Having only been a MBE for a month now I am still fool enough to run about with that tag over my cranium. I've used quite a bit of gametime explaining what a BE cannot do to other players, but over the last week most of the tells I've gotten have been from players just starting out as BEs and asking me how to become a master, ok fine I give a few ideas about what to sample and what to grind and how big a pile of meat and flora they will need and then I get the "Can you give me the meat and flora I need?" I say Sorry, but I don't have any xtra and then it goes back and forth a bit as they feel I'm holding out on them. I REALLY do try not to be rude, and I have in the past given away junk resources rather than delete them, but having this same conversation 3 times in the last week is frustrating.

My best n00ber BE story in the month I've been a BE:
n00b: I hear you can make me a rancor?
me: I can but it will be high level and it will only be a housepet for you.
n00b: But I was told you could make me a rancor.
me (quickly frustrated): Ok, fine, I'll make you one, how much can you pay for it (knowing full well the offer will be closer to 0 than a fair price)
n00b: I can pay 2000cr
me: That's not enough
n00b: Please! I'll go make money after you make me a rancor and then give you more. I promise.
me (feeling like I'm in a New York City bus station getting pan handled): Very well, since you're new I'll do it for 2k.
n00b: How do I change back?
me: What?
n00b: When I want to change back to a wookiee how do I do it?
me: What on God's green earth are you talking about?
n00b: I don't want to stay a rancor forever, how will I change back? Do I come back to you?
me: Listen little n00ber, I can make a pet FOR you, it sits in your datapad and you call it out like a speeder bike.
n00b:NO, my friend told me you could make me a rancor.
me: Well, I can't. Go play Everquest. Bye. (/addignore)

sounds like a bad case of the language barrier and/or a mean friend lol

Nonetheless VERY funny

You should have taken him back to your house and told him rancor only works from 1st person... so he will have to adjust his camra and go wide angle, then drop a Rancor deed on him and let him be happy for a minute before you /ignore his sorry butt.
