Last night was brutal! I've taken to wearing my tailor tag for a while I decompress from the frustration of having a half dozen chefs a night demanding free schematics rather than buy my products as a BE. But it seems that the ID changes has everyone in a clothing-buying mood, and with the crafting bug (honestly, how did that get by testing?) made for a brutal evening.


You want a low cut top? You know what you'd look great in?a noob shirt, lol.


Seriously, busiest night in weeks and I still sold less clothing than normal. I felt like an idiot explaining to people all the stuff that I couldn't craft, and I got the feeling that most of them didn't even buy it. "Yea, sure, whatever Arthur,are you sure you aren't a noob/rollseyes". Grrr, I think my rep definitely took a hit last night. Lets see, what tag will I wear tonight? Perhaps "Novice Medic"? hahaha.

I was affected by this yesterday as well. I'm on Chilastra. Just logged in and everything seemed to be fine for me. I crafted a: Pattern Slip Dress, Luxurious Gown & a Low Cut shirt (which I could not craft yesterday)


Is everyone else noticing the change of the fix?

business was a bit slow for me yesterday on wanderhome. only had 1 BE order, and the rest were "make me look cool" orders. Heh, i'm seriously running low on unique "make me look cool" ideas. Oh yeah, i had a lady buy like 20k worth of lingerie/skimpy clothing (you gotta buy a lot of clothing from me in order to waste 20k, especially when my hotpants are only 375).

Ugh I had such a headache after 4 hours last night i turned my tag off! I'd had ebnough of that bug with identical items and then with everyone who'd just got IDd asking me "Can I have a flourescent Yellow (or insert appropriate matching colour) pair of pantaloons and flex form shirt?"


Errrr Helloo can you say IDpublish! NOT tailor publish!


SO annoyed especially when the first I noticed of this bug was when a regular came up to me with 2 schematics and all the leathers to make all 6 and lo and behold got one out and then the bug struck....Suffice to say he wasn't best pleased and it made me look dumb, I had to log out and check the forum to see if anyone else had this problem!


A night to forget for me, I hope that bugs been quoshed as I haeva big backlist of orders now to complete.>


these publishes need a bit more test time methinks

Yes I had a plan to sit in the ID tent and sell clothes to people wanting a change. The plan was working well within 2 minutes of enting the tent I was asked, well in fact I was asked what colour I could change someones hair !!!!


I know I have tailor above my name but I swear some people refuse to believe its true they believe I can make armour and change stats and your appearance. I get it quite a lot I wonder sometimes if people just search cant find what they want and figure they just bug the tailor anyway.


Oh right the story, well anyway after explaining that I cant change someones hair colour, (took at least 3 goes seems the word no was lost on him) I got my first order. Well i was asked if i would make a dress jacket in blue and swap it for someones red jacket, erm its another thing a I get a lot being asked to swap my clothes for some elses. I think people miss the concept of being a tailor I can make clothes and so why would i want theirs ? Of course if I had made the item for them and they wanted to change thats a different story.


Anyway after explaining to them and pointing out that I run a business and not a bring and buy sale we agreed a price for the item, it was then i became aware of a tailor bug. I could not make the item in fact I could not make any items from the factory stock. I hate to think of the sales I lost, but rather than waste any more time i logged off. I figured basic shirts and casual shoes where not going to be requested hehe.

The thing is nobody trusts the profession tags any more, because people with some uber pvp template run around wearing their novice scout tag or something. Every day when i sit at the starport with my droid out taking orders, i usually get a small line forming. If i'm REALLY heavy on orders, i sometimes don't notice it until its like 6 or 7 people long, all of them thinking i'm getting buffs, when my advertisement says "Get outfitted while waiting for a buff from ________." Then i get the "are you gonna buff me already?" and i say "Hmm, i think a nice muscle shirt would make you look buff. or how about a skinsuit?" and they ALWAYS reply, "wow, i didn't know tags actually had a meaning these days" or somethiing a bit ruder (which i just put on ignore) Its sad but true, i'm the only Master Tailor in Wanderhome who has a buff line

It was too busy for me to keep up with, i hope its just a fast phase, cos if it remains this busy il need to shut down some vendors and concentrate on keeping up with just tailoring / fashion padded. one day like that now and then is neat,yesturday i took in more credits than the last two weeks together, but it was selling faster than i could re-stock items, so hopefully i canrestocktoday its rare i go to bed without replacing all items sold throughout the day, but last night i had to
