New member introductions / Another returning Player!
« on: May 27, 2012, 03:26:06 AM »
Hi everyone, I'm krustenkrabbe (which is German for "crusty crab" =). 25 years old and a returning player to UO on the official servers.

I started playing UO in 1999 on Europa (didn't want to play on Drachenfels!) when a friend from school told me about the game.
While waiting for the order to be shipped (there were no digital downloads back then!), we were reading everything we could find about the game, I remember us making plans on how to advance from small houses to a tower to a castle... well when I finally quit around 2002 I had a small log cabin in the swamps north of Trinsic ;)
I was back for a while after Mondains Legacy came out, but I don't really remember much from then, I think I just reactivated an account and wandered a little bit around, too many changes back then for me to get used to it.
Well, last month I decided to give it a try again and although I'm still far away from getting all the new stuff I really enjoy the game now... I already built a sampire to stand a chance in PvM (it's all about the items now) and am decorating my house.

Well about scripting... I started out as a pure ressource gatherer, my first weeks in UO were just spent mining and then selling the Ingots at the forge or bank in Britain. Naturally, I soon looked for means of speeding that up and so I slowly discovered the possibilities of macroing. It started with UOLoop and UO Auto Pilot, but when I discovered EasyUO a lot of things were suddenly possible!
I'm not a great programmer myself, just capable of doing basic stuff (I'm studying civil engineering in RL, not computer sciences), but I'm having a lot of fun using other peoples scripts and sometimes making little adjustments to them to better fit my needs=)

Well that said, I'll hope to join a great community. From what I've read there's still a lot of active guys on these forums.

Greetings from Germany
