Just to reiterate what I already reiterated, this is an UNOFFICIAL group run by students for students. The administration is only offering help getting it off the ground, nothing more nothing less. Don't get your panties all in a bundle, if you don't like it you don't have to participate, and don't need to be afraid that JASE members will have some sort of official function in the JA: they won't :)

I think it's much more complicated than it needs to be right now, but I don't really mind the concept.

If you can explain it to the common JAer a little better, I think you will have a lot more success. All the negative posts here, including one or two of mine, are due to miscommunication.

I'd like to apologize for jumping to conclusions. If you need any help with anything, gimme a call.

Oh! Ok. After reading Rogue Lord's comments I think I see now what you JASE guys are getting at.

Guess I look at it this way: if you attend a school with a million billion students, you might find it difficult to get noticed...sure. Grouping together like-minded interests and individuals (even within a common interest membership like ours) is one way to rectify this.

The way I felt I could do something here in JA was help initiate the Holocron. So, yeah, I understand where some of you guys are coming from.

Whelp, I think I better understand the situation now. I can see some of the reasons for those going against it, but I fail to see that if it is implimented _correctly_ how it's going to hurt anybody else. I say go for it.

I'm trusting you guys to make version 1.02 of JASE good and as bug free as you can. If I can help with anything, please tell me (not too requiring, remember, I'm challenged in MANY ways :)).

Jedi Prodigy,
Great to hear your voice! I thought it was about time for your voice to be heard. Thanks for pleasenty suprising me. Sorry, we have not had a chance to hook up to discuss these issues. Very stoked about your post!!! Lets Rock and Roll, IM and EMAIL ARE NICE TOOLS, lets use em properly and finalize this beast....we have received alot of input, which is what we requested, so lets start revising and working with the input, most of the changes mentioned were great ideas. FaDed, you in on this?

Rogue Lord,
Thank you so much for your support. You have always been, and forever will be Excellent, my friend.

Rest of the Jedi Academy,
We would like you to help us welcome the newest applicants to the JASE:
Cloaked Thunder

And, as for the JASE? Well, keep eating popcorn, the shows about to start.

All of Your input, sometimes delivered poorly, but mostly with a good intention, (thanks again!), has all been taken in and we are going into review mode.

Moby- If faded stay or goes im stayin with it, first of all you worked to hard to give up, i just talked to faded, he said he's stayin, "as long as i can."

JASE dead?= Gonna have to get thru me 1st

theres some of you out there who want to be apart of this, if you do apply, if you dont, ignore us, i wanted to start this for nothing but good intentions, not to undermine u JAK's, i have no problems with any of you, faded and moby have worked hours on this, as you can see moby did a great job on the site, faded of course came up wit this and spent hours changin things, were changin things as i speak, so the JASE will go on and is changing things, look for updates soon:cool:

Come on now, every Generation X boy wanted to be Luke Skywalker. Is it because he was a whiney farm boy from some backwater hack planet? No, it's because he was a FREAKING JEDI. He could block lasers with his lightsaber. He could levitate droids & rocks & crap with his mind. Come on, he choked two pig dudes with just a simple gesture. He cut off Darth Vader's hand and kicked him down a flight of stairs. He got his @$$ zapped by lightning from the geezer Emperor, stood up and said "s'at all you got b!tc#??"

HereS my 2 Cents even if its too late to help

IF there is anything that this fast paced forum has clarified 4 me is that there are Sum people/students who are finding it hard to be noticed around the academy (I know I felt that way for awhile). I think that was the only good part of the old point system, is that you could work toward your goal of KnighT (or whatever) w/o having to try an force yourself on people who maybe have 100 other people trying to be their friends. That’s one reason why I always try an dual with the new students an make them feel welcome (right MOBI :P )

Sooooooo when I saw FaDeD, ProD an MobilitY starting the JASE I wasn’t surprised at all an I even thought that this is a good way for people who might never get a chance at being a Knight, Trainer or whatever to get some recognition from their fellow students THIS SHOULD BE A GOOD THING right…?

Anyway I hope u guys keep the project going but I agree with WHOever said “ try an keep it simple” (at least at first) an if the counsel has given it’s blessing the rest of us should at least give ya a chance an wait to see what happens (we can always bash ya later LOL)

An just to clarify my first point July 29th will be my 1 YEAR anniversary at the academy an I feel only slightly closer to being a knight an only a lil closer to knowing the JAC’’s/JAK’s BUT im not blaming anyone for that, ALL of the KnighTs do lots of work around the academy and put in lots more time then I do on the servers/chats/forums so I feel that they have Earned the TiTle.

Soooooooo in the end im still very happy its been a great year here and my dualing/ffa skillz are better then ever (an I love to go on the public servers just to prove it heheheh) and the JASE should only enhance the AcademY <anyone who can live up to that Code of HonoR gets my respect>


u go GUYZ :cool::P:D

Please provide us, or at least me, with clarity Darth Mobility, Faded and Jedi Prodigy. Are you going through with the JASE organisation, yes or no? If yes, please make clear the way you are going appoint the election commitee. All this talking isn't getting you anywhere. Do something :)

This whole thing is unfortunate. I think a lot of it has to do with miscommunication. Posts are no substitute to talking face-to-face with a person in RL.

Oh, well.

And who do you think of? As far as I can see it, there has not happened any mockery here. Students said what they think about it, some of them very clear, some of them a bit more diplomatic. So? You cant blame the guys for not liking your ideas, can you?
Me personally, I dont feel that I have mocked you in any way, therefore I wont apologize.

Honestly, I am not mad at FaDed, however he needs to make a decision. I am playing devils advocate to envoke that thought process.

FaDed knows he has my utmost respect.

:Aeth S'kray: I feel those who participated in blatent mockery of the JASE and It's founder(s) conducted themselves in manner unsuitable for the JA and thier status within the JA and owe an apology for thier actions. (JMO)

hm concerning that JAT JAK issue... when I joined, in late January, I met some JAT occasionally on the servers, and we talked, dueled, whatever.... just they were "present".

I hardly ever meet a JAT except from Shannon on the NL server now outside a class, which is a pity.

Well, as I've said, it depends on the students as well. Jesus, dont be insulted if we dont duel you even though "you're next in line" :) Serious, should we keep track of every student who has challenged us and duel them right form that list??

But I dont fully understand what's going on right now ^^ I thought you, Mobility, were mad at Faded... or did I get something wrong? Now who and why does anyone owes him an apology? I dont get it anymore.

OMG, I love DJ, DJ u are tha shiznit. WELL PUT M8! And to comment on JAK JAT ignoring new guys. Well this same thing happened to me too. I was ignored, wouldn't duel me but would turn away just to duel a buddy even when i was "in line next" to duel. I'm not making this up, I really thought JAK JAT *were* snobs. BUT now that i have hung out with u all i can say u are all cool and great ppl. u have to think though, if i(or any new guy) wasn't as persistent to hang out and know every1, one might just go back to their pubs. Oh and FaDed, U R awesome man. U showed me JA and u helped me train/learn YDFA and RDFA when I first came. Moby ur support, backing & hard work for JASE is very much appreciated by me(and i am sure others as well). now where is my pic, :D JK* lol

EDIT: I am not talking about ALL JAK JAT, I apologize Monty:D
