well well folks whats up. Hunter i was gonna make a different thread but i figured it get moved here cause everyone disikes me on this shard for the most part anyways.
anyways here goes, few months back i was married, had another kid... spent alot of time gathering gems for the abyss. didnt have much time to do much of anything..besides take care of my boys and my wife. not to mention my mortgage my job etc. so i been away from UO for the first time in my life really since i was a freshmen in college some 13 odd years ago now. but saying that it was time for a month or two break anyways..
i started playing uo with windows 95 which originally had windows 2 on it and old piece of shiat system anyways. then i had another it blew up about 6 yrs ago then up until the end of summer i played on a hp with a 900 mghz chip 128 mb video card.. which was always suitable for UO just coudlnt keep up with speedy people and always dominated when i played.. well after a long long discussion with the wife daddy was able to talk the wife into letting me upgrade for the first time in many, many years. now i have many pcs set up in my den but most are for second clients etc. but now i have what i would like to think of as the cream of the crop:>
costs me over 2 grand but im very very happy....not that anyone gives two shiats but here is whats in it with some pics...now bare in mind i dont play wow, i dont play star wars or many 3d games but believe this one will do the job:>

now i still work first shift and i dont get that much time to play or i should say i wont get that much time to play.. specially at prime time during the week...but im back in black and ready to slay as always...
im very proud of my new system the only reason i posted it on here is many years i have passed and i have over 12,800 long terms on my main character and never cheated a day in my life in this game.. and every time i think of all those people doing all those things to get a edge and still dying to me on my old system always made me smile. rolleyes:
now down to business... i recieved your email snake about what went down with scam and someone getting killed etc...sorry to hear that was hoping to come back and find same old guys doing the same old things...wether anyone likes it or not snake is a straight shooter and always been loyal to me balls to the wall same as most of scam. my characters are still guilded so when i get icq installed and all that other jazz i wanna know in detail what happened... and ya im sure if i went back through the threads i could get the loe down but im too tired and dont have time for that jazz...anyhow...i have only installed my email, pc procs and security so far..
went to install uo and uoa that went great but what is it with uoam? it patchs to files and then quits wont run, just crashes. iv reinstalled dblckd firewalls.. whole nine yards.. just wierd anyone have suggestions?
and as far as Stygian occurs all i really care about is imbuing so if some one could throw me a strategy, way to train the skill or link me to some thing that would be kool. other than imbuing any of the new trammie shiat worth my time? i was so pissed of when OSI created trammel now we have what is it 5 blubie worlds and yet still one felluca facet? this game was build on PVP not pixel crack for kiddies.
anyways,
peace...
let the bodies hit the floor!
