By what rule are we obligated to retroactively fix the results of a mechanic?

Sorry I thought the whole point of this shard was to be T2A accurate. Then a huge gaping error like this comes to light and its just brushed under the rug.

Seriously, the nerve of some of these a**holes and the way they talk to the GMs/Admins here makes me f**king sick. I swear, if anyone needs to get f**king slapped it's a**holes like that.

Navigate your terrible self to Google and look up the origin of the term 'Don't look a gift horse in the mouth' you ungrateful turd.


A "huge gaping error" that wasn't noticed or any concern at all for 4 years?
Right, moving on.

Don't lump me in with that crowd.
I'll click every damn thing in this game. The only reason I even use Razor (or started) was so I could stop bugging my guild-mates to cast Night Sight on my non-mage warrior dude. The more I use it, the more boring the game gets, so yes, I'm in deep but I'm trying to avoid automated UOSA.

I cut bandages manually when I need them and anyone who cuts bulk by hand instead of setting it for overnight with Razor, is failing at UOSA. ;p

It is, and the solution is to prevent any further housing in the Britain swamps, which corrects the inaccurate mechanic of being able to place within the Britain swamps. This does not imply that we must also remove existing housing, which is will have been placed before the mechanic is corrected.

Cherry.
Hold on to those 'yet to be grandfathered' swamp castles while you've got them people!!!

Once/if this is corrected, I think there's enough era-accurate do-gooders here to buy out the existing homes and throw Re-deed Parties.

Hail yeah, UO hippies unite, bro.

PS: sorry for raging earlier, I guess a nerve was struck.

Just buy them out for way more than they're worth and the ones who refuse get bulldozed (deleted) :P
"way more"... lol. Evidently you've never been the subject of eminent domain. It's usually at market rate... and the seize-er gets most of the say in that, since they never actually reach the market.

If true though, nice find. Surprising this was overlooked for so long.
