Okay so I log into Uhall today to see more "I was banned and I'm innocent posts" than mongbats around Moonglow gate.
Well having been a victim of a Origin/EA(this was way before mythic) bonehead clerical error that nearly caused the perma-ban of my sis's account. I can believe a mistake could happen.
Heck, I could believe their account managment system got hacked and this was the result of said hackers. But I doubt it.
However I've seen alot things that make me wonder, if the Dev team finally got a belly full. I've watched for a long time as the cheating, scripting, duping etc spiraled out of control. I've watch helplessly as a script miners continued their activites unchecked after months and months of reporting them to GMs. Finally the Dev team implemented the random ore thing, destroying mining for the average UO player. I could go on and on about the "fixes" to stop the cheaters that have only hurt the average UO player, but I won't.
IMHO, UO needs a enema the size of King Kong and its long overdue! (I also think Uhall could use one as well, but that's a WHOLE other post.) LMAO
If everyone is as fed up as they say they are with EA's Customer "NO" Service the why don't you do something? Why not organize and everyone on a specific day go over to the UO Registration page or call the 1-866 number and deactivated your account(s). Leave them deactivated for 3 days, a whole week, or a month. A month would scare the bejeezus outta them.
It will never happen, and I'll tell you why, because the MAJORITY in uhall do not have the cojones to do it. The majority of Uhall don't even have the cojones to attend a UO Townhall forum and air their grievences in person. (PLEASE NOTE: This statement doesn't apply to the European, Austrailian, Canadian and Asian players that don't have townhalls.)
Would I close my accounts in protest? Yes I would! Am I attending a Townhall? Yes I will be live and in person at the Austin Townhall in September. Heck I'll even sign autographs....JUST KIDDING!
What I'm trying to say is everybody sits around uhall whining and whining. STOP WHINING and do something. Start a email petition, boycott UO for a month etc, etc I can give you a mile long list of things to do that will get you heard by the Dev team and the powers that be at EA. Sitting around whining accomplishs nothing but to annoy your fellow UO hallers.
Those of you that wants to get something rolling lets start right here, RIGHT NOW! Those that wish to continue whining: I have my earplugs in place and here's some CHEESE to go with your Whine.
Have A Nice Day!

I never said I was banned and innocent. LOL What I said was that my sis and I were victims of a bonehead clerical error that nearly caused Sis's acount to be perma-banned. She's still playing. Lemme give you the readers digest version.
