Hello Everyone!
I've been playing Ultima Online since 1997, but I didn't get anywhere in the game until later due being so young and having such a short attention span. Around 2004 I started playing the game a lot more and that is when my experience in UO really got going. I started off as a mage and I remember having such a hard time getting started. I spent almost my whole OSI UO career on the LS server. Anyone remember getting killed by the PK 'Cookie Monster' on LS? I do. I remember dying to him/his guild all the time, I lost so much stuff to them. I even remember at one point looking at the bounty board and seeing that he had over 1 million bounty on his head and being amazed.
Eventually I took a break from hunting in UO as a mage/tamer and started getting involved in PVP. I had been PKed a lot before and it never really appealed to me (Usually made me rage, **** you COOKIE MONSTER)
. I got into 1 on 1 mage dueling a lot and eventually got really good at it. Even joined one of the top PVP guilds at the time, and every month or so our guild would pay gold for the whole guild to transfer servers to fight new guilds. It was an extremely fun! No other PVP aspect of a MMORPG has come close to that experience since than. Now I only play Freeshards and enjoy the scripting aspect of the game though things like EasyUO, OpenEUO and Stealth.
A little about myself, I work full time for a software company that develops software to perform automated black box tests on applications. I enjoy developing software both at work and at home. I have developed a lot of different applications and scripts over the years for many different things, but there is always more to learn and develop. Thats why I am here.
Thanks for taking the time to read my post.
