Is there any way that a [vote command could be scripted to automatically open a browser window (or multiple tabs) to the voting sites?
Lots of people never use the forum or IRC, so it seems to me that any ingame reminder would be the best option.
Either way, I've noticed on my voting runs that Second Age has climbed quite a bit since the recent forum threads reminding people to vote!

Aye. I just noticed that myself, we haven't been in the top ten on JoinUO.com for a while now. It's good to see.
A vote command can be put in. I guess i will do that. I'll open it to the forum thread on voting which lists all the sites.
It's worth mentioning that the TOS for most of these sites forbid sending the user right from game to site, and that some votes will not be counted without a valid referrer.

Thanks guys
The [vote command went in this morn, it just takes you to the list of vote sites in forums, but seems legitimate to me.
I'm really happy to see us more towards to top of these sites. We do get a lot of players from the sites, especially on Gamesites200, and it helps with out google placement as well.
