Yes I do think it’s a good idea. Nothing wrong with a name and shame policy.

Professionals!? Pfft.
There was no attack. I merely pointed out someone’s poor grammar and corrected them. Ignoring it just means they will continue to misuse it with the potential for future embarrassment. Do we now live in such a snowflake world that correcting someone’s mistake is frowned upon? Every day is a school day.
Once got a infraction for trolling when I pointed out Mesanna's grammar and spelling mistakes in some UO.com post
You better watch out!
Corrected and well done grammar police, I shall fire my auto-correct for that mistake at once! Now the bigger question since yours was already answered in my post... have you been ALLOWED back on the official forums? I remember you having some random login/account activity issue...
A lot of times it is something people do. This is the only forum I've seen that doesn't allow the calling out of names. I feel it's more to protect the people that are really doing things wrong than not.
No he hasn't because he doesn't have an ACTIVE account like all the other people that post there do. LOL So he comes here to troll as normal
I don't think it's that strict. My UO account run out like two weeks ago and I didn't renew it yet, but I can still post there and my profile says 'active account'. Just saying..
I guess you just need an active account to register and there are no checks after that..
I'm so weak...I broke down an made an account over there *sigh*
*points and Laughs
Umm... If you play the game, you didn't have to make an account.
I just kinda lurk over there. Honestly there really is no more of a response on those boards from the devs than there has ever been here. Kinda sad really. Was hoping that would at least be a benifit of an "official" UO forum. Sadly it does not appear to be the case.
Don't they still run this forum from the focus group on ToL? With people under NDA? I guess that's the place where they talk to the worthy..
Yes.
Probably because we found a flaw that allowed people with an inactive account to still post so long as they didn't log out.
I think the reason they did it was if you had an account and were logged in and your account went dormant you could still post. It was a way to fix people without active accounts from posting.
There were posts here on Stratics saying that even after their sub expired that they could still post because they never logged off and now after a time period you are kicked off and need to log back on so it can ck to see if your account is active
Gotcha. I was trying to figure out who the "we" was/is.
It doesn't matter. This is another example of how conversations get derailed into stupid conversation and bickering. The pronoun we is self explanatory. Me and someone else, or many someone elses, figured out an issue that this new observation of being logged out may be the result of.Gotcha. I was trying to figure out who the "we" was/is.
Y'all didnt really expect them to get it right, did you? On the first (or second) try? lol
Lighten up it was a simple question. This whole thread is about the new forum and so was that portion of it. He didn't question the who but how it was being done.
Actually, he literally did question the who.
Gotcha. I was trying to figure out who the "we" was/is.
I said some days ago that I could still post there despite of an inactive account at that point. Someone replied they worked it out with the help of a Mod over there, and now it seems they delete sessions once per day so everybody has to log in once per dayGotcha. I was trying to figure out who the "we" was/is.
went over to the new forums to read what some people are posting. Man Does UO now have their hands full. They just added another mess they have to monitor when they had perfectly good working forums dedicated to their game. I will forever not understand their logic.
I wonder if post over there will slow down
I went to reply twice and found that I was logged out and didn’t bother logging in, call me lazy (or maybe the effort of logging in wasn’t worth it to me lol)
I think I have been logged in to stratics for half a year now. Only time I get logged outs because of comp or tablet updates.
LOL You could say this about most things they have done in the last 5 , 10 ? Years
When anther dev added ninjas “because their COOL” I thought we had seen the worst of it from devs.
BUT Hell no we now have dinosaurs and my little pony mounts WTF LOL
Elf’s before Orcs or goblins wth.
EA has done a few star wars games Star Wars is cool right ?
Well to be fair Ultima has always had a sifi edge in its single player games.
New vet reward Lazer gun and life saver.
Highs seas WHAT A GRIND just to fire a cannon F@$& ME no thank you
They should have went steam punk meets Tim Burton if anything imho and that’s lame tbh.
Sorry rant over.........
one of the funniest rants ive read in a while. For some reason i was reading it in the voice of "ozzy man reviews" Ozzy Man Reviews
really got a good chuckle.
Yea classic Broadsword fix.. quick quick quick... half done.. barely tested...
Like "Oh there is an bugged particle effect in EC? We fixed it by disabling all particle effects for you.."
So tired of it but still can't let UO go :|

But on a serious note..
The fact that there has not been any sort of official forum managed by EA/BS for all these years is the original problem. I personally think this should have happened like right when BS took over stuff. Stratics was contracted out as the official forums years ago... Right around the time Stratics stopped allowing RMT. To my knowledge, that contract ended a few years ago and was never renewed. We remained the non-official/official forums regardless. I am happy they have their own setup now, and I think it is a good way to channel more new and returning players. But for me, I am content posting here mainly. Stratics just feels like home, and we get to be a little more rowdy and unfiltered (within reason
) here too.
Fixed it fer ya. Yer welcome!... <large snip> ...Stratics is home, and we get to be a little more rowdy and unfiltered (within reason
The new forum is wierd.
I suspended my real accout in preparation of EJ. I cannot log in with it. I do not even get an error message. It just pops back to the previous screen just like nothing happened at all.
The interesting part is, that if you create a new trial account, which obviously never received any payment, you can log in without any issues (but you have read-only rights and can't post).
Very inconsistent...
