Greeting fellow Architects
I just thought it would be nice to get a little background information on everyone who posts (and trolls) this forum. The Architect forum is one of the smallest and least used boards on the forums, so I thought this would be a nice thread to start...
In game name: Owajachi
Server: Tempest
Profession: Master Architect / Merchant and Swordsman Dabbler
Time as Arcitect: 6 months
Time playing game: I have been playing since launch
Background Info: I love crafting and I love this profession. Before this I was a MDE for about 1 year. I don't run 2 toons, so I need to have part of my SP's devoted to some sort of combat...just mainly to get me out of my basement and unchained from my crafting stations. I am doing the Jedi grind and am about 2/3 of the way there...going up the Merchant tree's is a slow an painful road as some of you know. When I finally unlock and get my second toon I am not going to grind Jedi. My plan is to simply turn my Jedi into a pure crafter/Merchant and make my new toon in to a fighting machine 
I have never had a pure combat character so I am looking forward to try that out.

welcome
i tired of the jedi grind so reskilled my jedi to master architect and master shipwright (with the nice bonus of having 4-4-0-4 force crafting mastery from coversion from the old system) and havent looked back
having two chars on the one account is a great bonus saves all that logging in time with alts

In game name: Pawlin
Server: Kettemoor
Profession: Master Architect / Artisan and Pistoleer Dabbler. Plus various others on other characters
Time as Arcitect: August2003
Time playing game: Late July 2003
Background Info: I've been an architect since I started. I started out scraping by from sale to sale, hawking small houses for 10k, etc. As I built up business I started to sell direct to miners until I got overwhelmed with sales. I then increased prices a bit and gradually shifted over to just stocking a vendor. I have also made high rating crafting stations for most of my career. I maintain our FAQ, active architect list and I do the bestine painting summary for each round. I have an alt that I play around with trying out different professions and just to have fun killin things. I'm not grinding for Jedi but I do cash my xp in as I get it. I also have some characters I play on other servers like Oprolan on sunrunner who I've had as a pure miner for about a year. I hate Drall. I wear a paper crown that I made that has elbow macaroni and glue on sparklers spelling out KING Pawlin the Elitist. An SOE employee visits my house and forces me to play SWG at gun point.

In game name: Kyphi Makarha
Server: Bria
Profession: Master Architect, Master Artisan, Master Merchant, Poltician 4223, Entertainer 1031, plus some FS crafting skills.
Time as Arcitect: December 2003
Time playing game: November 2003
Background Info: I started out on Kauri and my first profession I mastered was Dancer. Then the holocrons came out. I switched to Bria with the idea that I wanted to role-play being a merchant. I'm not sure exactly when I decided to go Architect specifically or why, but the character slowly evolved. The only changes I made to my character have been spending the extra skill points that I had invested in politician into entertainer (imagine that), and slowly adding in the FS Crafting Mastery skills. Don't get me started on the 35 to 1 architect ratio. I have two characters working on the village. I have not yet gotten a box from trading in architect/artisan skills points (not grinding). In one night with my combat alt I made significant progress at a rate of nearly 10 times as fast and easy. There are few professions I haven't played in the game, but I spend 40-60 hours a week on Kyphi (stay at home mom does have some benefits). I'm a dedicated fan of Pawlin and Bandola, they are gods within the profession.
::replaces Pawlins paper crown with a lovely silver one complete with jewels, and gives Bandola a circlet::
Did I mention that I'm a crafter/artisan in real life? I make crowns, circlets and other medieval type jewelry, when I'm not busy being a mom or playing on this game.

In game name: Mira
Server: Corbantis
Profession: Master Architect
Time as Architect: about 6 months
Time playing game: 15 months
Background Info: I started the game as a combat type andfound that extremely boring until I discovered crafting and bacame a Tailor. I became an Architect after realizing how much I loved to decorate my houses and realized how much easier (and cheaper!) it would be if I could just make the furniture myself, and I've loved it ever since.

In game name: Hadrian Augustus
Server: Flurry
Profession: Master Architect / Merchant/ Artisan/ Politician
Time as Arcitect: Architect soon after launch, Master by Sept 2003.
Time playing game: I have been playing since launch
Background Info: I have been the Mayor of Aurora since 5 days after it was created. I work with the community to build an online environment that is entertaining for all players that choose to live online in our community. Being an architect is just one means to achieve that end. I truly wish I could drop buildings on all the Gnorts that kill me with regularity. I believe in serving the needs of my customers and try to establish long-term realationships with each customer providing high quality goods and services with a minimum of fuss.

In game name: Maas Neotek
Server: Valcyn
Profession: Master Architect, Master Artisan, Master Merchant
Time as Architect: Ive been an architect from the minute I finished Engineering 4
Time playing game: 7/04
Background Info: I got started at the pestering of a friend of mine. He tipped me on to the 2 week free trial. Next thing I know I have bought a copy and am sitting in a small house clicking furiously on structure moduels. I have never looked back. Ive dabbled in combat, but now I am (on this toon) a pure crafter. I am doing the FS grind as I cap my XP during normal work making customer orders, but I am not going to be a jedi. I dont know any one who has become a FS Crafter via the village (no free unlocks) so I hope to be the first in my own little circle. If my calculations are correct I will become a FS Master Crafter shortly after I die of extreme old age.

In game name: Kamehnu
Server: Radiant
Profession: Master Architect / Master Artisan / Touches of Merchant and Rifleman
Time as Architect: 3-4 months after launch
Time playing game: I have been playing since a week after launch
Background Info: Artisan and Architect were the first and only professions I have mastered in the game. I have done it with little to no grinding depending on your definition. I enjoy the crafting and economic side of the game greatly, but am considering grinding to get my second slot. I have seen player cities grow and die, yet will still help to build them. My hope is for SOE to take the time and spend the recourses necessary to maintain and repair all professions.
