If UO is beginning to boer you like it did me, trya  change of pace, try somthign diffrent, I'm not sayign sell your account or nothing, but everyone needs a break somtimes.

I program or play Starcraft.

I'll buy it tomorrow sometime. Just found my Christmas money from last Christmas.

For me, I would have to say Fall and Winter. I do not like the summer. If we could do away with the insects.. I might like it then. I was painting the house today and was stung by a wasp on the side of my nose. I am going to buy some bug spray and kill them all.

Also, FOOTBALL!!

Well, with PGoH being my home for so long, I'd liek to start a branch of PGoH here on Imperium Boreas. This world is basically what it was just before the tram/fal junk started. This is in essence a PvP shard with a little RP, kinda like playing on Pac or LS.

Only dif is their are alot more items, colors. stat cap is 100/100/100 and their is no skill cap (at all)

For me personally. No. I played a GM on a player run shard awhile back for about 6 months. A LOT of work.. and since the shard is player run.. one day they may just shut it down. A lot of wasted time. So I stay away from anything that is not run by the company that made the game.

You know that was July 11th and not August 1st.... right?

I'd like to know why Balandar has 'Balandar Hides' at the top of that post.

It was an attempt to escape the warith of the female board readers. Apparently they except their place in the world as house wifes. :roll:

I'll have to look into buying it. I stopped playing DII after the first week.. Not much fun after you beat it and all you do is the same thing over and over.

Is it any good?

This forum is not for the IN GAME tavern Only for RP matters out of game.

We will be enabling the distributed backup system on all remaining shards with the exception of Balhae and Arirang, on Thursday, July 26th CDT. We estimate that this change will bring shard backup times down to approximately 15 minutes per shard. As a result, the amount of time required for shard maintenance, restarts, and ‘time warps’ may be narrowed to approximately 15 minutes in most cases.

Please note: As this backup system decreases the amount of time required for a shard backup, it will also decrease the amount of ‘warp time’ available prior to a maintenance period. We urge that players keep this in mind when playing before a scheduled maintenance period.

We will announce a release schedule for Balhae and Arirang in advance of their activation.

SB site! What SB site? oh no! haven't you taken ill to the dreaded SBfever as well as others?

Oops, did I let that slip?

Housing decay has now been reinstated on all shards, to become active following their next downtime. The schedule for these maintenance periods is as follows:

East Coast shards, with the exception of Chesapeake, experienced an unscheduled downtime at 5:00 pm CDT, July 24th, and the housing decay became active at this time.

It was also posted on July 16th , I posted it in another thread here some where.

Dont' you know you are suppose to live and breath the entire UO web page, tsk tsk.

*runs and hides*

Tis hard to live and breathe UO when I am working on the SB site.

It was posted on the fyi on update.uo.com early today. Around 10am CDT.

As a reminder, we will be monitoring all public shards once they have received Publish 12 to see that the publish is running optimally before we will activate veteran rewards. Please note that this means players will not be able to choose rewards immediately once the publish is received. The rewards system will be activated systematically on pre-determined shards, and we will post a schedule once it is determined. We are working to see that this delay will be as short as possible, and we appreciate your patience.

There is a bug where new topics will not show up in the left column. (The blue round star graphic). Instead click on the view new posts link on the main index page. If you wish them no longer to be marked as new, you can click on the link at the bottom of the page that says 'Mark all posts as read'.

It has been pushed back to 6pm CDT.

Due to a departmental meeting, in-game support will be limited from 3:00 pm - 6:30 pm CDT Monday, July 23rd. International Game Master support will not be affected.

In order to provide better support coverage, the unscheduled downtime set for 2:00 pm CDT on the East Coast and Central Shards (with the exception of Chesapeake) has been delayed, and will now occur at 6:00 pm CDT.

Thank you for your patience, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

9500 scrolls be enough to get the job done?

Plenty. Doesn't take nearly that many.

Tomorrow afternoon (July 24th) at 11:00 pm CDT, we will be reactivating house decay on all shards. Houses currently marked as condemned will be uncondemned before the decay is turned back on, and will not collapse when the system is reactivated. Please note that once the decay rate is turned back on, all players will need to refresh their homes as they normally would.

For information on housing decay rates, see http://guide.uo.com/house_6.html.

Does this include rewards?

Anyone play Starcraft Broadwar?
