My input on bank checks

This states that UO:R was release on april 13, 2000

http://www.uoguide.com/Bank_Check

This states that bank checks were implemented march 8, 2000

particularly what im saying is bank checks were created 1 month before UO:R thus bank checks are t2a accurate barely but they are in my opinion

if im wrong please provide me with a few links proving that

There used to be bank checks here, not sure why they were removed, but was probably for a good reason... perhaps someone else can elaborate more on that.

cut off date here is 1999

Our cutoff date is in November of 99. Damn felix beat me by like a second. In the spirit of him I will call everyone here nerds.

Hi KevinFord11289,

Firstly, thanks for your research into this, and helping to make our shard more accurate.

UOSA seeks to emulate November 23rd, 1999, the date of Publish 1.

Based on that date, I believe bank checks fall out of the UOSA Era.

However, in UOSA we can use House Deeds instead of bank checks, as House Deeds have the following features:
1) House Deeds can be sold back to the Real Estate broker at full price.
2) House Deeds are newbied. They are unstealable if kept in the top level of your pack. If you are not Red, a House Deed will stay with you if you die (and not drop to your corpse).

(End Note: A shard veteran should step in here if I've got these details wrong)

[Rick Scarf]

Zelek is correct on all counts.

if u want to say that then why do we have runebooks when they came along in early 2000 if u want to cut off at 1999 then do that dont add things and claim to be era accurate

They were added in early 2000 just prior to the great britainia cleanup for the purpose of reducing item count on the shards

Runebooks were added in Publish 1, on the Shard's cutoff date of Nov 23. 1999
