Hello, my name is MrOdd & im a UO addict.. .
The first time I had a taste of Ultima Online was in beta. At the time I knew this girl, well one day I was at her house and got talking to her brother, he ends up telling me about some computer game called Ultima Online. Long story short I have no idea what happend to her or her brother, however im still playing that dang game!!
Back in 1997 I started playing & the shard was Great Lakes. My first character was named Methos, he was a taming-mining-archer!! FEAR THAT TEMPLATE!! It only took about 2 weeks before I turned to the dark side, or perhaps the red side!? The first time that I was pk'd was on a road, I ran for my life as what I thought back then were flying worms attacking me. Which later I found out to be energy bolts, hehe.. .
My fav years of UO were 1997-1999. I had some really great & fun times. Back then I had 4 houses on one account, one of those houses was a small house inside the fenced area in Jhelom farm. Some great pvp memories there. I remember one massive order/chaos fight there. Must of been like 100 people or so, was wicked, bodys all over!!
I sold one of my accounts in 2000 and took a break.. .came back in 2001. Then about 2004 the guild leader of BC (guild I was in at the time) left UO. Guild took a nose dive, after about a year I moved shards following some friends. Now I play on Pac/Sonoma.
You know, I really miss the days where you ran around naked chasing people with a halberd and a pre-casted flame strike!! Muwaha!! Ahh and the bounty board, what fun.
Now everything is about how many mods you can fit on a suit while chugging 80 pots all at once!! Ok, maybe not the 80 pots thing. But thats ok, im still addicted!!
Thanks and sorry for my horrible typing skills.
