SWG will never grasp the true SW world because of the flaws with the Jedi.  Too many Jedi players, this is not realistic of the Star Wars world we all have come to love and expect. 

Just doesn't seem right to me, but I will admit I didn't give the game a fair shake.  Is there a problem as far as the Jedi character goes?

Well, the amount of jedi wouldn't realy be bad if they actualy had the correct timeline. With the timeline they are set in the jedi have already been erradicated. If they set this between the 2nd and 3rd movie the amount of jedi running around would be fine. Instead of between the 4th and 5th which just doesn't make sense =)

no, even then there weren't 30 jedi standing outside a starport dueling. you didn't see sith hanging out with

those they hated. hmm......then again, there were only 2 sith....

Actually the original pre-9 system worked like a charm until soe messed it up in publish 9. (only thing i would remove was the perma death, everything else was perfect)

The old system allowed many many many people to have jedi, but at the same time it seemed like no one had a jedi. 

you ask why?

Because: The lightsaber TEF kept the jedi from being too powerful over normal players, and it kept the jedi from walking around towns with their saber turned on. If they did turn their saber on they would be instantly attacked by many players, and this is good because they are supposed to be in hiding and not walking around cities showing on jedi moves.

And this is how the original trilogy was too, jedi were a rare sight, so having it the same way in the game made the jedi sort of mysterious, you didn't know who was a jedi and who wasn't. Jedi had to stay out side of towns if they wanted to fight show off their saber, or do it in a back alley where no npc/player was was watching. (I found roleplaying a jedi is way more fun when you actually have to be in hiding) Not having combat levels also added to the mysteriousness of a jedi. I remember my jedi, and how i was a super low lvl guy with no skills hardly, but i pretended to be a super powerful maximum lvl jedi to a full template rifleman. He didn't even attack.

Alpha classes can be in a MMO you just have to do it the right way.
