Twelve days late, and a first post at that!

Don't give up on UO, Lena. Chesapeake is the only shard I'm on, and I was in the same boat you were in back when I was new four years ago. Heck, I even stopped playing for about half of a year, then I got my credit card bill and realized that I was still paying for the game. I got on, got hooked up with someone who, without any renumeration, gave me aid, and here I am, still playing to this day. I'm sure that many people here would love to help you, myself included. My ICQ is 106079149. Drop me a line.

Welcome to UO and the forums LenaMarie

Ask any genuine person in the game and they will tell you that they've had a few bad experiences too.

I've had a few bad ones but theres 2 that sticks out.
1. (This one's embarrassing) I was in fel minoc doin some mining when a so called "blue" showed up inside the mountain. There was an awkward silence(lmao while typing this i was butchered!!) and i ran for town knowing that i cant be attacked in town. Needless to say i didnt make it. When i got my body back i saw the guy who killed me get killed himself. Me being a "newb" i went to loot his body, thus turning grey. I came under attack again and ran for town. i start hitting my macro and thinking i'll be safe but i get my 1st experience in getting Guard Wacked.

2. Take this as advise too.....Someone wanted to do a trade with me late one night and i agreed to go into party eventhough that was a no no. me being tired i saw the crate in the trade window showing no weight and stones. the person said it was too heavy and layed it on the ground and told me to check it. i did and KABLAM! Instant Explody. I lost everything on me cuz i didnt set my stuff to auto renew insurance and stupidity.

I've been goin 52 months strong and still have a few bad experience but not as memorable as these 2.

Well enough babbling, feel free to icq me 227448994 and again welcome
