Dancer Archive

I just flat avoid cantina's period these days, and choose to haunt my own cantina. For a change of scenery once in awhile I will visit the cantina of a neighboring city, and have been known to do planetary tours of player city cantinas where I spend the evening hopping from one player cantina to the next

ive gotten downrite nasty tells for not grouping with people but i have a rule i do not dance or teach afk entertainers there for if i dont know you i dont group with you. ive had dancer have the sudacity to tell me to stop dancing or to go somewhere else and dance i was a master i didnt need to dance i was stealing there xp well i had only gone in to heal my own bf but i decided in stead to stay the entire day i was online. that dancer never did come back to that cantina thnkfully.

Oh, and just a little plug for the first Entertainer Awareness Day event being held on Bria in the Coronnet Theatre this Sunday at 4pm ET. We are asking that as many dance/musician/ent. masters (along withthose with novice musician and dancer) attend as possible to offer training, inspiration and awareness of our profto new ents and non-ents. We are encouraging non-ents to pick up the novice entertainer skill and find out how much fun entertaining can be and what a nice group of LIVE people we are. We are also asking for some tailors to attend and provide clothing for the newer ents, as well as for established ents to donate costumes. Come prepared to have fun and make new friends!

Oh I think that's a great idea!

It might get missed in this thread as just a plugthough, please promote it in a new thread if you have time! My girl is pretty poor on Bria (read low profile ratty dancer ), but I think I'll have to pop in and check this event out!

its only started in the last month and a half really before that the atk dancer would dance out there to avoid all the afkes and catch the people as they come in but alas the afkers decided to do it to now anytime you go to the cantina in coronett you get super evil lag if you forget to use the back door. and for all those afkers who said the atk dancers can just dance elsewhere no no we cant as proven vby this you just follow us.

I get the "super evil lag" regardless of where I enter the big cantinas. I have a relatively new computer with lots of ram, so I have to assume it's my awful connection (26.4-Kbps connection, for reasons I won't go into). I think the visual lag is a ram issue, whereas the lag I'm getting is due to the strain of 60 entertainers all mechanically inputting flourishes precisely every x.x seconds; that's a whole lot of bandwidth being used up. My ping goes from 230ish to well over 5000 with 20% packet loss the moment the door (front or back) opens. I tend to hear cantina chat up to five minutes after I've left, even as far away as 2000m.

I guess I'm lucky I mastered before holocrons hit, because I'd have quit in a heartbeat if it'd been like this when I started. I'm still semi-retired for the usual reasons, but it must be extremely disheartening for new entertainers who don't have access to broadband.

I hate it too.. corontet on flurry is so packed you can't hardly find a spot. the front door is packed with afk'ers.. Frankly I have stopped dancing pretty much at this point, due to the horrible lag in the cantina and the rudeness of customers not wanting to pay for "something we didn't have to work for"

i too am very glad i mastered before all this. the only reason i ever go to coronett cantina is to sell buffs or heal my own bf but now i avoid it completly. i have a relativly new very fast computer and cable internet i useually get no lag. whats worse though is now there a whole new batch of afkers in ah.

i have over 14 right now im not sure exactly how many 10 of them are on display at my city cantina in wabisabi i have the treatments to make 9 more and 1 schematic but i waiting till the new colours come out to get any more.

You are crazy!
