If you listen carefully and dont attract attention to yourself, you hear the plans of the various faction members to attack this and that faction base. It also pays to locate player marks (on Naritus, we have a player Bounty Hunter Guild with hundreds of marks and dozens of Bountyhunters) and guide in the hunter, especially against Jedi.
Have fun

Spellchecker does not hurt !
Hello?Well true to your word spellchecker doesn't hurt....who woulda guessed? I'm sorry its just when i get in a hurry my words are spelled quickly...anyway i meant....even though this may seem farfetched but like the conversations you've had with other people in the cantina, what they've seen like the one about the glitch that spawned hundreds of snakes that looted mandalorian armor(which ISN'T gonna happen....i should know....I've done my research for this game
Mandalorian although highly prized can only be made in a bunker i believe on Dant... don't quote me on that...) or the tale of the jedi mark that died unexpectedly. Or a guild memeber that overheard plans from an enemy faction to raid your guild members, and what was done afterwards to prepare or flee from the upcoming battle....this may seem farfetched and it may very well be, but thats what i'd like to hear the tales from the cantina that have actually happened to men and women of SWG...well thank you and look!
NO ERRORS!
THNK U SPELLCHEKR!!!

....ha....ha....ha.....right.....no..... lemme give you an example: this is from
DJEN_KYSHEK he writes....:
Bazaar sales are pretty good, but somewhat limited and often random. We all know the top sellers are Pet Munchies and Tatooine Sunburns, even though the odd Veronian Berry Wine or Synthasteak gets sold as well. Regardless, the bazaar represents something of a crapshoot: Sometimes you get a hit, sometimes you don't. Eventually everything seems to sell, but the rate is never a constant. Sometimes the entire inventory flies in a night, other times it takes a week.
Personal vendors are more a fustration than anything. My Mon Calimari BarWench sure is cute, but she is as daft as a one-way dead-end street. Sometimes she barks... Sometimes she just stands there and examines her nails. On the plus side, I have had much better vendor sales since scrapping my own shop, and merging with a successful Master Weapons Maker (VERY recomended).
None of the above has made me rich though. You might call me a struggling Chef at best. Between harvesters, factories and buying skills from npcs, I typically hover around the 20k mark in the bank.
Enter the Cantina scene: A squalid, motley affair filled with camo-wearing novice marksmen playing the Fizz, scantily clad Twi'lek dancers, random violent gunbattles, and a gaggle of powergamers sitting on the floor (as opposed to the handy chairs... I willl never quite figure that out). Overall I would say a pretty inviting scenario. One could just picture a bartender in the scene, passing out booze to the degenerates of the galaxy. So I did.
Snappy banter and quick wit is a more powerful weapon than any blaster. Before long I had a whole repetoir of product endorsments macroed up and was spewing them out to any that would listen:
"Rotgut with a crisp Bantha taste! That's how you might describe a Bantha Blaster! Slightly less painful than a punch in the face with only 3 times the after effects... Try one today!"
"If you enjoy the flavor of burnt petrochems (and who doesn't) you are going to LOVE the sweet acid burn of a Deuterium Pyro! Ask for it by name!"
"You there, the unkempt wookie in the back! You look like a guy who could use the 110% adreniline rush of a Tatooine Sunburn! Step on up... if you are brave enough!"
It went on like this for quite some time, and I realized that even WITHOUT charging for a single drink, I was making more money in tips than I ever had selling food the conventional way. And, I was educating the masses. You would not believe how many combat types would goggle at the stats on a Sunburn. Plus, by the end of the night I had probably sent over a dozen emails with my vendor location.
Now I can barely keep my cute little Mon Calimari BarWench stocked. I try to do the bar scene every night and I even save all of my normal experimentation failures (you know, the ones that have one lousy charge) and hand them out at the bar.
I just got Mixology III and need to get my factories churning out alcohol, as identical-run alcohols seem to be the required ingredient in all the new drinks. I can't wait to write the product slogans for my new drinks. I am sooooo enjoying Chef!
