sorry, was laughing too hard to notice it there. ty
New random tell from someone who saw my "Master Tailor" tag in Theed a couple of days ago.
Potential client: Dude - you're a master tailor?
Vesobe: That's right, yes. How can I help?
Potential client: Does that mean you can make clothes
*something in me rolls its eyes and refuses to do the right thing*
Vesobe: Sorry man, no. I bought the Master Tailor tag to meet chicks, I can't actually make anything at tall.
Potential client: Ha! Good call! I bet it works too! K, I'll look for one who can make stuff.
Didn't hear from him again.
Spent a good ten minutes just staring blankly at my monitor.
ok, here is a good one. (and by "good" I mean actually a really good customer!) I just got back in the game and had "costumer" up. Mostly dont like to run around with Master Tailor up. so I got the following tell
Customer- Are you a Master Tailor?
Me - Yep
Customer- Do you have time for a special order?
Me - well, a little time (RL hubby had just gone on a food run) Where are you and do you know what you want?
Customer- In Theed and I think so.
at this point...I had been reading this thread and was thinking "oh boy....this will be a live one" I was also in Theed so sent him a wp to the closest crafting station.
He came in (very prompt!) and said
Customer- I would like camo pants and a shirt to match my hair (bright teal blue)
I made what he needed, well, two versions actually......switching the colors back and forth a bit so he could try them on and see what he wanted... He tried 'em on, gave back to me what he didn't want. Also requested boots (in black of course) took those and then asked about the price. I was so delighted to have a first-back-in-game custom order that was so easy...I told him 2k (and told him the reason for it.....knowing exactly what he wanted...meeting me so quickly...respecting my time etc) That is when he started haggling on the price. but in reverse.
Customer- Tell you what, I make lots of money, you gave good service so here is 20k. Do you need a ride back to Theed or the spaceport or anything?
I thanked him profusely and told him he could patronize my shop or services anytime!
Needless to say, I want him to come back and bring many many like minded friends!!!!!

Well I just love making my clothes... and I'm torn from dropping it sadly due to the CU... and publish 18...
anyways... I too have had those experiences that many have been asking...
"make me something black..."
"why can't I wear this?"
"I want a bright red cloak... what? Not in the color palette?!"
etc.
I try to attract people to my shop on the bazaar...
alas... it's coming to an end... I wish they would fix the clothes/schemes...
Bye for now fellow tailors!

I got a weird guy today. He came into my shop (which it's set up yet - there's nothing for sale), walked up to me as I was crafting, and invited me to a group. All without saying a word. I said hello, asked what he was doing, and the only answer I got was another group invite. So I banned him from my shop, and still he stood outside my door until I had to go to another of my houses (right next door). He followed me into that one, so I banned him there too, then went to my other two houses to ban him there, and he followed me the whole way, inviting me to a group over and over. Finally I went back to my first house to craft some more, and he still stood at my door until I told him I would file a harrassment ticket unless he left. Then he finally did. He didn't say a word the whole time.
I don't get it. O_o
yea hehe, he was probably a noob, for some reason they like it when you come to where they are and group with them for no reason...

LOL! I've lost count how many times I've been asked to, "Make me look like Morpheus" or, "I wanna look like Neo in the Matrix!".
Hello McFly? Wrong story!!! *sigh* Wonder if SOE ever makes a Matrix MMORPG if people will want to look like Darth Vader?
Peace.

Hehe for me the keyword is "badass", wonder if that will get censored. ) In case you are wondering badass usually turns out to be yet another synonymfor black.
I'm pretty sure everyone who's ever been a Tailor has gotten this one. A lot. I started telling my customers that to me cool/badass is a pair of hot pink hawtpants. You'd be amazed how decisive they get once they hear that.
