Thread: One of 'those' customers...

The thing that gets me about being a Doc... I enjoy buffing, I enjoy seeing people with names I recognize from books/movies I've read and chatting with them whil my Buff Macro does its magical work, but there's so many nice, chatty and decent people that come forward, tip cash only when it's their turn or apologize for bank tipping that they've become the 'norm' I don't remember them, the people I do remember are those that would be affectionately termed AssHats, Morons, Jerks, and any of the assorted names there are to choose from to describe a 'difficult' customer.


The following is a convo that took place in the mining outpost on Dant, had a day of happy customers, plenty of money in my bank and a few reccomendations to friends, all is good, then this:


Let's refer tothe **edit**as 'BillyJoeBob'


Davros: Tempest Novastorm, you're done.
Davros: BillyJoeBob please step forward, 10k.
BillyJoeBob: I'll pay after.
(DANGER DANGER! WARNING WILL ROBINSON! DANGER DANGER)
Davros: Umm, no you wont.
BillyJoeBob: I don't trust you or anyone else here.
Davros: Why should I trust you then?
BillyJoeBob: Cause you're making xp not me.
(At this point I lose patience, click on the next person in line)
Davros: Relmiram Darkstar, you're up.
(I decided to try again with BJB for some reason)
Davros: I'm maxed out
Davros: I don't need or recieve the xp.
BillyJoeBob: Well I don't need your s**t.
(He then walks off - at this point I'm halfway through buffing the next person)
Customer: lol what a b***h
(he ran off and switched to tells)
BillyJoeBob: how bout you take my acid rifle instead it costed 10k
(At this point I've no tolerance left either...)
Davros: How about no thanks, I aint commando, aint certified and I dont want it cause acid rifles suck.
BillyJoeBob: Well f**k you then
Davros: /report BillyJoeBob


Problem over and done with, I carry on buffing, conversing with my patients and getting a little bit more bored every buff, then I notice this in the spatial.


Chick: BillyJoeBob, did you get buffed?
BillyJoeBob: Chick, the guy wouldn't buff me for some reason


I laughted so hard I nearly cried, guy tries to rip me off, not to mention pis*ing me off, and then says I wont buff him for 'some reason'
heh heh heh heh


Anyone else got Doc related horror stories?


Peace

I keep a No Heal list in my Bio, complete with people and guilds that I will not help. One guy, who for some reason is a big jerk everytime I see him starts to demand that his name be first on the No Heal list. He hops from guild to guild and everytime I see him with a new guild tag, I update my No Heal list to include his new guild. I would rather not do business with him or any guild that has him.

That's a little harsh... If he's guild swapping so often it's probably because the guild was not fully aware of his personality until it was too late...

That's the breaks. I have the right to refuse service to anyone that I see fit. Why shouldn't there be a downside to joining a guild? Everyone that goes on my No Heal list gets their guild on the list for a week. There have been 3 people on the server that have gotten their guild permamently put on the list (for extreme behavior problems). If the guild has a problem then the guild leader can talk to me about it, and we can work it out.


In reality no one cares what aNeutral UnguildedMaster Doctor thinks. I may not be changing anyone's mind, but I'mrespectful to others and I would ask the same in return. I don't just throw anyone on my list. My list is long because I've been keepingone since July and probably about 75% of my list are people that don't play anymore.

Here is one of those horror stories....


Corbantis - Dantooine Mining outpost...


there are three afk buffbots running and spamming 2200+ for three hours 10k.


I think I can make a killing with my packs. 2500+ for 3 hours.. I start off with 6k just to get ppl to notice.
my usuals leave line and come over, I get a line about 15 deep. so I bump my rates back to 12k. no problem until
i get this jack @ss in line that wants to know where he is every 30 seconds. and then starts getting irate when
he finally reads my bio which clearly states that I work on a first come first serve basis. he demands his money
back.. so I give him his 12k plus the 5% for the bank fees. he starts shouting that I am ripping ppl off.. no problem
really so I just let it go and go back to my line... 5 minutes later some genius drags in a dark jedi knight. the first tell
i get was from Mr. Rude wanting a rez... I did what any buffing doc does when someone foolishly drags a huge mob
into town... I kept buffing. 6 tells later from Mr. Rude I finally broke and replied.


"Listen, First you demand a buff when you were not next, and didnt feel like paying a skip fee. *50k* then you want me to
rez you after you run around MO stating I rip people off after I gave you back your 12k plus 5% extra... you have some balls."


Mr. Rudes response was close to "F U D**khead I want a rez. Your a Doctor. Come res me"


/report mr. rude.


"it will cost you 100k for me to drop my paying customers to rez you... or you can release. since your near a cloning center
it wont take you long to get back." I said.


3 minutes later he's standing in line again, this time shouting that he wants heals....


right....

I've got two good ones (one that just got extended two days ago).


1. Back in the days of bank tip scams, I had a strict no bank tip policy clearly stated in my advertising macros. This guy runs up to me and, without a word, bank tips me 10k. First off, I wasn't charging 10k, but we won't get into that. I tell him I don't accept bank tips, and he freaks. "You should have told me!" he whines. My response... "You should have asked." As far as I'm concerned, that could have been a gift because I am so good looking. He then goes to another doc and starts to tell the other doc what a "loser" I am (like I really give two you-know-whats).


Then, just two days ago, I'm working and he sends me a tell asking for buffs. I have a GREAT memory, so I tell him that he's on my no-service list. He says "Come on, man, you're still mad at that?" Guess he should have thought of that before treating me like crap the first time around.


2. Early on in the game, this guy asked if he could duel my wife for fun... "No deathblows." She accepts (even though she was novice entertainer at the time). He kicks her ass, then proceeds to DB her. Total gentleman. I see the guy later on, picking on people in the med center while I'm healing wounds for xp (like I said, long time ago). He's pulling the same crap, except now he's got an alt character on follow and healing him while he duels with people.


Every time this guyor any of his alts (they aren't hard to spot... they all have the same last name... idiot) try to get a buff from me, I say no. He plays dumb, pretending he doesn't remember. He makes a huge scene, and it always ends with my customers yelling at him to shut up a leave. Priceless.

I hate those people. I was on my way to Dantooine to heal and buff some friends and a guy in Tyrena takes out a Banta and a speeder right on top of the Ticket Collector so you can't click on him to find out how long until the ship. Both him and his guild are on my No Heal list.

I had a good one just last night, I personally think it was a scammer.


I popped my Doc to drop a quickie buff on my primary to go hunt the low level mobs on Yavin. I explain that "I'm not opening shop tonight sorry" and type /quit and switch back to my primary toon.


At this time I notice that hes said he tipped the Doc in spacial (/sigh) so I go back and re login for the Doc and scan the system logs but there is nothing in the log. I proceed to say that I have no record of the tip and provide him with a url to the screenie of my system log that includes a tip from my other character (so he knows that the log does record tip transactions). He proceeds to abuse me, so I say well I know that the tip system is a bit borked now and again you provide me with a screenie and I'll accept that as proof (and hope the real tip makes it to me).


At this point he says he doesn't wanna do that.... well sorry buddy there are too many scammer out there.


A passer by takes pity on the weasel and tips me 10k to give to him, which I do, it's not like I need the money. At this point he moves on but I smell the BS in the air...
