My number one favourite bearing in mind I always have my Master Architect title up..

Person: Do you make houses?

Presumably they did a search for an architect?

Yup, I get that at least once a day and it still makes me laugh every time.

Im not a Master Architect but I thought this was stupid...

Take into account I had been only playing SWG for about 1 month...

THEM: Are you an architect?
ME: Yes, Novice Architect.
THEM: Can you build me a Large Generic House?
ME: No I cant
THEM: Why Not?
ME: I do not have the skill, yet I am an Architect 2212
THEM: Stupid Noob!

Why does every conversation I have with someone who wants something end with a stupid noob comment! I mean, doesnt everyone start out as a noob?

A common sequence:

Other guy: Can I get a big house that doesn't cost much?
Me: Define "much"
OG: (after long pause) "Can I get a large house?
Me: Of course. What planet would you like?
OG: (after long pause) Does it matter?
Me: Only if you want to place it somewhere
OG: (after long pause) [Names a planet]
Me: Any particular floor style?
OG (a.l.p) Floor style?
Me: I just e-mailed you a link to the SWG Advanced Guide on houses. It shows all the different floor plans.
OG: (a.l.p.) Thanks
OG: (a.l.p) Whatever. How much?
Me: [names price depending on my mood and whether I'm busy]
OG: Crap. Why so much?
Me: They take a lot of resources. Please do a vendor search on the bazaar if you think my price is out of line.
OG: (a.l.p) Where are you?
Me: Ready to start your house once you say go
OG: It's not ready yet?

[Details omitted because thinking of them makes me wonder why I chose architect]

OG: Thx.
Me: You're welcome. Let me know if you need anything else
OG: Can I get some furniture?
Me: E-mail me your list and I'll put together a quote for you.
OG: What can I get?

etc.

btw, to build "whatever" for some reason is 10K more expensive than if they request a particular style

Just 10k? My prices have mysteriously doubled at times... Particularly if they have trouble typing out complete words. (I can't stand leetspeak.)

My favourite moment was in the early days of the game and I proudly wore my "Installation Designer" tag over my head. A toon stopped me and asked me to change his hair color.

We chatted, and I referenced him to my tag a number of times be he was convinced I could color his hair and kept calling me a liar, so I had to make a coffee run so told him to stand still, that I'd do it for free but that it would take 15 minutes, and that the effects wouldn't take place until the next server reset.

I grabbed my coffee, chatted on the phone, came back - he was still there and thanked me when it was done. Never did hear back from him so I'm reeeeeaaal curious if he ever bugged it

got another one today,

person-got any spare houses on u?

me-yea wat r u looking for? (was heading to stock vendor so had some on me)

person-i need a small naboo house

me-i have some of those

person-how much for one?

me-8k (and this is 2k less than i normaly sell for)

person-WAT! thats a rip off on "random server name" i bought one for 4k

me-well they take somewhere aroudn 2-3k recourses so i cant sell for less that 8k

person-well my friend will make me one for free!

me-so....ask him?

person-well i would but he stopped playing the game about 4 months ago

(next day i get an email that went something like this-Person has purchased small naboo house from your vendor on naboo for 10k)
