I hate it when people come up and ask 'What can u change about me?'

I tell them 'everything you can do at character creation, plus a few hairstyles'

And then they ask 'Cool, but what is all that?'


Oh joy. Publish 8 is starting to scare me. What am I gonna have to say THEN?

"Everything you can do at character creation, only with more colors, more hair, and this snazzy particle-based glitter effect that is SOO cool..."

Ohhhh ! What I hate most is those that dont really know what they want but accept each and every change (usually, they want high end changes) and it drains my mind so much (I made my mind at 1000 and focus/will to 1.1k !)


And people that dont tip, but i have made alot of credits earlier so im well fed (once made 600k in an hour)

Doctors that buff stats out of order. Oh…did you mean related to ID? Heh. Whoops. I'll have to go with folks who think they know what the numbers mean, but don't.

"Could you take it down a notch?"
*lowers value by 20, offers*
"One more click?"
*lowers by another 15, offers*
"Perfect!"

"That was 35 'notches,' by the way."

People who take up your time previewing everything, only to decide they don't want a change, and then run off without tipping because they didn't accept any changes. That's still a half hour I'm never getting back, buddy!

People who don't communicate much and let the offer time out. Then when you reoffer they say "I didn't like that one" and don't refuse and let it time out. People who think that it's my absolute duty to ID anyone who wants it.

I agree with Nevs. Nothing annoys me more than people who let the offer time out. LikeI have 3 minutes to showthese guyseach and every hairstyle in the game for which they will tip me 100 credits.



And doctors who don't buff in order should be shot!

I think one of my biggest pet peeves is when you are already busy working with a customer when someone walks up and says "hey can you do an image design on me?' Do they think that the game revolves around them? sometimes I have to wonder.

Another annoyance:

Customer-"hey got time for a quick hair color change?"

Me-"sure thing"

we meet somewhere..I do the hair color change and then..

Customer-"Oh yeah I forgot I also need a new skin color"

Me-"any color in mind?"

Customer-"Oh I don't know just pick what you think looks good"

Me- /sigh

After 10 minutes of not seeing anything they liked and its..

Customer-"ok nevermind, put it back the way it was before..Oh and I need to be a little taller."

Me-/slapself.

this wouldn't bother me if the person had originally just stated that they need some work done..some,meaning a few changes here and there. No problem..but please for the love of all things holy..cut to the chase and state what you want done from the very beginning so that there is one less angered Image Designer in the Galaxy. Wow I feelbetter already

I've discovered a new one, and it's the Wookie Hairstyle Situation. A Wookie asks for a change of fur colour, but they want to be a single colour all-over. To do this you often have to change their Markings, then their Fur Colour. And of course, they complain and say, "no, I want to be the same colour all over!"


"Yes, well accept this new marking pattern, then I'll change it..."


And people who don't give feedback really, really, REALLY annoy me.

*whistles innocently, pretending not to have done that way back when* Look, I'd never had ID done before…turns out me being an idiot gave me a better look than I had in mind, so I guess it was good in the end. (My Wookiee had been brown with black markings, I wanted black with white markings, ended up white with black markings—looked fantastic…kinda like a panda, but still very cool)

this is more amusing to me than anything...


Them: So how much do I owe ?


Me: how does 10 k sound ?


Them: 10 k ? the last ID'er i talked to did it for free...


Me: Thats fine, but i need somewhat of a monetary reward for my services...


Them: Ok, fine, change me back, im never gonna get ID'ed by you again and make sure my friends dont either!


Me: (gets a little annoyed but, alas ! and idea pops in my head) Say, i have anther idea, how abouti f i changed something else that might look really cool on your avatar... it might be worth the 10k...


Them: Ok but make it quick


(I then proceed to make the person look like a total j@k@ss)


Them: I dont like it, change me back...


Me: Hell no **edit**... (/disband, /tell all server ID'ers to not ID the borked bastage)

Ultimate peeve: People that find it necesarry to plant themselves between you and your client so that you can't see anything anymore... or worse..Doinks that find it funny to build you in with Speederbikes at the Starport.. I know that moving is an option.. but i have this space i usually stand where most my clients know they can find me if they need ID work done..


Annais is very petite.. but that is no reason to completely walk over her... Perhaps we need something in which people can't walk over or stand in eachother... like in real life... would give the word Queue a new meaning... And then theres...


*gets sealed in by speederbike as she is ranting along... their enginesounds muffling her speech*
