You have to remember, when they posted these, they were still pretending Jedi were rare.

No, you missed my point Swen. Every time you turn around the game has been made more "Jedi-Friendly".

No XP loss when killed in PvE

No BH droids working on Kashyyyk

and now, with Pub 20, the Jedi's name won't appear on the terminal (making it hard for 5 BH to get the same Jedi name for a gankfest) and Jedi won't generate Visibility in a group.

I was mistaken then in thinking this thread, like many others in this forum, had no point

I believe, and I could just be talking out of my ass here, that this was done for a distinct and clear purpose. The issue of fixing guilds or single people trageting and griefing a single paddy to exclusion of any others to make their life a living hell is a nice side effect of this change. I know the devs want to end fight clubbing for the jedi frs. If they make it so only BH's with your mission give you frs xp, and the BH doesn't know who's mission they have, it makes it near impossible to game the system. This also fits with moving jedi hunting to mbh.

As for the rest, it has been made more and more jedi friendly. Jedi is what sells this game to a lot of people. I personally would've loved to have unlocked in the old days with a new jedi character and perma death. SOE and LA seems to be catering to the lowest common denominator. They want to make jedi, the thing that attracts a lof of people, accessable to the casual player.
