Come on back! There are a fair number (myself included) of new blood to the server. It seems there has been a slight uptick in the vets coming back home. If you decide to, welcome!

Thanks. FWIW, I was able to place a house with patio last week and I saw numerous spots for 7x7. I never liked a Castle or Keep anyway so it's good. I had forgotten how much a PITA it was to unlock / relock a door but it's a small price to pay. IIRC, stack 3 tables one-atop-another on the side of y...

Thank you!

Good on you for coming to UO Second Age, it truly is a masterpiece. If you would ever like my personal tour (20 min) of UO and a free rune book, I would be delighted to hook you up with some gear too. That would be awesome - trying to recall all the info on mechanics, locations, strategies has been...

Hail and well met! Bard/lockpick can be good. You can grind the lvl4 dungeon chests(get a rune book for all of them) and make some pretty good gold, and magic items. Thanks! I'll definitely look into it. I had a newbie bard toon at one point in history but never did work it up. Now's my chance...

Is housing still an issue here? Just starting out for the first time and I'm already tired of stabling / inn log-outs. I haven't placed as of yet since I'm broke as a joke but it was certainly on my short list.... Are you talking mount or pack-animal? Pack-animals would have to be stabled but, if y...

Was on GL back in the day. I remember desperately trying to place larger than a 7x7 when the housing expansion hit and being lagged so badly I couldn't move. I was like 400 something in the help queue. I was in CSC then EoD (E*D) but neither were very large. We rarely PVPd and preferred to dungeon r...

So - as it happens, I was pulling an old backup onto a new PC and found some pics from the early 2000s of my UO chars. Recalling all the fun I had on GL back in the day, I Googled UO Player Run servers and this one popped up. The excitement logging into Britain for the first time in more than 10 yea...
