ok i know peole are gunna whine and whine (cough*Mastz00r*cough :P) about this, but i had a idea. That we should have Pupil taught classes. With at least 1 JAK/Jat present., i thought it may help , but ur thinking 'omgz0rs unofficial lessons he stupidd' but, i mean as in they go to a JATJAKor JAc run over there idea and get opinion and time. have a post on forums about it and see who turns up.

Of course you don't like it. But if we went around saying "Sure, go ahead and make classes" to everyone, there would be no use for the JAK+ except as admins on the servers.


"We don't want to feel useless" is not you're best argument to date :P
The part about the JAK+ being smart and best is perfect though. Was about to post the same thing (I especialy like the fact you didnt mention game skill there)

It's no problem if you're on a server with a bunch of people and announce that you want to have a training session with everyone there. But the idea of classes is reserved for the JAK+, not students


Which brings up the question of what exactly is meant by "Official Class" and "Unofficial Class"

Official - Authorized by a proper Authority (the JACs)
Unofficial - Not official (ie. Not authorised by the JAC)
Class - A group of students who meet at a regularly scheduled time to study the same subject.

So "No unofficialy classes" basicly means. Students shouldnt post when they are planning to teach something...

Or did I get lost somewhere?

Side note: for any who read this and have beening missing me, Moviebattles mod still rocks but im gunna be active here too :P

Of course you don't like it. But if we went around saying "Sure, go ahead and make classes" to everyone, there would be no use for the JAK+ except as admins on the servers. That's not the goal. Now, excluding me of course because I'm a n00b, the JAK+ are the best and brightest of the game, and have the right "certifications" to teach classes. Students can train eachother, that's no problem. It's no problem if you're on a server with a bunch of people and announce that you want to have a training session with everyone there. But the idea of classes is reserved for the JAK+, not students, hence the name. :)

I wouldn't worry much about it, it's not wrong to just randomly attract a small group of people and show them stuff you know. I'm sure THAT'S encouraged at least. The whole unofficial padawan thing works too, ya know. Find a couple or few people willing to learn from you and shoot. :)

Well, obviously we wouldn't want a forum post like that, because it's a guy teaching about lunge: a move that is only used by the n00bs of the game (Jacen Aratan).

What he's saying is he doesn't want a forum post like:
Subject: CoolJedi69's Lunge Class
Time: Tuesdays @ 12:00 GMT on the jk3classes server.

We'll be going over the lunge and why it is all you need to be the most elite player in the world...etc etc.

But if you and your bros want to meet on the classes server at a time that doesn't conflict with an official class, then I would be surprised to see the JAK+ throw a fit about it. I guess just keep it on the DL :P. Underground classes > *.

If youve got anything to share then go ahead and do so.Its always appretiated when students help other students out.Something like an official class is a privilege and a luxury of a ranked member though, which you dont have.
Theres no rule which says you arnt allowed to hold unofficial classes.Just be sure to not expect support from ranked members or interested students.

So really Talion, you could imitate what MOTREC did if enough people respect what you have to teach and would like to learn from you. However, MOTREC has the advantage of being here significantly longer than yourself, aswell as being a past JAT and teaching a duals class in the past. Anyway, if enough people were to give you word, you could perhaps make a post on the JA's forums annoucning a time you will be on server and willing to teach people whom could be online at the same time, which would be, "not endorsed by the JAC" of course. Personally, I would not recommend such a mission in your current position at the JA, as your ability to teach is virtually unknown and the majority of the JA members may choose to spend their limited time in other activities. Just my thoughts.

Nope.
Alot of people ASKED Motrec to train them, so instead of darting about from person to person all the time, he stated that he was going to be on a server at a particular time if people wanted to 'gather'. Nothing more.
It was not official and was not endorsed by the JAC.
