The below is a word for word conversation.

So there I was standing in a friends house waiting for him so I could slice his 2 Krayt DE-10s (417 and 420), when I get a random tell...


amanaman : hey
me : Hello.
amanaman : i got a bussniess prop for u
me : Spill it.
amanaman : i got a house pretty much first row on coronet south of it and i am a armorsmith i need my armors sliced and i figure since it costs tons of money to have a shop i coronet in the location would u slice my armor for low prices and u couldhave a vendor in my shop
amanaman : and i wanna help sumone out
me : Sorry I don't need or want a vendor at the moment.
amanaman : well would u be my slicer
me : I charge 10 per slice for bulk slicing.
amanaman : u no how expsive that is
me : Would be less if auto-pull was ever fixed.
me : plus with composite the color select window always comes up...
amanaman : geez
me : Most Master Smugglers charge more for bulk slicing these days, ask around.
me : No one wants to take the time at anything as cheap as you are probably looking for.
me : It's just too much hassle with the bugs I mentioned.
me : I make my Smuggler related incoem from selling Faction Points anyway, it's on a much mroe clear cut system.
amanaman : dude i no a nuts one its just hes not on he almost gets 35%ers everytime hes force enached
me : FS skills do not enchance slicing in anyway.
me : FS Luck only gives increased credit loots from NPC kills, and nothing more.
amanaman : ur just too dumb to no how
me : Mhmmmm, right.
/addignore amanaman


I love how someone who can't even spell "know" calls me dumb. Makes me feel all warm and tingly.

You shoulda just said "I *can*, but I won't." Then if he didn't get it, just walk off.

Or just "i need some ingredients i don't have to slice right now... Can you hunt these for me? And i'll make it free for you. I need rancor hide. You will find them on dathomir. And if you can Kill a nightsister and take some of her hide, it will be even better"....

Ok, maybe not a chuckle, but it made me giggle.


I had two guys ask me for slices yesterday. One was a powerhammer, the other a scythe. I got damage slices on both, one was a 24%, the other a 30%. Different guys, and I got the same response:


"i love you"


Who knew slicing would lead to love?
