UO Second Age

I consider the Nov 23, 1999 patch issue more a slight incline plane made out of sandpaper than a slippery slope.

Stay a little longer. I almost gave up too for the exact same reasons until I realized I could fight back and win. I plan to start a heavy APK group once I get settled. I've already killed a couple reds myself. I used to be scared of those red griefers, TG, but now I realize how bad they actually a...

Ghost wrestling.

Winner stays, loser gets booted from the dungeon!

I had a 52k hardware modem, so I was pretty fast, and an overclocked 800 MHz T-bird. I think I started on a Pentium 233 MHz box, and that had a crappy software modem. I used that box and Netzero to dual client once I upgraded.

EZ Macros ftw.

Generic Player, do you frequent the Trash Talk forum?

Please tell me you do.

NEW is not a failure thanks to our unofficial Minister of Propaganda, Pirul.

I see NEW now has a Deputy Minister!

Thanks, Kain.

Je compri francaise, bien, mais j'ai ne parle rien. (or something like that :lol: ) I've seen several come and go, but I think the most active is Joueur Moyen. Except Joueur forgot most of the French he once knew, and is not French! He's just an average player, lol. (That's random blue to you tough...

I used to step back and hide or invis when I saw them coming, and then watch the festivities. Good times!

I remember GMing my fighting skills by sparring...without healing macros and 100% attended. When I got here and proposed a sparring session, I got a very low turnout due to the gain by sparring here. :roll: Bone Knights was faster. That's where I used to go, but that was in part for the entertainme...

In any case, there is no mention of a date, (both are posted in late 2000, but who knows when/if the double hit existed). I find it interesting that nobody w...
