Devs, cut the BS: make JTL perma-overt for factioned players.
i diagree...instead, make JTL perma overt for ACES in rebel or imp ships. its the same as wearing stormtrooper armor for gods sake.
I'd agree with that sentiment, if we (factioned players) were allowed to fly anything other than our faction ships.

Firespray isn't a factioned ship
Firespray isn't available to all pilots.
Or, should I say - forcing someone to pay 5-15 mill for the ability not to be PvP enabled is emminently unfair.

Go to the major spawns of your faction if you want to find some player targets. Most players who are imps or rebels fly overt nowadays for the faction points. Linear Miasma is good if your looking for rebels.

Of course, if you didn't notice, he was saying that it isn't available due to its price and rarity.

Precisely.
Forcing a 'rare' item / hull to be the determining factor for 66.6% of pilots to be non-PvP enabled is completely absurd.
Use the suggestion in the original post, and give us *civilian* ships, and it's all fixed up.

There are 2 faction squadrons whose storylines set them up as direct nemises of each other: Vortex Squadron and the Imperial Inquisition. Or at least Vortex's story and missions are against the Imperial Inquisition squadron.
Turn those two squadrons into Overt squadrons. Both already require you to join their respective ground faction in order to progress. Offer peoplea 1 time free transfer with no loss of 'rank' from those squadrons. BUT
If this were done, both squadrons should receive access to 'special' components. Just like in the ground game for being faction and Overt.

Only if the dev's dont get off their butts and redo the master mission and put kessle back how it was, would ya have a point. And to be honest, im wondering how long it will take the devs to do just that.
As for being a sellout, well, i guess ill take that as a compliment seeings how i view myself as a free mercenary and pirate in game
Kinda curous where you draw sellout from.Resiging rebel pilot?
Or was it a BS helmet sale the other day? (hey, i gave both intrested parties equal and fair chance at it, i could have just told one of the to stuff it)
But seeings how the only loyalties i really have are to myself, sure why not, sell out i be, YARR!

The typical response of the haves to the have-nots... I guess I'll digress before the accusations of class warfare begin.
The other issue, which would make even all the Paris Hiltons of SWG suffer, is the idea of having to dedicate a precious datapad slot just to have a ship that you can't get ganked in. Not to mention having to attain the rank of Master in the first place.
Force PvP on faction and I'll go neutral. Or perhaps just leave and play Alliance for free. And I certainly won't be alone. SOE knows that.
