All the stories have been hilarious, i read straight through all of them lol. Unfortunately, through architect, weaponsmith, and now sticking with smuggler, i have never seen or been involved in such nooby stupid situations. lol.

Another one for you all:

I come back to coronet and forget that I am overt. No big deal when some leet starts shooting I just fiegn death, as I am lying there I send a quick tell to him.

Me: Ummm, you can't kill me you know.

Him: You're exploiting! I had your health bar empty, how can you fiegn death? Sh**8****

Me: Fiegn death will go off anyway, it just also incaps and prevents db.

Him: I've taken screenshots for your exploiting you fafoiuiofsauaiouwyeriuaydfsiuy

This continues for 5 minutes while I sit there and laugh at him, meanwhile I notice the three other overts sneak up behind him and cap his a55.

I wonder if he did turn it in?

The best one I got was when I was role playing my smuggler on Tatooine. I got asked if I was a NPC that sliced weapons, in a PM/Tell

I replied back in a PM/Tell " yes mate how can I help? "

He then replied " Cool, SOE realy do make the NPCs realy life like."

Lol, great thread. i just started on smuggler for my holocron (and not a bad profession to end up with), so i don't have any stories yet. I just got slicing II, so will be starting commercial slicing soon. It sounds quite amusing! If I've learned one thing from this thred, it's to charge a straight 2000cr rather than 100 cr/%!

I think the randomness causes alot of heartache for smugglers...

Having a Master Armorsmith for a business partner has it's advantages, so I set off in search of a Master Smugglerwith a crate of 6 Composite Armor helmets. I always have trouble keeping enough mind, so I wanted to get a good encumbrance slice so I don't have to pop spice all the time. I try Coronet and Theed, then finally find a Master in Bestine.

Me: I've got several helmets, and just want a good encumbrance slice.

Him: It's random, I can't choose.

(My computer chooses this moment to crash)

Him: You still there?

Me: Sorry, crashed...I know it's random, that's why I brought several. Just keep slicing until you get a good encumbrance slice.

(pause while he starts slicing)

Him: (lists off 6 effectiveness slices, all around 20% range) Sorry...

He didn't even charge me, poor guy. Got another helmet and another Master Smuggler the next day and got a 40% encumbrance slice on the first try.

Had an experience with one of those impatient, annoying types the other day. I've got 0440 Doc, which is all the skill points I can afford for it, and have been maxed on med xp for ever. Being a regular at Fort Tusken, I rez because I can, not to get med xp. There was only about 10 of us at the Fort when the 'deathspawn' started. One of the group gets killed in the caves. Now, there's no way I can get down there to him by myself through all the Torture Lords and Avengers and all. One of the other guys starts cussing out the medics because we don't hurry ourselves down there and rez the dead guy (which i guess was his buddy or something). I tell him that the only way to get down there is to get the whole group to clear the caves (still a bunch of Tuskens up top, too). He starts cussing again about how it's the medics 'Job' to get down there and rez. /addignore.

About 10min later this guy gets killed. Now, I can tell he's dead from the group list, but I've no intention of rezzing him. Apparently he startsto rant in groupchat about getting a rez. One of the other group members rips on the guy, defending me and does so for like 5 minutes. It was pretty funny, just reading half the conversation.

While waiting for the shuttle:

Addict01 Pukes.

Me (shifty): Hey, pal. You look like you could use some spice. I happen to have pixie by the crate.

Addict01: Gimme 2.

To protect the sad and unfortunate no names will be used in the included dialog..

So yeah, i'm chill'n in the starport waiting for the shuttle... great, another 9 minutes. How can i waste some time? Then my prayers are answered. Some goofy guy not 10 meters from me is getting trained in TKA-something skill. he's all fired up and wants to duel anything in sight now to test out his KD punch. hehe, yeah so i happen to be wearing my Teras Kasi Monk tag and it goes a little something like this:

ME>> "hey dude, i'll give ya a chance to knock me out"

Him>> "OK you're on man, but no DB ok?"

Me>> "of course not, i've got too much stuff on me for that"

/Duel.... he Accepts.... I quickly dart about 20m away from him and WOOHAA!!!

LOW BLOW / PANIC SHOT / LAST DITCH / LAST DITCH.... GAME OVER.

Him>> "no FAIR!! you're suppose to melee fight me!"

Me>> "you just got pwn'd by a smuggler. have a nice day... Nice KD, btw LOL"

Moral of the story smuggler folk... lay low and let your prey come to you... Its all the sweeter when the tables get turned.

I don't have a slicing story, I try not to slice for people i don't know, but I do have a funny story.

A group of us play SWG, that met playing CS...some of our other CS friends starting trying out SWG, and we'd "train" them, helping learn the GUI etc. Well this one guy was cluesless, couldn't learn a thing. Since Im one of the most patient people, I finally got stuck with him, and thought I was making progress. We're making our way back into town, and he's checking out all the houses as we pass them....

clueless: hey this house is locked

me: ok

clueless: why is it locked?

me: they don't want people in there i guess

clueless: why?

me: they don't know you, they only have their friends allowed in

clueless: but i want to go in there

me: its not your house, don't ya lock your door when you leave your house?

clueless: no

me: ah ok....I gotta log.

I have only ended up reading about the first page and a half of this thread. I am quite nearly a master architect who's already getting bored with architecture. Until I started reading this thread I was pretty sure that I'd be headed to smuggler next. I may still end up doing it, but I just want to thank you all for the horror stories, keep them coming.

I must say that prior to taking up the trade, I was not a great customer. Not a total moron, but the first slices I ever got were free, andI never wanted to pay again after that. At least, never pay full price.And wouldn't pay a non-master at all. That was before I realized how many expenses there were on smugglers. I feel pretty bad about all the smugglers to whom I was unkind. I repent.

And now I'm just a few pounds of spice away from mastering it, butI've gottenbourgeois (you know, not elite, but not poor) and I don't have to slice for a living, but I swear I won't undercut the cartel.

These stories have cracked me up. Thank the maker I was never as stupid as some of those people.

Seriously, I thought you had to be an adult to play these games - or at least 13 or something.
