Hi guys, i'm rejoining the world of Britannia once again and just wanted to introduce myself. I have never played on Catskills, but i've always heard great things about this shard. I mostly played between 1998 and 2001 (Chesapeake, Great Lakes, Sonoma). I've had brief periods of game play between 2008 and 2014 (Atlantic, Chesapeake), no more than a couple months each time. I have played A LOT of the free servers in between, making me rather an expert of the 98-01 eras, but a complete neophyte of anything after.
I'd like to stick around more long term this time. I really haven't experienced much of the game after UO:Ren, besides some of the new mechanics. I'd like to experience all that the world has to offer, and I imagine it will take some time to do so (so I can't allow myself to skip away after a couple months). I would also love to join a community of players whose enthusiasm for Britannia has lasted 20 years. Its the people that make the game after all.
Other things about myself:
1) I'm probably split 70/30 in my interest in PvE/Roleplay on the server.
2) I tend to be very solitary. I think this contributes to why I don't stay sometimes. Given the choice between going to an event sometimes or being lazy and taming hinds, I tend to choose the lazy option. I'd like to change this a bit. (Taming hinds is boring anyway)
3) I'm a middle school teacher, and love the slower pace of the summer. I just finished summer school, so my play time can widely range. During the school year (late August and on), i'll be more confined to a 6-8pm EST time slot.
4) I have made a character who currently lives in New Haven. I'll soon branch out into other cities and the wilderness. If you happen to see a Ms. Terra Blight, feel free to talk to me in or out of character. I've been doing some UO lore research and developing Terra into the person I want to play. It will be a long work in progress though.
Anyway, i'll spend some time reading through all the sticky posts. If there are other Catskills resources you think I would find useful, I would gladly accept them. I hope to call this home
