tonights conversation was again, haggling over a 200 credit tee shirt. He had on full Tantel armor (add that pile up) and said he wanted some free clothes since he 'just spent 140k on a PA hall' LOL


Someone please give me a large mallet so I can hit people like this over the head.

I try not to post in these because 99.999% of the people I work with are awesome. But, the other day I had my first of these.


Starts out "can you make cloths"


Went on to "what's coolest?"


Finally got the inevitable "jacket, shirt, pants, gloves, boots, in black" didn't matter what kind, just had to be black.


Told him I had a few orders ahead of him, and I'd let him know when it was ready. That didn't stop the tells every 5-10 minutes "Done yet?"


Finally get to his order, whipped up one on the cheaper side since he didn't care and I was getting sick of the tells, and I think it only came out to about 4k.


Next we go through, "can you meet me in town?" Tell him I can't, I'm working with other people, so he asks what planet I'm on. Turns out "in town" meant he wanted me to fly from Talus to Naboo to deliver his stuff.


Send him the waypoint, he goes to the shuttle, then asks "Can I borrow 4500, I'm good for it?" Tell him nope it's all on the vendor and he has a week to get it. That was Saturday, it's still there. Asked a few friends if they want to take bets on it bouncing off the vendor this weekend, but strangely, nobody wants to take that bet...


About half way through it all, I was actually considering the idea it was another tailor screwing around, because it was like he was reading from a script. I decided not though, because he didn't want a duster. On the upside, counting the time in beta and after release, it seems I'll average this conversation once every 6 months, so I suppose that's not so bad

In this situation, I'd be tempted to find the absolute fuggliest outfit that could possibly be constructed while at the same time accurately following these parameters. Any ideas?

My most recent frustration involved trying to explain that the light orange fighter flight suits that are popular among the rebels on my server CAN NOT be purchased with faction points. As a rule I don't ever put anyone on ignore but this guy got very very close.
