    Could you imagine playing other games with these people? "I don't want to play monopoly with you unless I start with owning all the property and 10000 dollars in my bank". 
    I'm ashame to admit it.. but as a kid.. I wouldn't play monopoly with my big sister if i was not the banker.. DO NOT ASK ME WHY! 
    That $500 dollar bill that “accidentally got pushed up under their side of the board.” Same as the rest of our older siblings did if we let them be the banker.

    I am stoked about how proactive the dev team has suddenly become. It almost feels like someone above Bonnie said you have to let someone else try a hand here and then gave Kyronix a chance to call the shots the last few months. Whatever it is it is awesome and keep it up. I just bought my 4th purchase of sovereigns for the month because voting with dollars seems to be the most effective way nowadays.

    1.5 plat worth the votes lost …
    wasn’t very effective just saying. 
    And there is a lot of talk about people quitting over the changes I hope they just adapt instead tho

    Why wasn't this done earlier? Years ago?

    Did we just finally learn how much complaining it takes before the devs are convinced to act?

    Not complaining at all, just planning ahead for the next thing that comes around.

    I thought Broadsword did try to contact the owner of that program but were told he was not supporting it anymore, so they went with ClassicUO.  

    That's funny, players want to pay him to upgrade at each patch.  Keep doing whatever messes them up Devs!  We are fine with having to patch for 10 seconds before we begin the day!

    Also it seems that this game that is declared dead regularly has enough interest to support multiple peoples income.  Dead? hmmm.

    Man.


    I decided to login to the discord server for these scripters... It's such an interesting environment. A mix of desperation, fear, anger, denial. Them trying to find ways to pay some random dude in Russia to support their cheating efforts is absolutely insane to me. These poor people have lost touch with reality, and are literally addicted to cheating, and the amounts of money being discussed to support it are unreal.

    Could you imagine playing other games with these people? "I don't want to play monopoly with you unless I start with owning all the property and 10000 dollars in my bank". 



    There's a whole lot of folks saying, if I can't cheat I don't want to play.  That's such an, I'm going to take my ball and go home attitude

    Well good, I didn't want to play with you anyway
    That’s crazy, I want to bask in this also.
     
    Which discord is this in?

    Yes it’s definitely been a quality adjustment.

    Bought sovereigns earlier, bonus that they had a slight discount.  Will probably buy more tomorrow.

    What discount?  They are 49.99 for 5000 for me.

    You have to checkout to get the 10% discount.

    Bonnie NEVER contacted him, at all
    The idea of a paid version/subscription of the program without any scripting involved was also suggested and as usual no one , no one, no one answered

    My question was directed at Oreogl. EA Play subscribers get 10% discounts on EA digital purchases, including games, points packs, and DLCs. I was never sure if it counts toward UO items, but it could be why Oreogl is getting a 10% discount:

    I thought the EA play only worked for games that are not UO.  But ya, we need to know if @Oreogl has it.  Then they will take UO off it. Lol

    I also thought it didn't work for UO, but maybe its Christmas time? Not sure the $5-15 extra a month would justify the 10% discount for me personally though.

    If they had some discounted Holiday Sovereign packages, I'd definitely stock up though! lol

    Well that is good news because UO is always left out of sales that go on thru the year.

    And there probably will be quite a few that subscribe to it for that.  Thanks

    Thanks for the confirmation! So, I guess if you play other EA games and/or spend more than $60 a month on sovereigns it might be worth it.

    Do you know if the discount count toward the subscription?

    As far as I'm aware yes, it works for everything on the store including game time.

    That’s interesting, it could be?  I don’t play any other games but the kids might have this.

    Thanks for the link!

    Clearly worth it if u plan on restocking sovereign. 1 buck for 10% on UO store (next 14 days)

    So rather than recognise the effort the botters went to, to set all that up - for the benefit of the players, to help get certain items, something you could never be bothered to do, you would rather drag people backwards to your neanderthal world?

    Yep, just did Solen Hive on Atlantic during prime time, and got 100+ drops in an hour with a Sampire with 2,900 Luck and a Potion of Glorious Fortune, 100% legit Classic Client. I was so enthusiastic about the lack of bots, that i bought Sovereigns and Potions of Glorious Fortune to take full advantage of the lack of bots. I encountered only one bot train down there, and that was the only time i lagged down there. The bots were 100% responsible for the lag on Atlantic, and for crowding out legit players from the event. On Atlantic, there used to be a bot on every street corner and a bot behind every blade of grass. Not anymore, at least not for now.

    Fel is quiet on Atlantic too. The usual shit talkers have completely disappeared from the PvP scene until their cheating clients get updated.

    This will bring me back to ATL to farm drops. I have been doing mares when I've been able to play for the most part and then spending an hour or so farming drops on Origin to test out the Solen Hive.

    I don't have the time today or tomorrow but hoping things stay the same through the weekend so I can do some farming without all the lag and BS on ATL. Up to this point I was just going to wait until the bots dropped the price down under 1m per drop and just buy what I needed.

    I mean 100+ drop per hour.. soon enough @PlayerSkillFTW gonna replace the bots to make ~90m per hour (900k per artifact)

    but the huge difference is u can now PLAY the damn thing.
