Dancer Archive

I'm an ATK Master Dancer and I love it. I chat with customers and enjoy many repeat visitors that make the quiet times in the cantina so much more enjoyable. Though I have the buffbots in my chosen cantina on /addignore, I'm always reluctant to do that to the other afkmusicians and dancers in case they ask for training, or actually come to life long enough to want to join my group (perhaps it's a bit snooty, but I only allow ATK, non-spamming entertainers in my group).

However, I had to change that stance last night to prevent myself from getting angry every time I saw a certain spam. One dancer repeatedly spammed several messages at a rate of at least one a minute - two of three were the usual "Tips and Heals Appreciated" and "All of entertainers are working together, please spread your tips around". Aggravating and annoying, but nothing all that unusual.

The spam that got to me (and while creative, I still find it tasteless beyond measure) is the following:

"All entertainers are wearing special cred-pouch equipped g-strings, so please tip us"!

Several times I found myself letting customers know that I was not, in fact, wearing such an article of clothing! I mean, I guess if she wants to say that about herself, that's one thing, but don't lump me in with you by saying "All Entertainers"!

In any case, just sharing

All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near. - Sun Tzu - The Art of War

My favorite to this day:

"I'm AFK (Macro)...."

Not exactly tacky... but extremely pointless..

You know what.... It's time that all text and /emote ability was removed from macros. Seriously... there is no good reason to allow anyone to have text in a macro. It has no positive impact on the game or the game chat engine.

Wanna hear the one that takes the cake? The ultimate evolution of complete laziness? There was a guy in coronet begging for credits at the ticket collector, saying please give me some credits so i can get off this damn planet. So hos this new? well he didn't even have the get up and go to do it himself, thats right the first ever AFK street beggar.

All spam is tacky and annoying. The other night in Theed, this dancer who was actually ATK was spamming. Something like:

"I'm never AFK, tips and heals are a choice not a requirement, blah blah blah...."

Ugh.
