I didn't log on for a couple weeks and my houses are gone....
I wrote a big blurb about it but the forum dumped it when I went to post it and now I am tired so I will keep it short...
The house decay rate is too fast. I would guess It causes some players to lose interest as I now have.
I have played UO almost since the beginning, so I am aware of most of the changes over time, and I do remember this era pretty clearly. I don't ever remember a decay rate of two weeks or less.
But, I can't complain as it is free to play, so thanks it's been fun.
