I am stuck outside of Shame right now. I am not sure why I am stuck. I died inside the dungeon, walked outside the dungeon and all of a sudden I'm getting the, "You are frozen and cannot move," message...
Please help!

Hey Candyman; good to see you on UOSA
Did you use the "Help" menu? That will take you to a random town within 10 minutes but during that time you are frozen. You can only use it once per 24 hours.

Nice to see you here also Mob-um-I mean bazooka
I tried that and it brought up the box where you had to type up a few sentences to a GM, which I sent the message about 2 hrs ago...
btw: You did an awesome job with Rel Por and I really can't thank you enough for the experience

If you didn't use it, then you might try it to see what happens.

Hmm... have you already used the free teleport to town today? Usually that box pops up when you do the help-stuck command and you've already used the daily free teleport to town. Also, you are frozen somehow (not related to the help-stuck command?), as a ghost? And you've been frozen for two hours?? Any more details on how this came to be?

Best bet is to join IRC and try to catch someone who can help you.

What happens when you go to the help menu in your paper doll options?
If a menu pops up you can try using the 'my character is physically stuck in game' which will teleport you to a random or nearby town but will cause you to be frozen or 'stuck' until you do.

I already tried it and it doesn't give me a list of towns as usual, it gives me a box I have to fill out and page in. I am now stuck in Skara Brae, thanks to bazooka
I believe that when I tried to help stuck last night, I logged without going to the destination. bazooka and I have come to the conclusion that me logging out affected the 10 min timer somehow.
So now I shall play the waiting game...

I'm not 100% sure but in this era I don't think you get to choose, it just gives you the option 'go to random town' or something but you have to press help go the the stuck menu and when it asks you for the info go back and select it again, sometimes doing it a couple of times did the trick for me.

Yea, I checked out Candyman's situation; looks like there actually appears to be a bug that keeps you frozen eternally

.
From what Candyman said, he logged off last night after using the help stuck option, so it sounds like there might be some particular conditions whereby you can stay frozen by logging out after using the help stuck option?

While you wait, why not start another character on an alternate account? Makes time go by faster and adds to your material well being on the shard
