Is this the shard for me?

Wow, i was just thinking about UO and how nothing i have played since came close to the experience.
I played from beta for about 3-4 years straight, then probably quit and came back on and off for another 3 years....
Is this for me?
From reading some posts it sounds as if this was just like the real UO... are there big differences? how does a new player earn money to build a character (which im assuming still revolves around magery and needing regs which cost $$$)
Are there alot of people online? Can you buy and place houses? Still mine and craft as you could in UO? How is the red population? RP Reds or griefing reds (does a miner north of minoc have to worry about griefing reds????)
I have so many questions, many im sure i could find on this site but being at work that probably isnt the best option...
Im really just looking to hear from any old UO vets if this is just like the old school UO ... im talking about the experience and rush and sense of accomplishment the game gave.
speaking of accomplishment does earning skills feel rewarding or are they cheaper than they were... (I still remember the night i GM magery for the first time...)
Can you play multiple chars? What do you start with?
Man, i have a million questions but i will cut this short for now.
Im really excited about finding this site but alsmost dont want to get my hopes up.... Im not kidding when I say UO was the best game i ever played.
Looking forward to some feedback/comments in this thread!
Thanks!
