Well, look at it this way, killing something or blowing something up is fun and cheerful. Ummm..... so is gouging old man's eyes with sticks.

Something interesting happened to me before work. I'm out hunting borvos with a companion and I get a /tell asking for a slice. I tell him he needs to get here in the next 15 and I'm sorry I can't meet you somewhere convienent.

/tell back np. I will come to you.

We finish killing the borvos and the guy shows up. He asks if I can do armor. My heart sinks.

Me(spatial): Man, I've been out of shock absorbant padding for a week now and the ones on the bazzar are 350k.

Him(spatial): I know. I spoke to such and such he told me to come to you. And I bought the shock absorbant padding

Is 1M enough for your services?

I'm falling out of my chair and I switch to groupchat.

Me: Is this guy SERIOUS? What do I do? I've never charged that much for ANY slice.

Companion: Meh. Take it.

Oh, man now I'll feel bad. He bank tips me before he gives me the armor (Grrr..... watch it be pre-cu) and I soon see why he offered so much. 3 pieces of ADKed shock trooper armor. The mil was probably insurance he would get it back.

Works for me, Now I don't feel bad anymore. I slice it and give him his armor back.

Good job, trader.

Kicker: he asks if he can hunt me down again for the rest of the pieces. *die*

Customer: Ok, I want 75k faction.

Me: Wow, that will cost a lot.

Customer: N/P I have money.

Me: Ok, that will have a cost of about7.2 mil {(75000 x 1.117)81 } = 7150275

Him: Hmmm my "friend" never charged me more than 50k credits for that much.

This guy honestly wanted you to believe that anyone would sell faction for less than a credit per point? I think we ought to put our heads together and find some way to hoist such people on their own petard.

I got another one.

Dude: hi, what would it cost to get2 weapons sliced for max speed?

Me: An arm.

Dude: haha thats funny

Dude: seriously how much

Me: Seriously, an arm

Dude: what

Me: I'll take one cybernetic arm. (this guy was a master pikeman who already had a cybo arm attached to him, so i was positive he had another one).

Dude: Oh lol yeah i have one that i don't use that seems fair enough

Me: Nice. Lets do it to it.

I proceed to slice his weapons, then I quickly turn around and sell the cybo arm for 1.3 million, whereas those slices would have been 600k.

Client: So what makes you the best? I thought all smugglers sliced the same

N'Varra: Then why are you here?

Client: I was told you were the best

N'Varra: Ok then, let's get started

(does some slicing)

N'Varra: I am sure you will be pleased with the results.

Client: Wow! This is awesome. Thank you. I am going to tell everyone I know to come to you.

/tip 950000

N'Varra: Much appreciated

Client: You really are the best. Thanks again. /bye

N'Varra: That's what they say /bye

Not meant as boastful, but I find it funny. It's all about credibility and reputation in the end.

Just tell him that it requires 500 units of Dathomir pumpkin, which can be looted from Ancient Bull Rancor nests.

These stories remind me of sooo many. It's hard to not just put them all out there at once...

Ok First: Anyone remember early on when there was visual glitches with hats? Twi'lek puts on hat. Twi'lek takes off hat. Twi'lek gives hat to huuman. Huuman puts on hat and has lekku. Was very funny.

Huuman: So what else can you do with those lekku other than communicate?

N'Varra (lekku): I can detach your groin from the rest of your body

Huuman: What are you saying? Can you teach me that language?

N'Varra(Ryl): Do you have headtails?

Huuman: No

N'Varra(Ryl): Well I can sell you a hat that has pseudo lekku built in to help you understand

Huuman: How much?

N'Varra(Ryl): 500k, but you will be able to understand lekku. Nobody can understand it without this item

Huuman: Deal

(trade, huuman puts on hat with lekku visual glitch)

Huuman: Ok, talk to me now

N'Varra(lekku):You are SUCH a dumbass

(all the Twils in the bar howl with laughter)

Second: Standing around Kor Vella cantina, very early on ingame (was my starting city), having just come back from a 5 week jaunt on Dathomir. Was almost Master Smuggler. Hanging out in the bar, some Trandoshan was mouthing off to my girlfriends, /slap /punch /puke etc. He wouldn't stop so I asked him to come duel. He said of course. So out we go.

I had NEVER dueled another player at this point. He makes the duel challenge. I accept. (Didn't know that gave me an advantage back then). Panic shot, last ditch, last ditch, incapped Doshan. DB.

Well needless to say, he never came back, and I remember thinking to myself, hmmm, this might be the start of a legendary story...

Login....
I am in my city's cantina (i am the mayor)

Time for me to train a little, in my civilian cloths (duster, sunguard) i go to the shuttleport.
There are a bunch of guys on speeders facing the terminals (just next to the shuttleport). Our city is imporved job market and you can have lvl 80ish missions, so it's kinda normal.

Then i see "xxx challenges you to a duel"
I turn back, use target command to find the guy.... He is there, on his swoop, looking at me...
Then "xxx invites you to join a group"

/me ponders
I decline
He invites me again

That's to much for me... I make a few meters away from him, grab my laser rifle....

Accept duel
KD
Startle shot
Placed shot on the swoop *kaboum*
Torso shot
endduel

I put my rifle back into my duster, and proceed to go take my shuttle...
He remains on the floor (stop spamming kd recovery !) and said something i don't want to reproduce here.

I removed mission terminals and banned the guy from the city, getting away with simple sentence : "never mess with an ex-smuggler mayor"

I guess i won't see him again for a while.

I have been reading this thread off and on for a while so I figured I would post a story here as well.

I just landed in cnet starport and start walking throught the starport to buy a shuttle ticket when I get a duel request, I turn around and see a guy in plain clothes, no guns no armor and I figured what the hell.

/accept duel

/advanced crit

/underhand

/headshot

/advanced crit

incap

at this point I am just about to end duel when I see a tell from the guy saying "**edit** I was just trying to see if you had my mission"

/deathblow
