  • Perhaps instead of a Castle Design Contest there should be a Veteran Reward of 15 years or more that allows for house customization of castles and keeps. That would not only please many that love design, make money for the company, but also encourag…
  • AmberWitch said: This was a particularly tough round for me. I really wanted to see new and different designs and I think I got what I was hoping for. I didn't want to see more of the same designs, standard castle, etc that we already have so…

  • BardrisCaller1 said: For me it came down to Homewood and The Township. I really liked others like Heorot but these two were the most aesthetically pleasing for my eyes. I ultimately chose to vote for The Township for one simple reason: I'm no…
  • I suppose the soul forge.
  • Latest update. The Ranger Abyss house has changed ownership. It is now owned by Uncle Buck. Two house teleporter tiles are in place. One takes you to the other house in Stygian Abyss, while the second tile takes you to a house in Luna.
  • i rather like Top Hats. I wouldn't mind seeing a Crown of Thorns as well. That could be cool. Hell, why not a cane with a Top Hat. Mace weapon I think. Would look damn dandy.

  • Finally. Congratulations to YT on winning the lottery for the house plot on the South Side of Stygian Abyss.
  • Victim_Of_Siege said: Yep, just ignore the haters @ Ben I say and do stupid s**t that only I find funny all the time. I wouldn't say yours are "really dumb" as I have laughed at them myself (maybe that isn't a good indicator though  ).  By t…

  • But, I have met many players from many other shards in real life while traveling to different places in the world the last few years. Some I initially met in the game and then looked up while in other countries if they were nearby, and a couple othe…
  • AtomicBetty said: these are really dumb. Try making your own. You might like it, and it could help someone laugh. I do not know how to describe Ultima Online. I am not a gamer. I do not play other games, but I do play UO. There is just so…

  • Cinderella said: I would like a liquid sunshine PURSE let us Mage's carry it instead of a shield or a flower basket Flower basket. Hell yeah! Why didn't I think of that. If we can carry a lantern, why not a flower basket. It can g…

  • Seriously, though. I would like to see - A Shepard's Bota. Would work just like the First Aid Belt, except store Greater Heal or Cure potions. Would be in your pack when you resurrect.
  • Hat of the Magi and Staff of the Magi are my favorites. They just made the game in the early days, and still work and look great on avatars inside gameplay. Overall though, I do not really care about artifacts in general, unless they fill a roll in …
  • What a beautiful morning in the South China Sea. Let's share a toon.

  • Meanwhile, what is the status of the auction now?
  • I stack rough granite blocks until they are at the right height for the visual I wish placed. After the object is placed and locked down on top of the highest rough granite block, I then remove the blocks. This works well along walls and doorways of…
  • I have found quite a few tips and tricks from this site... https://uohomedecor.com/furniture-2/ This is one of my favorites, a big screen tv.

  • I understand that. Thank you for sharing that perspective. Communication builds understanding.
  • Marge said: I'm thinking if I'm paying more (double?! no way) I don't want less storage I'd want more. You do not have to pay more. Those of us willing to pay more do not need more storage. Hoarding and displaying wares, that slow down s…
