WARNING: 'Owned By ...' Items
Logged in today to see my Slither in my backpack. Odd, it used to dequip years ago but a patch went in a while back and it always had stayed equipped. Went to put it back on and 'you are not the owner!' and it disappeared. Great game.
I will add: I was not the owner on the Slither but I have been able to equip and wear it for what the last 10 years? Lol.

Owned by Items, is supposed to be Blessed for that owner Only but anyone can use, something happened and now is not allowing anyone to use other than the owner, I paged a GM and he said as usual "sorry i cant do anything about"
Please @Kyronix ; and @Mesanna ; - something that was not broken, now after the patch is!
What can we do? GM said pretty much "sorry"
Regardless I actually think usable by only the owner is the way it should work.

And just out of curiosity why do you think that is the way it should work? It's not like you can't insure them if they are not blessed. If tally's were all cursed by design, I get it, but owned-by saves a little bit on insurance costs and that's it. I have two characters that share a cameo because I can't afford more than one, that's a real shafting for anyone who does that and for what because they had the unfortunate luck of getting a tally that was owned-by? That seems like a deterrent rather than a cool add-on and I suspect the original intent was cool add-on.
As to what was intended when it was first introduced, that was my question. The article quoted was from a player wiki not an official UO source. Can anyone point to something UO (Broadsword or EA) said that was the way it was intended to work? Until some one can I will assume it is just a mater of a long standing bug that just got to the top of the to do list.
As for why no notification I would guess they like me assumed it was just minor house keeping not realizing it would really be a big thing to anyone. Sorry.

I used to my Cameo normally and out of nowhere no longer equip it.
Unfair. Because there are items of high value.
I never said you weren't entitled to believe what YOU want, I was just curious of your reasoning; additionally, I didn't say cursed/brittle/etc was bad, I said it doesn't make sense that owned-by was intended to be a detriment as opposed to a supplement. When you can get the same item in a multi-equip version why would you want an a version that is only equippable by a single character? That doesn't make sense, because saving 214 gold in insurance doesn't really 'balance out' the plus of having a character restriction on an item. If the owned-by bumped the stats of an item or had some other plus to offset that, then cool, but it doesn't, once again leading me to believe to original intent, combined with the rarity surrounding owned-by talismans was for it to be a supplement and having a restriction is really not a supplement that is offset by a 214 gold savings.
As far as your assumption we'll find out if they return it back to multi-equip.
That's how this team rolls LOL.
I could write down a novel answer to you.
Give a rest? With the stay at home situation, most of people are home, most people playing, most of us asked the Devs to delay this major patch, to test everything, no, everything was rushed, quite few things broke, and maybe you dont realize, but a lot of people have those cameos and slithers and others that they probably bought for a lot of gold and now they cant use, i am only complaining for the Lack of communication, Mariah said that the Devs look at the posts and most the time dont answer, i just think that for some issues like this They Should Address, not everybody go to bug forum , not everybody come to this forum or the other, that is my point..... Give a Rest......pftttttt.
@Kyronix and @Misk ;
NOT been resolved
