Thread: Politicians on BH terminal?
No fighting here. I think this is a good proposal and others disagree. That is what we do here. -- Debate, Discuss, BS about all things Politician.
I appreciate that I can express my ideas as much as anyone else can on this board.
It isnt as if I came here and said thatI thought all Politicians should have to wear pink polka-dot thongs. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...there is a thought. 
Of course when it comes to whining about the "lack of focus" by the developers of SWG, I have tended to a more vociferous stance of late.
Cheers!

I think when any game turns players into content for otherplayers - the game is done!
I, for one, hate this idea with a blood-rage passion!
I'm a Master Politician, Master Architect, Master Merchanant, etc.
I'm a CL-1
So what will I do when a CL-80 Jerk with nothing better to do shows up in MY TOWN and starts opening up on me?
Please! PLAYERS should NEVER be CONTENT unless they CHOOSE to be... It's bad enough that soon Smugglers will be FORCED to be hunted because this development team can't think of anything original to do to keep people busy!
Here, let me Cityban you! There, you are now no longer allowed to... uh.. forget it, I'll just lay down now.
JA!

PS: Herewith I officially promote the use of emphasis and strong emphasis tags:
<em>This is important and must be emphasised</em>
<strong>this is very important and must be strongly emphasised</strong>
My other thoughts is that there are more than enough Jedi out there to keep the BHs busy...why try to drag other professions into it? Add to the fact that the overwhelming majority of players do not want to participate in PvP (which has been said many times by red names), and it makes it even more clear that this is a bad idea.
Many people would like to see player bounties, which is fine with me as long as they make it a completely opt-in system. I have always been a strong opposer of any kind of forced PvP in basic content. PvP is a playstyle and it isn't right to make other players have no choice but to accept that playstyle, same as I would never try and force someone into a role-play situation (which is my preferred playstyle).
Making a system that is solid enough to ensure that all players flagged for player bounties are in complete acceptance isn't an easy thing. I'm very glad to see that the dev team has always been unwavering on this whenever the question has been asked. They've never said it's impossible (to my knowledge), rather that they won't implement something like this unless it's iron-clad and abuse-proof.
What I don't get is why this idea keeps coming up.
If I wanted to get hunted, I'd be a Jedi.

Well put, Mira, as always.
Thanks all for responding to this ...
I have heard talk of ideas forPoliticians being envolved with the BH system from various people...
I just wanted to see what the Politicians thought about this and make conversation.
I have no interest in hunting Politicians, Its obvious I dont know a thing about Poli's
I simply had a question,.. I dont care how stupidsome think it is,.. thats what these forums are for
I asked the BH's the same question and the response is more or less the same.
lol... sorry if some of you got upset.

what yall think about BH's hunting Politicians?
Unless you have a Mayour that is a CL 80 with Extremely High Powered Bio-Made Pets that have over 17% Aggro and High Damage that are CL 70. > By all means, go for it. Roflol 
I am a Master RifleWoman, Master CH, with the ability to heal quickly, and my pets have extremely awesome stats, and Yes, I am the Mayour of my own City that I built from ground up...lol. So by all means, come pick on us Politicians.
After all, you never know what you're going to get. >
But for those that are CL1 I think they should have the right to throw a Mega Bomb at a BH that came after them and watch them evaporate. lol.
