I realize that sometimes someone has a reason why they are standing on the dance area of a cantina, but i find it highly rude if other dancers and musicians (especially the afk ones) hog the center of the room and just start dancing on top of someone who is already there.


When i enter a Cantina to dance if there are people dancing in front, i move off to the side so i don't steal their dance space, i would expect the same respect from someone else.


Also if your a spectator, or your practicing image design or what not, please have the courtesy to move off the "Dance" floor, every entertainer knows where this space is i don't need to elaborate on it.

I ended up leaving the cantina yesterday because while I was there first, dancing something that doesn't move me much, another dancer showed up later and started dancing formal RIGHT ON TOP OF ME...while wearing a flesh wrap. ( I almost asked her how she puts up with the wedgies that thing must give, what with all the jumping around she was doing...The icing on the cake was that there was another dancer there with the identical flesh wrap on, which made me want to ask which tailor had done a factory run of hot pink flesh wraps )


Please, if you are dancing something that moves you around a lot, dance off to the side where there is more space, or at least don't keep crossing in front of and through your fellow dancers especially if those dancers are not AFK and were there first!


I'm glad I am not the only one who likes elbow room.

Even more amusing:


I'm grooving with popular, alone, in an empty cantina.


Someone with the title Novice Architect comes in, stands INSIDE me, pulls out a slitherhorn, and starts playing. Then goes AFK.


Huh? Did I miss something here? It's an EMPTY cantina! Go play your horn somewhere that's not my personal space! Or better, take a seat and heal your durn fatigue 7 or 8 times as fast by watching me. Sheesh. Some people.

simple solution. since cantinas are always crowded with dancers and people getting healed etc. spread out to more of the player run cantinas. there's plenty of em that would like business, Like the Heaven's tear ok ok that was a cheap plug in, but if you want some info just contact Naom'zade :0 starsider.

Player-run cantinas also have the advantage of being away from town...people who don't have to come in to a major city tend to tip more.
The downside is that, here at the begining, getting people to come in play (or heal) at cantinas is a tad tough, because it's all so new, and there's no in-game aides to help promite, yet. But that'll change.
