the BLUE players on this shard! They are pretend Blues and mostly have a few
murder counts. Those people who say this shard should be colorless definitely are
proving their view point!

Recently, I was minding my own business doing PvM in Santuary dungeon!
When, Richy RicH [KoC] found me in Stealth mode watching my EVs.
Did this guy try talking first? Nope.
Earthquake, Earthquake did not work! Reveal, Reveal...did not work!
I so fustrated him... finally he standing there with his Bow ready ask...
"Who are you?" Right, like I was going to talk after his attack!
I just Stealthed walked away...
I just enjoyed this encounter. I was suppose to, right? This is Siege Perilous...
enjoy it folks.

quoted for truth.

My blue char is a pure as the driven snow. Mind you she's a crafter and has trouble killing shadow wisps. Did kinda kill a JSV by example opening a crate in Luna. I survived the experiment, he didn't.

I only have a stealther on Europa, but to be honest, having someone looking for me and failing I consider tremendous fun. Make sure they're not casting EQ, stealth up behind them, drop a mirror image and stealth off. (usually giggling)

We should have perma red on Siege. But every time it has been brought up for discussion in the past, the oh so great population of Siege opposed it.

There should be no Blue/Red/Grey in Siege. No real need for it imho.
All Field and area spells should effect all within its area of effect regardless of coloring/partied etc, even the caster, except when normal area of effect is centered on the caster.

I guess I am one of those pretend blues. :(

I will admit I once had a murder count on Skylark, which I had to wait 40 hours to clear. IMO it shouldn't count, since it was Castor that I killed, and really if it had gone to trial in the U.S., the charge would have been reduced to involuntary manslaughter or maybe criminal negligence, since I clearly underestimated how tasty he would appear to my hiryu, and I didn't have the hiryu on a leash when the er, mishap occurred. But murder? I had no intent to kill him. Yet I was convicted on the spot when he reported me! If that doesn't illustrate how messed up the system is, I don't know what would.

Guildtags may tell you more about the char than the color.

I'm sure he wished he was red when he tryed to hurt you with fieldspells.

I understood which guild it was and I left the blue alone!
If he was red the two EVs would have said, "Yahaxithonix is attacking you."
and then I would have done Paralysis, paralysis,paralysis untill he was dead.
He probably would have try to do a two shot kill on me, he would have probably died after me. I do not do well with PvP events.

Dude, why do you keep thinking you know whats best for this shard?

You ideas are wack, your storytime books about how to improve UO aren't even read and your opinion about the people you play a videogame with is stupid.


and you wonder why nobody takes you or your opinions seriously?

Oh I know well that a lot of my ideas are opposed by the "majority" and I'm disliked by many. That doesn't make my ideas wrong. Also, I suspect that no matter how many people may think poorly of me, more think poorly of you:).

The EVs would do the work...
*stares*

Have you seen how much damage an EV does to a person with 70 energy resist? About 9 damage now with 120 weapon skill and even with 0 dci they will hit every other swing. Even if you spam para it will have 0 effect on someone with resist and even if it did the vortex would break the para. No one who isn't naked, with 0 resist and partially challenged is ever going to die to that, you did the right thing staying hidden.

I'm pretty sure the guild I'm in... bah, forget it. Dude, this isn't a popularity contest or what people think of eachother. This is a "come to jesus" talk that I'm having with you... seriously, give it up. Your ideas are somewhere off the deepend and generally you don't consider whats best for the shard, you only consider whats best for your idea of what you wished the shard should be.

I don't think poorly of you, but I also don't think you have a flipping clue regarding what your talking about either.

Have a nice night!

Yes, the Hiding and Stealth skills gave me a break even with Richy RicH!
I sure if I put my mind to it, I could do PvP, but it is...
nvm.

This main point of my post was that Richy RicH tried talking only after all else
failed!
It is and always be my policy to never talk to those who pk me.
So, I will never have that rapport with reds.
That game is over with.

Finally something we agree on:). Being opposed by the "majority" or damn near everyone has never stopped me and never will. I don't let what the "majority" think change my beliefs, either in-game or irl. I believe many good ideas are thought by very few people and many bad ideas thought by most people. Nor do I think much of arguments trying to gain favor with the overdone "everyone agrees with me" crap. Typically such arguments are weak.

This is a "come to jesus" talk that I'm having with you
Ahh we have even more in common. It's scaring me:). Apparently I'm not the only one who thinks he's right and better than others...At least I recognize that in myself though. I don't think you do...

seriously, give it up
If ever I do it will be because I want to, not because you suggest I do. People have been telling me to shut up on these forums for years. You should have learned by now that I don't really care and will do as I please.

you don't consider whats best for the shard
I disagree. I always try to consider what is best for the shard. Often what is best for myself and best for the shard are different and, unlike so many others here, I choose what is best for the shard.

