Thread: In the time between game launch and now, I built a real droid.
Yup. I hit DE on the 7th day of the game. Never got MDE the first go 'round but did fill out half the tree. Asides from mastering about 8 other proffesions since then I also used my free time to build a real life Protocol droid.
He is aJ-3PO unit. (The J is for Jellybean!)
I programed him with a personality so he refused to acknowledge the name i gave him. He insist i call him "a Protocol Droid" despite the fact that i call him J-3PO all the time.
He only talks when directly responding to me telling him a command. And he never say anything original.
I gave him a gun be he got confused and would just drop it on the floor.
I programed him to translate over 3,000 languages but i already speak every know language myself so that not so useful.
I installed a data storage module in him but for some reason i can't upload any files to him except CAD schematics from the 1970s.
I was out testing his ability to walk one day when i got mugged. Despite being programmed to serve me loyaly he fled the scene and it took me 3 hours to find him again.
I was working on an R2 as well but after dealing with J-3PO i descided I'd be better off building a speeder bike.... all that takes is some aluminium foil and a piece of rebar.
Sorry, been in a mood all day. And whining about being a DE is my favorite past time. Its why i came back to the profesion. =D

It's the only thing left for DE's.
