The way they're making it JTL and SWG basically have nothing to do with eachother except an in game interface to change from one game to the other. There is no reason jedi should not be able to play a game in which they have nothing to show for being a jedi in SWG.
And for those who hate jedi because they don't fit in the continuum..
go read a book fanboy.

How do you work that out? SWG and JTL have everything to do with each othere the only thing that won't is the bounty system.

The xp doesn't relate in any way, can't be transferred for force xp, doesn't count against skill points, etc. You don't get your faction ships by paying faction points, you get them through a possibly imperial shipwright... Your overt/covert state have no effect on space and vice versa. etc etc.
They barely have any relation whatsoever.

just so you know there is NOTHING in place to stop Jedi from doing this sort of low down, but expected exploit. In fact there is no way to track Jedi in space at all. This issued I HOPE will be resolved in the NEAR future, but bet on that when the BH, Smuggler, Commando revamps come around, which should be about the time hell is frozen over. Still not a good time to be a BH, everyday I shift more and more to dropping the profession, slowly losing all patience with this game and the way it is set up. Hope the rumors of LucasArts taking over are true and they totally screw SOE.

By going into space all they can do is work on Piloting XP, the Devs have said that the ground game is not in space. I don't understand how you think this is an exploit, BHs are to keep the Jedi working on XP and make it hard to finish thier template, if they are not gaining Jedi XP then mission accomplished.Let me explain this to you. Jedi uses force powers in front of people for 30 mins. Generates tons of visibility. Jedi gets on the terminals. (with me so far?)Now, jedi has a bounty hunter mission on his head. Jedi goes into space. There is nothing the Bounty Hunter can do about this. Now the jedi is still online, but the bounty hunter has no way to track him. This is the issue.
Yea you make a point there, here is mine.
Same as above but instead of going into space with a mission on me.
I sit in my locked house, or just log out.
There is nothing a BH can do about this also.

Jedi should still be able to be hunted by BH's in space.
The firespray IS NOT A BH SHIP! just because boba/jango fett flew one doesnt make it a bounty hunter ship!
JEDI SHOULD NOT GET ANYTHING SPECIAL IN SPACE! its the only place where us "mundanes" as you jedi call us have a chance to kill you one on one dont take that away from us!

Don't jedi's have their own starfighter (not in JTL atm). What if Jedi's who have ethe ability to use these can have special abilities, but also can get attacked by BH's who have a mark on them?
Nothing like watching a bh in a firespray and a jedi in a starfighter going head to head...
BH should also be able to get specific skills just in their box also.
NO WAY!
The abilities you get are from the pilot tree you choose nothing more, Jedi should not get special treatement in space. Their time on the term should remain the same while in space. NO SPECIAL ABILITIES! JTL IS A TWITCH GAME PPL!!

And you know what, they can't do anything but play JTL in space, how is this an issue? Once they land they can be tracked. YOU ARE NOT A BOUNTY HUNTER IN SPACE, THEY ARE NOT JEDI. Visability generated on the ground doesn't translate, and since they can't get Jedi XP it really doesn't matter if they are not hunted, THEY ARE NOT GENERATING XP in space. The huntis to inhibite a Jedi from getting XP, PERIOD it was not put in for your satisfaction, hence if they can't gain XP there is no reason to hunt them, YOU DID NOT EARN THE MONEY FOR DOWNLOADING A MISSION, PERIOD. Seems to me you just have to /cry, wait till the Jedi is back on the ground.

Say you know what Jedi aren't the ones asking for special treatment, the Bounty Hunters are.
No special treatment for ANYONE let JTL be equal for EVERYONE. Leave the broken grief system on the ground.

Jedi do stay on the terms, the mission downloaded by the BH still remains in effect, the only thing is the missions can only be done on the ground, while the Jedi is a pilot no one gets any special treatment, not Jedi, not BHs.

just make them huntable in spac, it's not like it's a save haven for jedi or something.
If i was a bounty hunter my ship would be full of accurate equipment to track force-sensitive people and this way my target, hell even if i couldnt get my machines i would blast all ships to tiny pieces untill i get my payment.

It's not a safe haven, they don't earn Jedi XP, the BH missions are to slow and discourage progression in the Jedi profession, in space they aren't grinding Jedi XP, so there is no need for the hunt, I can't understand why anyone would not understand this unless they are greedy griefers out to harass others.
Jedi should not be hunted in space, it is not a cheat, exploit or hiding place, this is fact.

3things:
1st: the quote button is left to the smily button
2nd: so the bounty hunters need to wait till the jedi is done with flying
and 3rd: this would encourage jedi's to get high visability and then go out in space (just like they go into their houses)
