Pre AoS, Pub. 16 was good, just I found that after the add of AoS things went downhill (sadly)

I couldn't cast my vote, cause it would be for "I like where we're going!" I liked all changes so far, and I'm a 5 year vet.

Any pre:trammel will be fine. Heres how I see it.

I currently play a freeshard (which I know you all hate, and discourage) but let me tell you why me, and thousands others do. - We miss old school UO. The constant threat of danger, no trammel to run to, no artifacts, no spell delays, no power scrolls, house looting, stealing at the popular banks. Thats what we all miss, and I will guarantee you, that if OSI releases an old school/classic pre:tram shard (no insures either :grin: ) It will attract more people than they could imagine.

I also currently play WoW, and I dont know how many old UO players I've ran into. They were all like "Hell yea I'd come back if OSI had old school shard." The PvP and skill that people miss, was all ruined when AOS came out. I'm not here to bicker to you guys or anything. I just know that in the back of my head people would flock to a classic OSI shard. We were talking about it on our forums/IRC of the shard I play and so many people said they would go back to OSI if this happend.

This would be an extremely smart move by EA if they did this, they would make a ton of money, they would literally kill all the free shards, they would attract alot of people from WoW and Everquest, and people could reminisce the past that they once loved and knew as UO.

BTW - Heres some pics of what I currently play, (yes some of them were taken recently), don't you guys want to come back to this on OSI? Becuase me and thousands others sure do.

Keep in mind these pictures are not to promote, but to simply show what I'd love a classic OSI shard to be like.

I'll leave this post up, but please don't advertise/link to the free shard in question
Thanks for the screenshots

Sorry, wasn't meant to. And I will not link to them. Thanks for informing me.

Illusion metro is right.

There are thousands of us playing on free Pre-UOR shards, and the vast majority of us would come back if a Pre-UOR Shard was put up.

I'm just glad EA is finally thinking about this, we've only been begging for it for 5 years now.
