Thread: This Clothing Decay Has Got to GO!!!
I dont know which one's of you pestered the devs to get this idiotic decay put it but its got to go.....
It has done nothing to improve business and only annoys people to the point they dont even bother with clothes....
Aside from the fact i had 15 BE garmets RUINED on the way to my vendor because some reds lag spawned around me, i had to make my self new clothes beacause mine desintigrated...now 10 hours later they too are already at -20% and i have spent 6K just insuring them EVEN THOUGH THEY STILL TAKE DAMAGE...
this is one tailor who wants this decay gone or at leasted reduced substantially. It has only hurt our profession IMO.

I'd suggest a little education. Yes we wanted decay. We wanted slow USE-BASED decay, that only happened when the person was ONLINE and actually WEARING THEITEM. We pestered the devs about that. It was their moronic idea to give us stupid decay on death instead. We tailors protested it before anyone else even heard about it.
It's really sad to me that you're a tailor, and should know better, and are still spreading that crap about how tailors got death decay added. We didn't ask for it. We didn't want it. We don't especially like it. It's better than no decay I guess, but it doesn't really help us that much. It unfairly targets combatants, which is something that we tried pointing out when the idea was first floated, but the devs didn't listen. I'm sorry if that sounds a little harsh, but I am so sick of pointing out to everyone that tailors did not push for death decay. At all.
Ah, and I'm sorry about your BE clothes, but that's why most of us craft while we're AT our vendors instead of before we get there.
Sheesh.
Well, you're entitled to your opinion. I guess the question is where were you when this was being discussed? Kinda easy to come in and be all negative after the fact and offer no useful alternative, but I guess that's the way a lot of people are. So you had to make a WHOLE new set of clothes. You are a tailor! lol, how hard can it really be?This has been discussed to death, but my personal opinion is that it doesn't seem to have either hurt or helped sales at this point in time. There may be some as you say that shy away from clothing because of decay, but there seems to be an equal number of people buying clothing repair kits and "extra" sets of clothing now so for me it has kinda balanced out. If there has been an overall decline in sales, I'd attribute it much more to all the new money sinks in the game (reduced mission payouts, the new player cities, the Jedi craze, and now vehicles and new pets this week). But I guess it does offer a very convenient excuse for those that can't hack the tailor biz.

You can still wear clothes at zero condition, and they still work with their bonuses. So whatever effect decay may have had, good or bad, it currently isn't having it. If people are fighting naked, they're evidently mis-informed about what decay is actually doing.
Which is a good clue that this guy is just a troll. He complained that his clothes disintegrated, but they don't. So everyone, please don't feed the trolls! 
What is the point to haveing clothes decay if they dont go poof at 0%?
Im not saying they should, cause I dont like this death decay crap, but really I dont get why if it doesnt do anything but go from 100% to 0% then why even let them decay at all? that doesnt solve the tailor not being able to sell clothes because you never have to buy new clothes problem.
god i really hate all you tailor people....you have to be the worst group in the game
maybe you can all be dry cleaners now and repair everyones clothes...

We love you too.
I'll never understand why people think that they should come into the TAILOR forums and flame us. Did you really need to post this last little bit of sunshine and happiness?
I know, I know, I shouldn't feed the trolls. But man I'm sick of it.
It is very obvious to me that the original poster probably isn't a tailor. A tailor would know all these things everyone pointed out, as they are a part of the profession. What a loser.
