I just want to log on and fight, and log off. Or log on and farm something while fighting off pks and randoms in the same area, and log off. I don't want to have manage my time between other shit because I can only have 1 account on. As a new player from another shard, the idea of building my 7 pvpers 1 at a time, is gross. I would never do it. It's going to be fucking required that my computer is on 24/7 macroing. So with my 600w psu, I'm paying like 30$/month to macro on UO.

Having multiple accounts helps people get started and catch up also. Newbs suck, everyone needs to be good so the field can benefit from their presence. The only downfall to multiple accs in my own mind is the long term affect on the economy. But there is no issue with that here as of now. The economy seems just fine.
sounds like you have too much to do to be playing uo, and the money your computer spends,you should get a job to pay that hefty bill. you dont seem to have any respect for how things were and what era accuracy means to us old timers, (only speaking for myself at this point). yes I love the ability to macro and having 3 accounts is way cool plus the ability to play them at the same time is mind blowing. However it cannot last forever, you see sitting in houses macroing three acounts, or using them for your safety net or whatever will eventually do to this shard what trammel did to uo. which is probably why this is being discussed and given the choice i know i would opt to play 1 account per ip, with special permission for a second family member. even more, i would gladly pick the 5 charaters and move them all onto 1 account and have the others wiped to conyinue on here in this awesome haven for the t2a deprived.

i played t2a just like you did.

ive played uo for 12 years, just like everyone else.

i dont need a safety net, or trammel or anything like that. but i play to pvp, the changes that affect my enjoyment of the game are the changes that affect the pvp.

and i think this will negatively affect pvp.

Unfortunately any severe IP limit under current circumstances would just not work. I don't want to get in to too many details, but the realities of freeshards come with this drawback to playing on the server.
