Trusted Crafting - Rate Your CrafterFollow

Please identify people you know who are willing to craft for others. While crafters are welcome to self-identify, the big feature of this post will be to detail the good and bad comments leveled against people who are offering their services.

This will depend heavily on y'all as any kind of community-system like this requires the input of the users before it can really be made use of.

I'll go through and pull the names of people who have been listed as scammers, when they were listed, and by whom. I'll link posts where I can. Remember! This thread isn't here for your grievances -- it's here to identify people who are trustworthy and who will work with you to get things crafted. While the bad will indeed be listed it's not being done to villify them - only to let the rest of the community know who not to give money to. ^^

All crafters will start as Neutral Crafters. You'll be listed under your craft and with your appropriate level. If you have multiple crafts, just post about it, and I'll list you accordingly. If you get posted about in a good way, you get listed as a Good Crafter; posted about for scamming or just not performing, and you're a Bad Crafter. Simple, ne?


If you get listed here and rip someone off, expect to be blacklisted by everyone. Forever.

Well, the only craft I have so far is cooking at lv 50, but should that be helpful to anyone, lemme know. You supply ingredients, and I'll synth it. Just make sure it's within my level range ;)

~Quickening

No prob, Cary; You're in my shell, so I'll rate you as trustworthy.

>> Clothescrafting 72
>> Leathercrafting 25

Those are the only notable crafts, as I have most others leveled to 10, but hardly worth mentioning.

Also, I will personally vouch for Melbolt, He actually helped me get my Subjob quest items when I first started playing back in March. He's a Class act, A++ All the way.

I'll vouch for zoey and wingchild to be in the trustworthy (way beyond most people trust) group. I have tried crafting and it bores me to tears so I am just a consumer of such things.

i havent been on in awhile but i will vouch for Zoey also

i remember doing BCNM's with her and she would make tons of potions and ethers for all of us with little in return

very trustworthy

for your high skill crafting needs:

Brunnhidle (sp?): leathercraft 100+2, many other crafts @60
Missileslacker: cooking 95+, may be higher now
Kaofang (sp?): alchemy 93+2 4 or 5 months ago, probably higher now

sorry about spelling of names, /sea all kao or /sea all brun should find them

^^ Wingchild 69 woodworking now id like to fix people lu rods but having a hard time fixdng them. Also if u have the materials ill HQ for any one.

Thanks wing ^^

I would like to nominate some of my friends,

Gooch who is Alchemy 53?, and Woodworking 60+ I think he is also smithing 18.

Cinner who has a high cooking skill (don't know it off the top of my head.) I know she has smithing up to iron ingot stage as well.

Solinvictus who also is a cook, (I often give him my yag drink, items that I log for.) I think he's going into bone next.

Valflux who does clothcraft in the mid 40's.

/wave Jimmi!
/wave Slyph!
/wave Wingy!
/wave Khamii!

-Zoey

Roadsterw - Japanese Woodworker Level 100(+2) - Synthed a cursed Kabuto for me FREE <3 <3 This guy is the man for real. Great Crafter.

Kaofang - North American Alchemist Level 100(+2) - Pretty much the only guy on the server that synths Hakutaku clusters for my linkshell. Has lost one out of the 30 or so we've sent his way. Great businessman, highly reccommended.

Chong - North American Bonecraft Level 100(+2) - For ALL your scorpion harness +1 needs =P Chong's a great guy, he's synthed me one harness, and members of my linkshell 1 or 2. has no failures, and is very reputable.

Liesse - European Cook Level 90something(+2) - Our linkshell chef =) Very trustworthy.

Celdina - Swedish Woodworker Level 63(+1) - I've bought hundreds of thousands of gil worth of arrows from Celdina. Very trustworthy, also a linkshell crafter.

Brunnhilde - Japanese Leatherworker Level 100(+2) - Done a ton of business with this guy. He's very reputable, and OFTEN HQs things. Has made Dusk Trousers and Tarasque Mitts +1 for members of my linkshell.

Updates performed; reversed ranking so now the top crafters are listed at the top of the list (more intuitive); added nationalities where not North American, will add NAs later if requested. Good info - we're building quite the phonebook of crafters.

Also, rate-ups done for every participant of the thread, as Carbuncle's forum seems to have it's very own karmatroll zipping around. ^^

bump

/wave Zoey

~Quickening.

Raised goldsmithing to 27.x

I plan to be at least lvl 50 by christmas. It's just a wee bit expensive, and seeing things break hurts ><

I raised my goldsmithing from 27 to 34.1 on Sunday. I craft every sunday, and maybe a little, but not much at all during the rest of the week.

I plan to get to 35 before sunday, and hopefully sunday I can get to 40.

My leathercraft is up to 46 now, and hopefully I'll have it a few more lvls higher in the next few days.

Woot 73 .4-.7 woodworking lost track lol i only see about 1-3 .1's a day. still rising thou.

Gold 21 dont plan to lvl anymore for awhile until deep into my arch sceem of nothingness.

bone 7 and will be brought to 48 as soon as woodworking is 83

fishing 28 :) any one with fishing over 40 is a god in my book ^^

also 3 points up for melbolt hes very helpful and has damn near the whole cook book memorized. and if he dosent hell look up a recipe b4 you even get the chance to tell him "its ok you dont have to do that"

And 1 point for sean hurry to 80 ><, lol

Edited, Tue Dec 7 22:54:45 2004 by Jrunk

74.1 and rising, lol craftinf is damn near all i do its just fun.

I kinda want to get a haubergeon synthed if anyone knows a high lvl Blacksmith(preferably 90+) with good reputation ^^

Wing I can assure you Khamii is very trustworthy. She's my old LS mate. Heck I'd loan her my leaping boots without worry about getting them back.

Oh and my craft levels are:
Clothcraft: 55 Cooking: 39 hmmm...the rest prolly aren't worth mentioning.

Edited, Tue Dec 14 14:00:59 2004 by Nezrah

Cooking skill is now at lvl 55 ^^
