Issue that has LONG be abused. "OPEN PAPERDOLL"

IMHO, or NSHO(not so humble opinion), this has been ABUSED, and we know it.

Wont go into details, but the DEV's do need to "FIX" this UO "SERVER SIDE" Issue.

Keep putzing and have a great day.

Feel better?

Now can you provide me with your credentials to support why I should give your ranting any weight that you have any idea what the hell you're talking about?

It has something to do with reloading information and updating everything on screen with the player, causing mobs to notice and (if aggresive) atyack said plauer.

There are far more important things for Devs to deal with. If you know something other than the rubber banding effect to round up mobs which has been there since day x, then report it as a bug on the official forums.
Tampering with client/server side communication at this late stage in the game is a disaster waiting to happen! It's not broke, it's not harming anyone, lets not fix it.

There are far bigger abuses out there, some of which you may even unknowingly do yourself. The problem is, many of these abuses have been normalised over the years to a point where they are common practice!
Ever logged out/in to save a pet? Or to get it to or out of a difficult location? That's a real abuse and that's just the tip of the iceberg!

Once again, "you hit the nail on the HEAD".

Bigger abuses?? 120 powerscrolls, one of the best rewards in the GAME. "We can finish a CHAMP SPAWN in 20 Minutes", even you have seen the bragging about this.

And along those lines. Those SAMPIRES, WHAMMIES, etc etc, that PERFECTLY time hits, spells, power boosters, etc these can be checked on the server side.

Hazel of Lake Superior <---- WAS me

The account is in good hands!! 50 plus "Personnel BLESS deeds", numerous "Item BLESS deeds" "15 or so Transfer Shiels" "CASTLE", etc etc. Give away FREE with NO Strings attached. (Not to mention two other OLD accounts that were also given away FREE with no strings attached.

Keep putzing and have a great day.

Even small guilds of like 2-5 people have been clearing up Champs in like 10-20 minutes with and without Sampires etc for years, how can you call that abuse?!? And it's not bragging, by todays standard it's a normal time frame and it's called teamwork. Take any longer and you are going to get raided!
You know if you teleport around a spawn it has the same effect ie. attracting all mobs to you? By your standard, this would also be an abuse.

As a side note, part of the reason the 'rubber banding' effect happens is because most things ARE done server side. The effect is not just isolated to opening the paperdoll but is a convenient way to initiate it.
If many of these action were done client side, that's when you would see real abuse! Be careful what you wish for!

Yes, teleport works. But when you see "runners", its sort of obvious.

When your down there alone, and suddenly see LAG LAG LAG, then notice the runners, stutter stepping (rubber banding) its BLANTENLY obvious. IMHO anyways.

Keep putzing and have a nice day.

Your posts get funnier and funnier...while you're doing IDOCs all day and night you see others abusing them, while you're doing Champ spawns all day and night you're seeing others abusing them. What's the next topic that YOU do all day and night that you'll complain of others doing it ? **waits**

AJ account now, was running to see if "old" friend was in game. Saw it, looked at house sign and was wondering what happens to AJ account if one actually falls while being present. Thank you.

Worked them on Stealth/Mage, knew completing them was impossible. Killed A lot. Eventually those killers that came in without guildies, would let me PRO them and they would finish. ALWAYS asked if they needed the scrolls I received. LOTS of 120's given away. Thank you.

Keep putzing and have a good day.
