  Since there's a 14th year vet reward that produces server transfer tokens (the chosen server of the shield transfer item). maybe try to implement that in the form of a gate (like moon gate or possibly a spell).
  
  If you allowed players to buy "The high seas" and the "time of legends" in token form so we could sell them on vendors that would be cool... Also, if we could buy 30 days game time in token form so we could sell it on vendors it'd provide a nice f2p friendly habitat supported by paying players. (high seas has like 25 extra bank slots)

  I was recently reading some old computer gaming magazines from the late 1990s, and the UO devs were talking about future plans to put in a portal/gate feature to allow you to hop between shards to play with your friends or do special events, without having to uproot everything to move to a new server (or create a bunch of characters scattered across multiple shards that never interact with one another).
  
  I'll try and find it again (it was an online archive of magazines), but basically, they wanted everybody to be able to travel around and play with one another and then return back to their home shard, or just "home".
  
  It was a great idea, and I've posted about it a few times before - right now, you can move between shards if you have the money or have been around 14 years, but that movement is limited to $20 a trip or a few times a month with the token, so it's restricted to very few people.  Their idea was being able to pop out for an evening (maybe you met somebody on a message board, or somebody was holding a party) and then come back home after a few hours.

  Right! it seems like a fitting feature for modern UO osi. the ability to go into the lower part of boats (lower deck/hull) or House boats would be very appealing too.

  Shard shields were very detrimental to every shard not named Atlantic
