define "this"
are you talking about 1 IP per account or taming
and could somebody please close this thread haha
by "this", I mean what I quoted...thought that was obvious but maybe not. Like Matron, I was also under the impression you needed to be targeted or physically hit by a monster in order for your pets to attack while under the all guard me command.

You wouldn't have mym, -3-, +-,or any of the other pvp guilds here if you do that and while they are not the life of the server, it takes all kinds of people and you need to cater to those of the "now now now" generation of gaming and adhd.
I agree, 1 account per IP would be a great addition, but to get quality you need quantity as well on free shards.

Times like this I ask myself "What would OSI do?"
Personally I would be fine with one account, and I believe it would be better for the server overall.. not to mention it would be far easier to tell how many people actually play on this server, and it might drop the suspicion that I am Joshua Lee
So what would OSI do?
-Make the hard choice, and give everyone some really cool gift or rare to make up for screwing everyone who is opposed to change.
Sounds good to me!

I always try to avoid posting in these threads since there is nothing new to say in them after a year of posting them. You could merge all the "1 account per IP", "ghosting", "housing" threads and you'd have the same points re-iterated 1000 times over.
UO gameplay would be a lot more RPG like if we were forced to play 1 account, players would have to take more responsibility for their actions and deal with the consequences... etc. There would be far more player interaction and less triple acct powergaming. It would just make it a better game, IMO, but much of the playerbase just can't handle (or don't want) to put away their crutches. I have 10+ 6-7x chars on this shard and would happily delete half of them to drop to 1 acct per IP.

Obviously nobody but the bossman knows for sure, but in my opinion which comes from experience here I would say that there is little to no chance of it.

Good it's not being considered. My dad used to play this game when I was a kid. I got to play it sometimes when he didn't. Now we both play this game occasionally, this would destroy that. (Same internet)
