Sorry, still not buying it.
With that kind of logic we should just make everything limited then.
Not everything..
Don't forget that this game is in a way just like the old MUD games. The dungeon-master determines how the game goes, the specials, rewards etc. We as players cannot demand or expect the specials to be one way or the other. Its a surprise, sometimes a nice one. We have agreed to this by playing the game and paying subs.
We can recommend to the Devs what we would like things to be. But its up to them to add/alter content.
There are problems, bugs, cheaters etc. But we are lucky the Devs are in contact and the do listen.
The hottest thing for some people is PS for their pets or characters. Not easy to get but not impossible. Raise a sampire or necro, go to the Fel spawns, spend the time take the risk and get them. It is doable. Make sure your sampire/necro can actually kill stuff and do it.
This has been the distinction between the cheat UO "Free but not free" shards all over, and UO itself. In reality these other "free shards" are not free at all. They are really pay to play. UO has not gone that way not all the way anyway.
Rare pets are just that. If we cannot see that, then we are totally entitled. You want the dread/bane etc? Then you need to put . in the time and effort, which is not a small effort and time. It may take 6 months to get one, lots of doing content to amass the gold, doing the right content to gather that also. But you will get there.
No need to be angry/upset about "other people" sporting a dread or other rare at the Luna bank. If you like to get one, just make it a goal, and advertise when you have the gold, and get . one, buy it or trade etc. I did, and paid the price. My dread sits at the stable. It will stay there. I feel better for having one. I paid for it and don't feel bad.
I also go to Fel for my PS. Its a pain to get them but I do, solo spawns, and with team. Get mostly crap PS due to being unfriendly with RNG, but I'm happy.
I think a lot of us want things instantly. You just got to have patience a little bit.
This is one of the challenges of this game. It is not an easy game and not an "all the way cheater's game" like the so called "Free shards", that can cost upwards from $200-300 per year, buy your own island, etc.etc. or the Super pet they have for $150, then you get pK'd there and others can actually TAKE your pet, for instance.
Just be happy this game has SOME rules, and is not all the way corrupt.
If getting a bane is one of your wishes, get the $ first, likely will be 110-150M, let $ sit in bank a while, try advertising, barter for price but be fair, and there will be one for you eventually. Same with Dreads a little higher price but doable. Other things are harder, like getting the Blaze Cu that will take spawning 24,000 Cus to get a chance to get one, but n t he process you will get some high stat Black Cus to sell minimum of 50 M/pop, Pure White ones for good $$ also, or super high stat ones to sell also. IMO these Cus are harder to get than Bane/Dread etc.
Also remember that any changes to the game or pet system, have consequences, from creating bugs to upsetting working game mechanics, to bringing imbalance to the game that will have major ripple effects. It has to be done with a lot of deliberation and pre-planning. We only have 2-3 Devs. They are busy with the content, even though some of us think that they are taking a joy ride. Also the game code is hard to deal with and it is booby-trapped left and right.
((On a side point, what they should do, is create some new rideable pets perhaps. As the ones there now have been there for ages. Or at least we can recommend that. Also add more content to Pet Revamp, and I think that this is in the works..exactly what, is going to be a surprise.))
