RpTheHotrod Posted February 8, 2003 Posted February 8, 2003 I have had so many people say (or thought I already was) that I should be in the Jedi Academy as a teacher. I do teach people how to play the game, heh, even been called "Master" by a few padawans. How exactly would I become a "master"/teacher. I'm very, very skilled with a saber, and very good with guns. Do I first have to go through some "training"....because, it will feel odd, because I already know what to do. I'm willing to take on a master though. For saber, I can normally takes on 4 enemies at once all against me. I prefer CTF over FFA, due to at least SOME teamwork.
obi Posted February 8, 2003 Posted February 8, 2003 I was hoping you'd stumble this way soon, Rp For Academy information,check out the sticky threads in this forum. As for the gaming side, We do need another gaming instructer. You're more then welcome to join our community. As for the forum side, 0-700posts are padawans of masters, 700-1000 are Jedi Knights, and 1000+ are Jedi Masters, and then you can take on a padawan here in the forums. LFJA members usually keep in touch via MSN messenger, so if you want to join the LFJA community, Get MSN if you haven't done so already. (Trillian is fine too) If you already have MSN, just give me your contact when you join the academy.
RpTheHotrod Posted February 8, 2003 Author Posted February 8, 2003 Yeah, I'll fill in the app Eh, I rarely use MSN, but it's dangearn22@hotmail.com AIM is RpTheHotrod E-mail is rpthehotrod@yahoo.com I'm so creative. I'll try to get on MSN more now to spam to 1,000.... (just kidding!)
Darklighter Posted February 8, 2003 Posted February 8, 2003 A risky joke there Rp;)Well, welcome to the Academy man. You'll be able to take on a padawan when you reach 1000 posts. We are not so much JK2 related at the moment, only occasionally play games when they can be hosted by fellow members. We're hoping to get a dedicated server in the near future though. Anyways, browse around the forum to find out more about us and what we do. Welcome again:)
Guest Jed Posted February 9, 2003 Posted February 9, 2003 Also Rp, I'd like to thank you for your promptness in filling out the registration form. People like you make my job (database guy) easier!
RpTheHotrod Posted February 9, 2003 Author Posted February 9, 2003 Just some information on me I prefer teamwork, so I'll join servers in this order normally CTF--->Team FFA---->FFA I prefer a saber over a weapon, but if a gunner comes along, I'll pull the weapon out of his hand and use it against him if it's an area of effect weapon. I built my force config on forcing the enemy to saber fight or run. I'm great at listening to orders and I'm very loyal. I enjoy helping others as much as I can.
Guest Jed Posted February 9, 2003 Posted February 9, 2003 You sound like an ideal member Rp How proud you would have made some master if you had joined a few months ago...
RpTheHotrod Posted February 9, 2003 Author Posted February 9, 2003 Well, I probably would have joined if someone asked me to, but lately, I've been getting so many people ask what my responsibility in the LFJA was, I figured I'd join so I could tell them something.

RpTheHotrod Posted February 10, 2003 Author Posted February 10, 2003 So.....what to do now? We need to get a server somehow.
Kstar__2 Posted February 10, 2003 Posted February 10, 2003 1. Server Issue: No dedicated server will be implimented due to lack of funds. Games will be hosted by members who are capable of doing so on a volunteer basis. i hope this solves your question;) welcome to the LFJA
RpTheHotrod Posted February 10, 2003 Author Posted February 10, 2003 Yeah, that's why I said somehow You never know, I've seen a group of total strangers pull together to buy a few servers before. Glad to be aboard.
Darth Groovy Posted February 11, 2003 Posted February 11, 2003 Originally posted by RpTheHotrod Yeah, that's why I said somehow You never know, I've seen a group of total strangers pull together to buy a few servers before. Glad to be aboard. Well, that makes the future seem brighter! How could we pull it off without $? Do speak up good chum!
RpTheHotrod Posted February 11, 2003 Author Posted February 11, 2003 I'm just saying, I've seen a few people "pay" for the servers by a certain group splitting the costs, and sometimes I've seen a single person paying for a server alone for a group. Anyone here rich?
Darth Groovy Posted February 11, 2003 Posted February 11, 2003 1. Server Issue: No dedicated server will be implimented due to lack of funds. Games will be hosted by members who are capable of doing so on a volunteer basis. Does that answer your question? LFJA is a not for profit organization. We can't raise the funds required to run a server. Until Goerge Lucas, funds our operation, we shall have to resort to allowing volunteers to host games.
RpTheHotrod Posted February 11, 2003 Author Posted February 11, 2003 Eh, guess I'm not saying it the right way. Here's an example of what happened before. A group I was with online played a game. One of them decided to fund the entire group by buying a server. I know it's non-profit...but you never know when someone might join and offer such a thing. heh, nevermind...forget I mentioned it

I know it's non-profit...but you never know when someone might join and offer such a thing. heh, nevermind...forget I mentioned it Actually, that was the same Idea I had in mind. If I ever get into a decent paying job, I'd fund it myself, just for the exitment. Just so you know, LFJA has not closed the issue should a situation such as THAT develope. If someone who has money joined us and wanted to purchase us a server, we would welcome with open arms and we will once again open discusions. Until some rich bean joins LFJA, the server issue is where it stands. I for one admire your positive outlook for us. We need that around here, and it's good to have you with us! Welcome to the Academy!
Darklighter Posted February 12, 2003 Posted February 12, 2003 Uh huh, we're still keeping an open mind about the issue, though we're not exactly going anywhere with it at the moment. Reason why we can't fund it ourselves is that a lot of the members are under 18, and aren't earning money on a regular basis. Right now we'll just have to deal with members freely hosting games. I feel it works okay, when we get enough people to play. The LFJA is not so much JK2 related at the moment, it is more forum-based, but as we are expanding further I foresee this issue becoming a definite possibility:)
RpTheHotrod Posted February 12, 2003 Author Posted February 12, 2003 I'd fund it...but... my bills cost $430 and I'm making $600 a month at 19.

Damn, and I thought I was doing bad. I make that in a week. In 2000, my yearly income was about 24,000. Pathetic, I know, but a heck of alot better than I am doing now.
RpTheHotrod Posted February 14, 2003 Author Posted February 14, 2003 Ah, but does your job pay for all your medical bills, eye doctor bills, 80% of your dental, 401k, retirment plans, stock ownership plans, all of your college bills, and even a Christmas turkey?
Darth Groovy Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 I had a job that used to give me all that, even the turkeys. Tasted like chicken.
Clemme w/Stick Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 Welcome to the Acadamy RP. I'm soon to be a master...yay ! Well, I'll just add you to MSN and AIM, talk to ya there some day..! -Clemme
RpTheHotrod Posted February 27, 2003 Author Posted February 27, 2003 Well, I'm getting there. I did have 957 posts until an admin deleted a thread of a "discussion" I was in. Lost alot of posts. No warning or anything was given...just *poof* end of disscussion. Why not just lock it?
