    Do you know the old saying... neither a borrower or a lender be?

    Yeah, it drives me crazy too. That's why I avoid Glenumbra as if it's a radio-active hazard.

    I have characters I play frequently across all alliances, this is the ONLY banker that makes me cringe every time. I want to kill her, even if it means I can never access the bank there again...

    I wouldn't mind seeing some variety in their dialogue to be honest. Especially hers. She sounds so snotty and supercilious, it makes you want to smack the crap out of her. LOL

    That said, it might take some time to make that happen, if at all. Voice acting isn't generally cheap, and it's certainly not something that can be done quickly in most cases, unless the person doing the voice work happens to be part of the staff.
    Resistance is not futile! Say no to the Greed Collective™. Boycott Crown Crates.

    This is why I do my crafting in Bangkorai instead.

    Totally disagree. I like hearing the different things the NPCs say as I run through town. I love the flies buzzing, roosters crowing, all the ambient noise. It is brilliant and immersive.

    This is an MMO......take your immersion somewhere else please.

    5 things that are DIFFICULT to say when jacked up on Skooma:
    1. Innovative
    2. Preliminary
    3. Anesthetist
    4. Cinnamon
    5. Chrysanthemum

    5 more things that are VERY DIFFICULT to say when you're jacked up on Skooma :
    1. Specificity
    2. Rhipidistian-Amphibian Transition
    3. Anti-constitutionality
    4. Transubstantiation
    5. Spectrophotometer

    9 things that are downright IMPOSSIBLE to say when you're jacked up on Skooma:
    1. Sorry, but Khajiits are not really my type.
    2. Thank you, but I won't make any attempt to dance, I have no coordination and I'd hate to look like a Orc.
    3. Oh, I couldn't. No one wants to hear me sing Argonian karaoke.
    4. Nope, no more Skooma for me.
    5. I must be going home now as I have to raid in the morning.
    6. I'm not interested in fighting you.
    7. Enriched Jerk Rodent? No thanks, I'm not hungry.
    8. Where is the nearest waste pond? I refuse to hurl in the street.
    9. Good evening, Constable. Isn't it lovely out tonight?

    Try banking in Mournhold "I erect the spine of welcome. Welcome to the bank of Mournhold blah blah blah blah." over and over and over. Yeah I'd like to erect my fist into your face.

    Think I'm becoming a bit racist against lizards because of that guy. I won’t even bank with him anymore. I always go to the Dunmer bank guy instead.

    The real dilemma is that; Powdered doughnuts are overpowdered, the chocolate doughnuts are too chocolaty, and the coconut crunch doughnuts have more coconut than all other doughnuts. This is OUTRAGEOUSLY unfair to other doughnuts!

    So from now on, all you special snowflakes get is nasty plain doughnuts...enjoy!

    Yeah annoying. I got the addon that shuts them all up. Now just need to do something about that blacksmith hammer..."ding, ding, ding, ding....ding, ding, ding, ding..." I have to mute it when I'm crafting because it distracts me so much I forget what I'm even doing! lol

    Congratulations! You have just won the I-made-the-dumbest-comment award.

    It was sold upon the premise of being TES first and an MMO second.


    OT: I have resorted to using the mute button when banking or blacksmithing.

    I was so happy when I unlocked Stormhaven, because I didn't have to deal with the ****ing banker in Daggerfall. I don't mind NPC voicing, because it's immersive. But that one line repeating over and over again is really a cringe-worthy moment.

    Must be new to games. Every game is like this with the NPCs repeating the same phrase(s) every time. Yet EVERY game you people make the SAME complaint. Toughen up cupcake....it's a game. Put on some music when in town. Lower the voice volume....many things you can do on YOUR end. It's the nature of the beast and some just have no clue as to what that nature is.

    My wife is complaining about the DF banker, and she won't touch an MMO. But her computer is 20 ft away from mine and it's driving her crazy as well.

    Oh and the "damn dog"-ambient sound when crafting in Daggerfall.
    This is an MMO there shouldn't be such things in there, very simple as it is not immersive not anything when the same face repeats the same sentence three times a minute.

    I actually brought up this EXACT audio clip back in beta as being too frequent while crafting. It drove me up the wall, too bad they didn't feel like "quest reminder" frequency should be turned down a little (at least around areas one spends a lot of time in such as crafting spots).
