Voting for UOSA (2016 Update)
Re: Publicizing the Server and helping players find us
LRC suit = Lower Regeant Cost suit and the 100 part means %100 lower reg cost on the suit. It would brake Second Age entirely and I would never play this shard again.
Macroing is allowed and it is a must to be able to have the time to play this shard with a full time job. It takes days to macro and it will weed out the people who are going to stay and the people who are just going to play for maybe days or weeks. Giving people 7x GM characters at the start would brake the entire shard and I would never play UO again as this is the only legit server I know of.

Re: Publicizing the Server and helping players find us
googling just about anything UO related usually brings up SecondAge as one of the first results

Re: Publicizing the Server and helping players find us
I have a bit of code that puts a pop up asking to vote or enter the forum I used on a vb board, It could be used on bb I think? It uses a cookie to remind users to vote every seven days
happy to share if wanted

Re: Publicizing the Server and helping players find us
Maybe someone can just write a program to automatically vote for us a million times? Joking of course, but given the nature of some of the top shards (by vote) it seems that either they are cheating or that people just really really suck. Start all skills at GM??? How could that possibly be fun?

They probably do vote rewards, basically buy the votes from the players with shinniesWonko the Sane wrote:Maybe someone can just write a program to automatically vote for us a million times?

Re: Publicizing the Server and helping players find us
I'm curious how OSI view these emu shards. Have they never tried to shut them down like the mpaa and riaa have tried with movies and music?
Re: Publicizing the Server and helping players find us
Is any traffic coming from mmorpg.com and this sig?

If so, maybe others could add the same sig, in other forums too.

Re: Publicizing the Server and helping players find us
Been voting every day so far. Even though I've only been here 3 days ^.^ Lovin the shard.
But I noticed that we have way more players than votes, and I don't understand why people don't vote. It doesn't take much effort, and it's the best way to bring new players here.
And when we really start climbing up the ladder, it may get people from other shards to come here just to see what all the fuss is about.
Voting at least once a day can make a huge difference!

Re: Publicizing the Server and helping players find us
The original experiment of UO was an abysmal failure and stayed a failure until OSI implemented a choice for people to not participate in PvP. It is no accident the majority of mmorpg players choose not to PvP or choose to do so in only very limited ways which cost them virtually no resources, people do not like to work for hours to build up resources just to have them taken from them in seconds with almost no recourse.jackshephard wrote:The number one server on the top 200 is a pk free sever?
Thats just sad.
When consequences for behaving badly are little to none, most people will behave badly. UO was concieved and, for the first few years, run on the premise that people would form a society which would have real consequences for bad behavior thus limiting it to the few hardcore players. In essence this would have meant player run quests and events to limit the baddies negative impact. Due to limitations of UO, MMORPG's and games, in general, that type of society was just not possible.
So it does not suprise me the number 1 server is non PvP or that most people do not PvP in anything like a winner take all environment.
Re: Publicizing the Server and helping players find us
But if you look closer, most of those top UO shards have nowhere near our playerbase. If our members would just vote we would be #1 instead of them...Gafron wrote:The original experiment of UO was an abysmal failure and stayed a failure until OSI implemented a choice for people to not participate in PvP.

Re: Publicizing the Server and helping players find us
I played on an awful Australian server (entirely for the ping) that was rewarding players to vote. So people just logged in, voted, and logged out. If it was anywhere in the top 100, it wasn't because the server was enjoyable.

Re: Publicizing the Server and helping players find us
good read!! In so many ways it seems MMOs have only gone down hill. I don't know of any other MMO that gives UO's freedom to do as you want. This actually creates content in itself, instead of developers constantly trying to keep people on the treadmill with more expansions. Le sigh, I just can't see how gaming companies have missed this obvious flaw for a decade now.
