For those that voted B


Consider that you will now be able to charge a premium for your wares when they are illegal. You can make more money selling less product because you will now get paid for your lawbreaking skills. As it should be. Much more fun than what we have now.


If cocaine were made legal tomorrow and could be sold in walmarts do you think the price would stay the same or drop drastically?

How many K's of radioactive are yuo going to carry around to craft aome pixie on the spot? - why do that just carry the crates of spice already made we are smugglers after all.


You won't be able to carry around already crafted spice. Both the Rebels and the Imperials frown on spices and sliced weapons. - again we are smugglers, carrying around crates of spice IS WHAT WE DO.


Allow for a smuggler owned vendor and allow it to be placed outside a building. - I dont go to a vendor to buy ...err...."tabacco" I go to a dealer, vendors for illegal items is just silly


I'm trying to create a black market vendor and it is looking as if I'll have to use a small house to put the vendor in.

I 'm not a merchant so I can't place a tent. - a better idea would be to make a location avalible on every plant, a small out of the way place "off the beaten path" that smugglers can load spice onto (like the vendor system now) and make that an unsearchable black market vendor system.


What I really want is a little ratty fellow hidingamongst the trash cans in the alley behind the cantina. - now your talkin

1. Make sliced weapons unavalible for vendor sale.


2. Place an NPC next to every cantina that only smugglers(any lvl)can use to load spice into and any player can use to buy spice.



Now we have a slice market and a non-vendor; vendor for spice and if the NPC dealer/vendor has no spice it's like your local dealer hitting a dry spell.


Problem solved.

Yimaz and my previous post



I never thought of the tools as being illegal.Probably should be treated a illegal though. - read my silencer posr (like8 back) there is no need what so ever for the tools to be illegal


I really don't care one way or the other just iof they are then that gives me one more violation


The line of thinking about the stuff shouldn't be so easy to get seems to be looking at it from the standpoint of the purchaser and not the supplier. - the suppliers are the ones who want it off the vendors

I'm looking at the question of where am I going to store several hundred crates of stuff?



How many K's of radioactive are yuo going to carry around to craft aome pixie on the spot? - why do that just carry the crates of spice already made we are smugglers after all.

I don't know about you but I can only carry...Lets see..

80 in a backpack

99 in my personal inventory

10 crates per droid using 5 droids = 50

total 229 crates

Now where do I put my armor or lothes or weapons and oh I forgot my tools?



You won't be able to carry around already crafted spice. Both the Rebels and the Imperials frown on spices and sliced weapons. - again we are smugglers, carrying around crates of spice IS WHAT WE DO.

Something must have changed becasue last time I handled radioactives I got burned. That was a long time ago - year to a year and a hlf ago so this might not be a problem now.

So now instead of a crate of spices I get to cary a bunch of veggies, fruit, metal, and whatever along with my tools and my armor and my weapons.



See above comment


Allow for a smuggler owned vendor and allow it to be placed outside a building. - I dont go to a vendor to buy ...err...."tabacco" I go to a dealer, vendors for illegal items is just silly


Vendor is probably not the term I should have used. Change vendor to pusher or barkeep or whatever jsut to differentiate it from a merchant vendor.



I'm trying to create a black market vendor and it is looking as if I'll have to use a small house to put the vendor in.

I 'm not a merchant so I can't place a tent. - a better idea would be to make a location avalible on every plant, a small out of the way place "off the beaten path" that smugglers can load spice onto (like the vendor system now) and make that an unsearchable black market vendor system.

I'm trying to do that now within the restrictions now by partnering with a merchat to have a "back alley " Black Market" vendor with nothing on it but anything we can make seem to be illegal. A lot of poeple want a Jabba faction. Leave him alone. I want to create my own syndicate.

Your comments to this is almost exactly what I want but I don't want it restricted to one location I want something a Smuggler can control.

Something for everyone.


What I really want is a little ratty fellow hidingamongst the trash cans in the alley behind the cantina. - now your talkin

Yep thats what I want

Someone that looks similar to Obi's diner friend in ATC only with a really bad personality and attitude.



I call all that (player made) content. You wna tto be a part of my organization?

No. I have a blue-glowie waver that allows me to hijack in order to prevent hijacking though.

We're not here to discuss features so much as we are to say one letter or another. Those being:

A

or

B
