UO Second Age

Granted, if you want to keep playing the game "your way" and not learn the 'tricks of the trade', then by all means, keep dying. Even when I was brand spanking new on this server, I didn't die to PK's simply by having a recall macro, keeping Reflect up, and keeping Reactive Armor up. Toss in the hiding skill for when your EV is working or your provo'd mobs are fighting and its even harder for the PK's to get you. If you're really smart, you'll make a recall/invis macro. You'll search the forums for the guides on how to survive. Then you'll hardly ever die and do quite well.

....or you can keep beating your head against the wall doing the same exact things that keep on getting you killed expecting divine intervention to change something and blame everyone else for your own insanity.

Cheers!

Then take a look through posts from mid 2010 to present and you'll realize that 1) This server wasn't always like this but 2) It has been shitty for the past few years, it got steadily worse, and you're in love with the past. It's gone, never to return here.

I saw a thread a while back that asked what the best thing players ever did on UOSA was. No exaggeration: the best thing I ever did here was quit playing very shortly after a recent comeback. I saved myself from tons of potential useless typing and emotion over playing a broken game and arguing with dummies and the emotionally challenged.

The second best thing I ever did here was record an RPV of quitting, trashbarreling all my loot, and demolishing my main's house (I gave the others away to a friend to prevent IDOC parties). Then sharing it with UO fans across the internet far and wide to spare them the agony of coming here and learning the hard way what hundreds of bitter ex-UOSA players already know. Here it is if you care to watch it: http://www.2shared.com/file/LuF_ccaG/Io ... _1726.html

I'll continue to share that. Staff can move trees and level land here, they can censor posts and ban users here, but they can't do a damn thing about the rest of the internet. Word of mouth built this place, and it can do the opposite as well. Move on and spread the word, Jellico.

assume every player is a pk, if you cant fight use a table/stool drop macro to buy time to fire off a recall macro

just remember revenge is best served cold