*edit* Though this can be taken further with the recognition that what is best for the shard is ultimately best for me, or you, or anyone, even if it doesn't appear so on the surface. If only the selfish among us would realize this.

But you also need to see that if a majority disagrees with you and you keep trying to push just what you want then that is a bit selfish on your part and would hurt the shard more than anything.
Im currently saving up some money to buy you your own shard that way you can push your changes onto it, quite likely youll be there alone playing with yourself (this may open your eyes a bit.) That may actually be the problem here, you always seem to run solo so youve been playing with yourself for a long time now and that is what has your mind so clouded. All this playing with yourself has got you to where you only want your changes done and I think in the end your changes would run alot of people off and therefore youd be playing with yourself alot more. Now dont get me wrong, I used to play with myself alot too,but then my wife comes along and i dont play with myself quite so much (she likes some blowing ... glass). If you recruit a bit or join a guild so that you not playing with yourself so much you could get some of their insite and this may open your mind up a bit, till then im afraid your just gonna be sitting at the computer there playing with yourself.

There are some ppl I see once or twice a year. You are among them!
There are some ppl I never see at all! But, they are suppose to be there.

I travel far and wide through out the lands and dungeons. My encounters with
reds are few! I do not actively seek reds out.

More than two years ago when WyRm and company was sweeping the dungeons,
I decide enough of this and I planned against encounters. Yes, I am hiding
from the reds. But, I still do very difficult solo challenges.
Sometimes I get caught. *shrugs* So what... that is not important to me...
that part of the game is over with.

Please take note that most of the times I get caught and escape is impossible
from a large group I just accept it, and ignore it. Also, I do not fight back
sometimes... why give interplay to a red.

Let wolves eat wolves...

First, I disagree that playing with a large guild would change anything except making me hate ganks more since now I'd be apart of them.

Second, by your logic, it was selfish and hurtful for the shard for me to ask for say, a ROT change. At one point, almost everyone was against a ROT change on Siege. It was me and very few others asking for a change. The "majority" disagreed. The "majority" made sure I knew that they were the majority and I should shut up since no one agrees. And yet now, today, the "majority" seems to have switched sides. Now most people on Siege are for a ROT change and acknowledge that it is good for Siege. But by your logic, I and others shouldn't have done anything to try and get ROT changed since most people disagreed...it was selfish of us to push on despite the overwhelming opposition. Had we not though, would the majority now support ROT? No. Would a major ROT change be very beneficial to Siege? Yes. Is it selfish for us to ask for what is good for Siege? No. Well maybe, since asking what is best for the shard is best for us too:). Your logic is flawed. Plenty of good changes start small. But if we all remain silent whenever more people disagree with us than agree, how much would change for the better?

Very true, but times were different then. That was before this shard became a ghost town and quite possibly was before the introduction on the champ spawns. Times have changed over the years. At that time people did not want RoT change cause it wasnt needed.

No. It wasn't that long ago. Not even close. And Siege's population was in decline at the time.

*edit*
Btw, that was just an example. You missed my point if you thought my post was about rot.

Wolves blood is rancid. I'm sure yours are sweet and tasty.
You need to traveling more in East Brit in EU time :)
When I travel through that area I take only three paths.
1. Along the coast while I check the houses status.
2. Along the road... just passing through.
3. Along the north mountains checking houses and killing Dark wisp and
Clerics of Mordain!

You have the best chance while I am attacking a monster!
As for the time... random...in the CST evening and probably one a week!

Good luck!

Ahh. So you admit defeat then. Seeya.

If you're still convinced the majority of people were against a change to ROT only so long ago though, idk what to tell you...you're completely wrong. I'm sure everyone was against a change then, if it even was brought up for debate. I wouldn't know though since I didn't even play then. But they were also against a change much sooner. And when I was arguing for a ROT change, which again is impossible to have been when you thought seeing as I didn't even play, most on the people on these forums were completely against it.

Once again im just shaking my head. Your so vocal with things on here and with every post you make it clearer that you only have yourself in mind when you propose change. I havent heard of anyone encountering you in this game for some time , yet you think you got all the best ideas. I saw , and fought you once in Trinsic maybe a year ago, that was the first time i had seen you in 2 years, yet you think you got the answers to PvP. Your never seen at events nor out in any traveled town, yet you know whats best for the community.... *shakes head* , maybe im missing something but it just seems like you have no idea what your talking about. Didnt I read in another post that you hadnt played in around a year, yet youve been posting all along about what you think is best for the shard? Im sorry dude, but your totally clueless and your posts scream that .
