Thread: Am I a bad DE?
I don't make BH droids. Maybe a lil one now and then but only for friends to decorate houses.
I over charge. Or rather charge what they should be worth, not that they are actualy worth.
I refuse to make chassis in crates so people can mass decorate. I think Chassis should be either display for a DE or used to make a droid.
I don't have a BLL billboard, since that would make it have a use when it obviously doesn't. I use a power droid, at least they can power droids.
I make stims so i never have to live off droids. Droids are pure fun, and by earning profit from medic skills i never have to worry about selling droids to people who only want them for a module.
So... am i a bad DE? I have no intention of mass production or profit.

No. Strange and hairy, but not bad. 
It is good to see that some people still build droids because they find them fun.

I don't tell lies! Pfft!
You have to make chassis' in crates... a batch of 49 Adv R3 chassis' is a very nice sight to see. 
Of course they got used up when I made a factory run of Adv R3 droids LOL 
I make BH Seekers and Probes because I have customers who want them and they draw people to my shop.
But I don't make anything the customer wants.
I won't load MSE up with all kinds of junk because I think it's stupid to cram everything I can make into a shoe box and undercharge my services for some punk kid. I help people out all the time if they seem sincere with money, resources,droids and other items. I'll even show them how to make money so they can (hopefully) help others. But I'm not going to give everything away.
I won'tput crafting stations or med modules in a combat droid. Combat droids kill, they don't craft or heal.
I won't put multiple crafting stations in a single chassis.There aren't that many people who need them, and it's rediculous to make one droid that can do everything.
If DE get's combat modules that will fit into ANY chassis, I'm not sure I'll even do that. MAYBE bipeds, but not Astromechs, Power droids, or Treadwells and definately NOT MSE.
I don't mind making Seekers or chassis for decorations. I like decorating so I understand why other people like to do it also. Even if it sometimes seems silly.
I have fun making and playing wih droids. I love them. I like selling them and educating people.
I charge a reasonable price. I don't try to rip people off, but as well as having fun, I'd also like to be able to pay the bills without spending all my time running missions.
If BLL don't have a use, then I'll find a use for them. They're fun even if they aren't very userful right now. I won't be obnoxious about it, but I'll use them for advertising (as soon as I can make them again 
).
And as soon as I CAN mass produce droids, I'll start cranking them out. Mostly crated components so I can custom make droids on the spot for people.
I'm having fun.
I'm glad you're having fun too.

Thats sick. R3s in crates.
Anyways, I keep sending people to you. Like some dude who ordered 10 of every chassis in crates. And some guy who wanted like 5,000 BH droids. Also the guys who send me tells saying "OMG d00d how much 4 a ub3r combat droid??? Wat can i get 4 500k?". I really like directing those one too you, cause i like to think that for ever guy i send to you that is cool and buys stuff you make, you get at least one guy who will ask stupid question then procceed to tell you how much YOU suck cause a prbot has 800HAM and a pea shooter.
