I mean,

I'm pretty sure the outcome is A- contraband should not be on vendors-

But the question is- What are we going to do with this information?

How is it being used?

Are Contraband vendors out of the question?

Are things like Veela's cool as hell, Casino option being batted about?

Can you even talk about this stuff?

Why do I have the feeling the answers will be:

NDA

OR

No one knows

Oh, I know that one. Usally it happens when I get into my office, drop a few of my "Good Morning Blurps".

Then I remember that most people in the forum here are in the negative GMT...

Yeah,

I guess the other thing is:

I feel like there is a push to claim illegal materials- Or I should say, I feel we need to push more to make it understood that illegal materials are our gig-

Everyone has been able to sell (on vendors, I mean) contraband for so long- they just get upset when you mention removing them-

or say that you should have to be a smuggler in order to put contraband on your vendor.

I remember how pizzed people got when they changed it so that if you dropped business 3 you lost your vendor as well-

people got upset over it but you should be an active merchant to run a vendor-

this is sort of like the same thing in my opinion.

I'm just very curious as to what is going down about this- if anything- and where do we stand?

I wonder where we stand in everything Smuggler. No one is talking and it really sucks, we all have great idea's on may smuggler issues but what's the point of working on any of it if the Dev's are not willing to even be open to the idea. /shrug

All sliced armor and weapons = banned from vendors

All Spice = only sold by smugglers. If the smuggler has business skills then as a smuggler he can sell spice on his vendors. If the Smuggler has no business skills then he can either sell them on his own or load his spice into a "black market" vendor. These vendors would be NPC's and place in select citys and criminal theme parks.

If I the time comes when I cancomment on vendors and say"look, Smugglers want this", I'll use this information to do so.

Are Contraband vendors out of the question?

No idea sorry

What I've gathered from the pole:

The majority of people, if faced with the choice of A or B would go for A;

Many however would prefer a third option (such as contraband vendors/casino etc.) and/or are chosing A under the premis that something additional would be added later;

99.9999999% of people want all contraband removed from the bazaar.

Doesn't take a genius to work those three out as they're fairly self evident from reading the posts.

I realise that I'm seeming about as useful as a chocolate teapot right now, my apologies for that .

Theed was a bustling commerce city...people hawked their wares, danced, laughed, dueled, and had a rollicking good time. Cantinas packed with Entertainers of every race, shape and size...along with scoundrels, Stormtroopers, and drunks. People grouped up and stuck together in the wilderness, and you ALWAYS took a Scout or a Ranger with you. We lived our own Star Wars saga. We created our own personas, our own histories, and it all blended into this wonderful, magical experience that I will always remember...

That magic is gone now, but I'd pay 50 bucks a month to have it back.

I have to echo Veela here. Mmm chocolate... lol

Hey Wes, don't feel bad about that, nothing you have control over. I have total confidence you do your job the best you can.

And I way prefer to see you post a "NDA, sorry" or "can't talk about that" or "I don't know" than you not posting at all.

No apologies needed my friend- And THANKS for the heads up.

I figured as much- but it's good to know I'm not crazy.
These Devs are tryin' to kill me behind all this waiting to hear they have a plan of SOME SORT for us.

It's just HIGHLY frustratin'.
