I've not run into that much, but this proved a valuable advertising tool to me, so I thought I'd share it in case some of you didn't know.


What you do is compile a list of all your top-end stuff, and put the stats and price on paper. Get out of SWG and copy it all down to your notepad in whatever fashion you want to present it in (I put my prices in too). Put any other info they need to know, list a waypoint (not that they'll read that, they'll ask you to send it to them anyway), then select all and copy. Under the options screen in the game, go to the controls section and select keymap. There is a "chat" tab, and if you scroll down, there is an option to copy into the chat window. Set this to whatever key you choose and use it to copy into emails to anybody who asks you about your weapons. It saves you a lot of time responding to every tell you get. It's a nice quick way of telling people what your product quality is and how much you charge for it.


Hope that helped,

Erm, well, the option is to "paste" rather than copy, but I think you get the idea...

that is not a bad idea... but since we all know they want stats on some more rare weapon or something you just dont keep in stock much, how about this method.


Copy every weapon stat for all that you make and stock into your afk.... then do the following


Cust: "what are your stats on <insert anything including armor, foods, and vehicles>"


me: /afk


me:"what was that?"


....and let the afk do the rest

Memorize your weapons. Only three stats of import in most guns damage speed and range, or wound depending on the gun.


Eventually you will just learn to remember this stuff. I prefer to also keep reference gun materials on me. There are about ten weapons people ask about if you keep those on you. Not only can you quote the stats but sell them on the spot. Who wants to write down the stats on fifty different weapons.
