I actually originally registered on my father-in-law's birthday, January 4th 2001. But my details no longer show that.

Yup. I was one of the ones caught in that glitched time too and ended up having to re-register. It was a sad day for me, but I survived.

I'm fairly sure Orvago or other UO staff or myself will keep everyone apprised as we know more and can give more information on things.

And as much as I hate using this phrase having been in Customer Support for so man years....We are sorry for the inconvenience....

Well, as long as we can beat up on Rico on some forum, it will all work out.

That isn't the reason a lot of people are registered around those dates. It is because the MyUO boards closed down at that time and they made Stratics the official forum.

I'm pretty sure the MyUO forums closed before the database crash...

The problem is, that it can't easily be verified without the Stratics Forums being up.

MyUO forums went down in March 2003

Changes for the UO Message Board Community

When we first opened the MyUO forums in the year 2000, our goal was to provide players with a central place to gather and exchange feedback with each other and with developers. Over the last three years, though, we learned that it takes a lot more time to moderate boards than to simply post on them!

As of Wednesday, March 19th 2003, in an effort to spend less time as �the police� and more time on effective communication, we�ve decided to discontinue hosting our own boards, and will now allow that �central place� to be the message boards hosted by one of our oldest and most dedicated UO community sites, UO Stratics.

Anyone who chooses to participate on the UO Stratics boards will need to sign up on the Stratics forums themselves here; we will not be providing players� UO or MyUO login information to Stratics. To browse the UO Stratics forums and see what they have to offer, head here.

Thank you, and on behalf of the Ultima Online Community Team, we hope to see you there!

LOL, that was a fun day. Many of us were trying to get posts on the front page before they shut it down so we could have our post in the archive, lol.

Lots of people got banned those last few days...go figure, I wasn't one of them...la
