Hi all, whats the most hated question you dread seeing popping up barring of course "you buffing?"


At number one on my hate list is:


"How good are your buffs?"


I mean **edit**??? how long is a piece of string... When will they understand what the word random means???


I just say they are bloodyrubbish hence the queue of mind numbingly stupid people sitting in front of me patiently waiting.

I put a disclaimer in my Bio about the randomness of buffs, and if they didn't like submit a /bug report about it. When I first started playing back in early July, some people thought that buffs were something you could buy and apply yourself. I had to explain to them that buffs have to be done by a Doctor.

Mines got to be 'can ou buff?' to which they normally get the reply 'yes thanks' or simply 'yes'then leave it at that. 10 mins later you get a tell in caps cos you havent buffed them

Anyone noticed how little times you get a please in teh 'are you buffing' tells?

I actually got someone telling me that they weren't going to pay for a buff if it was under 1300.

Like I have any control over it, I'm using +25 clothes, I have a 110 droid, I'm using the best bivoli I can find and they're ~900 packs, if the buff comes out under 1300 it's not my damned fault is it ?

I just told her that she could pay like everyone else and if the buff screwed up blame the game not the player.

What was the worst part was that I wasn't even wearing my master doc tag - she just examined me and saw I'd mastered doctor.

I get "buff plz" all the time. I read on here one that I decided to use. Some ran up and asked "You Buff?", and I did /flex, "I like to think so". In reality I get the "Are you buffing?" most often, as most people that know me, know I don't like being a buff-o-matic. I have since created macros for "/r Yes, I'm buffing, 10K for a full set" and "No, I'm not buffing right now, sorry".

My fav question goes like this.


Im buffing a friend/guild or got a bug up my @$$ and answered someone that was spaming ppl shouting"looking for buffs,

and someone sees me and asks for buff"


ppl "who good are ur buffs"

me "i use between 800-900 power packs"

ppl"what u don't have anything better 800 is kinda low"

me"well from what i know, these r really nice packs"

ppl"there r other docs in coronet that use 2000 plus packs"

me"not to be rude but u really don't know what ur talking about, how bout u let me the master doc show how good my buffs r before u say i sux. And u do know the buffs r also random"


start to buff

low buff ends up being around 1500 high buff somewhere are 3k


ppl"wow these r nice buffs how bout i give u 2k for a retainer"

me"well there is a reason that i never wear my master doctor title, i don't like traipsing around the galaxy to buff or rex ppl. U can always send a tell to me but if im doing something else im not going to drop what i m doing."

ppl"but thats y im going to give u a retainer"


normally about this time i just stop listening to the person

heh heh I like the idea of a retainer but it would be much more costly than 2k. I would charge probably 500k per month that I am on retainer for that person. But that would be dumb of them because I am not on 24/7 to buff/rez them.

Buffs don't bother me, as I only buff when I'm advertising to do so. The thing that seems to piss me off more then anything


"I'm outside starport, I need a rez"


"ok"


"dooD!!! where are you?! I told you to rez me!!!"


"Oh I'm sorry, I must have not noticed where you said please in there somewhere. Gotta log! Cya!"

"Can I get a buff?"

Seriously. It's the most annoying, most asked question i get. I don't even have my title on. You think paying me 20k is going to change my mind? No,,,you just don't get it. It's like I'm expected to wait on you or drop everything I'm doing just to buff you? NO!!!


I /addignore anyone who asks me to buff them while I'm still loading the game...but that's 7 months of sick and tiredness

as I sit there saying "master doc selling buffs" with my droid someone standing next to me sends a /tell
are you buffing

I usually have to keep myself from /replying "no I just am taking my droid out for a spin"
