  • I hope you will give strong consideration to also setting up a Mastodon account on the mstdn.games server, as EM Lyraa did. Join the fediverse! It’s a pretty cool place with a lot of interesting people. The vast majority of people are much more mell…
  • I didn't even try to sign up for the alpha testing stage.  I don't get much time to play anymore, so I figured it wouldn't be fair to tie up a testing spot (if I was selected) if I realistically wouldn't be able to do much. However, I just wanted t…
  • Thanks, Mariah!  I only searched for "113" and that didn't find the answer to my question so I gave up. Was a little befuddled that no one else had already asked. Ha.

  • The other thread is at   https://community.stratics.com/threads/public-access-points-to-ranger-and-warden-houses-in-the-abyss.422301/    The link in my first post above doesn't work.
  • The information in the other thread has been updated for just over half the shards now. Can anyone help with information regarding who owns the Ranger and Warden houses and where to find publicly accessible teleporter tiles to those houses on the fo…
  • Also, in case you wondered, if you use a name change token on the house owner, the name on the house sign will update immediately to that character's new name.
  • Was the chest in your backpack when you tried to disarm the trap? Or did you have it set on the ground?  If it was on the ground, how far away was your character when you tried to disarm the trap?  I think you can actually put a pretty good amount o…
  • If you do trade runs, you seem to get a SoT as the reward around 45% to 50% of the time. If you don't have the city banners yet, it might be worth your time to do them.   The banners are a bit of a gold sink (250k each plus the gold you spend filli…

  • I'm disappointed.  Just going to leave it at that.
  • This might have already been asked. If so, sorry for the duplication.  Here are two related questions I have about the new shard:  How much will it cost to transfer each character off the shard and to a different shard before the shattering occurs? …
  • I'm not concerned by the Kyronix' remarks about open-world PvP. I'm thinking it will be an opt-in type of system like order vs chaos and if you haven't opted in, you don't have to worry about it.
  • Petra_Fyde said: IF I've understood right (and I admit it's a big IF) This shard will give newer players a way to build a viable character, and a year to do it, without the difficulties they currently face on normal shards. Hard to get gear, …
  • The announcement today wasn't what I expected.  I am looking forward to finding out what the team comes up with.  It was good to see them excited about this new project. This year has been so hard on everyone that it's just a real pleasure to see pe…
  • Thanks for giving the correct link. I dropped off a slash when I copied the URL.
  • Bilbo said: Margrette said: There are money laundering rules/regulations that might come into play if EA/BS did that. I doubt they'd want to do it because of that.   This is the funniest thing I have ever read.  You really think that …
  • Garth_Grey said: The absolute easiest fix, sell gold in the In Game store, end of story. There are money laundering rules/regulations that might come into play if EA/BS did that. I doubt they'd want to do it because of that.  
  • Here is another possible way to thwart the spammer:  When you log a character into UO, it returns to whichever chat channel (if any) it was in when it last logged out, same as how it works today.  However, the first time you try to say something in …
  • I just checked on the other forum and people have been complaining since at least December 2011 about the spammer in Haven promoting his gold/item site. That's a whole lot of bad impressions about lack of rule enforcement in UO that he's made on pla…
  • Here are some of the things I would be doing: - Write a program to monitor chat and flag messages about selling gold. A real person would be checking the results periodically and entering the website addresses into a list to squelch in chat.  Befor…
  • UO has an obscenity filter that you can turn on to filter the language of other characters.  What I have never understood since "Avatar" started with his schtick is why the development team didn't just add a non-optional, universal filter to block h…
  • Fortis said: Every mmo games have this problem in chat about gold seller we should sadly move on  I disagree.  I think more should be done.  If the statistics in the official newsletter are to be believed, there have been 45 actions taken …
  • Remember how trial accounts used to be restricted to the Help channel and that was where you'd see the "Avatar" advertising spiel?  It was really disappointing when Endless Journey came out to find out that those accounts would not be limited to the…
  • When you make a new character using the Classic Client, Imbuing skill shows up in the "Magic" group of skills.  You don't use a tool when you imbue, so there's no crafting gump as there is with skills where you make something by using a tool.  Also,…
  • @popps, some basic information about doing the trade quests:  If you do use a moongate, then the quantity of the boards / ingots / granite / leather / dragon scales you are rewarded will be a consistent 20 times the number of lines in the order.  S…
  • Publish 81 back in 2013 included a substantial revamp for nonmeddable armor, including basing stamina loss on type of armor and # of pieces equipped; adding an inherent lower mana cost to all types of nonmeddable armor other than woodland armor; and…
  • It's been done before and really it IS the right thing to do.  Here's one recent example from when Hurricane Harvey hit Texas: https://uo.com/2017/09/01/turning-off-housing-decay-for-the-month-of-september/    This was the thread on Stratics discus…
