ARGH!

That was all I could say when I came back and my vendor disappeared along with 200k of merchandise.

Hours earlier, I viewed these forums and noticed a few people claiming to get hit with "fixed" vendors.

I quickly log in and burst run into my store.

I had put 28 days worth of maintainance only 3 days before, but with 200k of merchandise, I would need more than that, or if worse come to worse, I had a dead vendor.

I came, and it was fine. Or so it seemed.

I was scared, my heart pounding, so any good news was great news. I look inside my vendor status and see that 17 days of maintainance are left with a rate of 1. Whew. But I didn't notice then that I had 28 days worth only 3 days ago.

I go my merry way and journey around tatooine, killing creatures, greeting players.

6Hours later, I log back in andI referred 3 people to my store and ran there to meet them.

My vendor was gone. All 200k worth of items were gone with it.

ARGH.

My other vendor was still there, the one that had nothing in it (was going to put the deeds and droids in there).

I also remembered, something I noticed in the forums that I did not recall until my vendor disappeared: The rate shows as 1 for some people when it actually "eats" the maintainance faster.

WHY? IF WHAT I FEAR IS RIGHT, THE DEVS JUST STUCK A FLAGPOLE UP OUR COLLECTIVE @$$ES SIDEWAYS.

Same here, poof gone! Those 50 days the status window told me passed pretty quickly it seems. 10 droids gone, each worth 15-20k. it would have been nice to at least give a little warning in the patch notes. Or how about sending a warning email if your vendor runs low? I mean you get an email about so many unimportant other things too.

I'm playing two characters. One ranger/rifleman and the other droid engineer/merchant. The only skill tree of those that seems to work is rifleman. I'm slowly getting a really bad mood devs...
