Thraximus,
I'm old and so is my account. Not as old as yours! I quit playing for several years and recently came back to
UO. Man, it is a differnet world! Some guy selling a castle for 28 mil! Houses for 2-3 mil! Heck in the old days I thougt I was rich because I had one of those tiny houses AND 30k in the bank, LOL. Back in the day when it took months to GM. Now people buy advanced characters and macro their charcater to 7xGM in a day or two. What a sad state of affairs. They'll never know the excitement of surviving against the odds will they?
I used to play on Legends. I moved to Sonoma because two of my D&D friends joined
UO and didn't have AOL (in those days you had to have AOL to play Legends). I recently checked out the one character that I still had in Legends. Hmm, anybody want a bunch of Tram/Fel stones? Nah, most of the people around now don't even know what they are, LOL.
