
As for petition...

You bring up a very important point in your statement, and it addresses the biggest issue any game of this nature faces: time to level.
The developers don't plan for people to blow through professions in a day. However, people do. Look at the ground game. Hologrinders, AFK macros, spawn campers, etc. People running around in 80-90% resist armor, buffed to insane levels soloing virtually everything available. I'm sure within a mere day or two after JtL launched the first Master Pilot title was awarded. What is there that can be done to stop this? Should the developers impose a time restriction to levels? For example, to obtain a "Master" certificate, you not only have to complete a series of missions, but must also spend a given number of hours in flight. To make it fair, it would have to limit the number of hours per day that counted towards the total. Can you imagine the backlash from implementing something like this from the overly vocal "You Suck" types?
On topic of this poll, I completely agree. As time progresses and more and more people get the "Master" title, the higher the percentage of griefers will be. You don't think there will be spawn campers? Take a ride over to the geo caves and look at the spawn points. Heck, go to Mos Eisley and look near the cantina. AFK spawn campers there as well. The point is the entry points into the PvP systems will be camped. You arrive to complete your mission, and before you can react you've already taken a couple hits and you're either sitting back at the station, or staring at the - EJECT - icon.

Crazy to have PvP optional and then put the master mission in the PvP zone.
