Aye, I still wander the woods of Baja.

Hello, everyone!  My name is Joe, I've been playing UO off and on for about 13 years.  My uncle introduced me to the game in 1997, and since then all I ever wanted was to play UO, I'd even lumberjack and mine for him while he was at work. I'd play on servers he didn't have characters on so I wouldn't lose his stuff on his shard.  I had so much fun even if it was sheering sheep for weaving bolts of cloth, but it was never the same as having my own account.

One night, while my uncle was going through some chests on UO, me behind him staring over his shoulder, a log cabin fell in front of my uncle's tower on Baja and he opened a new account and threw up a house, and gave me my first UO account for Christmas, I've been hooked ever since..  Try to quit, or cut back on playing and I come back every single time wishing I had never left.  From the time I hit those pavers in Skara Brae, I've played almost every template I can think of, PvP and PvM minded.

I'm 26 now I have 3 accounts to myself, and my uncle, my brother and my fiance' (36/28/38) all still play occasionally.  It's fun to play with people I know in real life, but there are people I've met in the game that have literally watched me grow up, helped me through hard times, and generally were there for me more than  most members of my real family.  Granted, most of them are gone from Ultima Online now, but it's better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all, right?

I look forward to sharing and meeting the members of the SUO community!
