Hi all!
Returning player here :) I put "Yes I am a real girl" in subject because I have a female name in game and everyone still talks to me saying things like "Hey, man." or "Thanks for the heal, dude." lol ... Figure I'd better just get it out of the way :)
My brother introduced me to UO years ago, and I played a bit when suits had no mods, and really got into the game when 100% LRC was crazy cool and hard to get. Sold Rideable Llamas and Forest Ostards at Brit Bank for 5k each to make loot and work my taming. Played a few years until 2009 when I took a break to deal with some personal stuff, and just reactivated account about a week and a half ago.
Lot of changes! I am currently playing on ML, have not updated to SA as of yet, but I am thinking of it. I've always played on GL but it looks so dead now and I hear a lot of people have transferred either to another game or another shard. I may do the same myself.
So since coming back, I have met and talked to quite a few people, and it seems that at least half are also returning players, so it makes me feel good about the near future! I know there are a lot of games out there that people think are "better" in one way or another, but UO is the only game I've ever really gotten into and the only game that keeps me coming back. I hope that a lot of others feel the same way. The sense of community there is great, and if you have been around a long time, it is kind of comforting to know you can leave for over 3 years like me and still come back to find familiar faces. And they'll remember you!! I was amazed.
Around 2006 maybe, I was introduced to EasyUO. I thought it was the greatest thing since sliced bread since it saved me from having to manually click my mouse until my fingers fell off. I used it for crafting, watering plants, etc. and at that time my house was basically a giant supply place for guild (Mostly guys who didn't want to do their own pots/armor repairs/regs). haha
Now that I am back, my goals in the game are a bit different. I want to relax and have fun doing something I enjoy: IDOC hunting and crafting (and maybe a t-hunter). I won't be into PvP anymore like before, as my time in game is limited due to the hours I work and I remember a lot of drama. lol
Since coming back, I've been kind of disappointed to find that a lot has changed with EUO, so I searched for a site with some updated scripts (IDOC for instance) that will work for me when I play. I wish I could edit them myself, but I've never been very good with coding outside of design work with HTML and CSS, which obviously is much different. I ran around for 2 hours last night manually searching for IDOCs and my wrist hurt so bad after from moving the mouse constantly to look at signs it was ridiculous. (FYI my regular job is typing all day too. I work as a title examiner for a bank and I go through property abstract search reports all day and enter info from them.)
Anyway, I hope this isn't too long, and I know maybe some of it was rambling, but I just wanted to say hello to everyone and say that I am glad to be back playing again! It's been fun so far :)
And no, I won't give my bra size lol (saw that somewhere as suggestion for introduction but now I don't remember)
Parting thought from Philosoraptor:

Good gravy! This is a hulluva intro! If you're into the IDOC thing, you've come to the right place!
I used to sell forest and frenzied ostards in Delucia myself - back when 800gp/per was satisfying. lol
Hopefully you find a shard to call home, but most aren't very populated anymore.
Welcome to the site!
-
Haha yeah, 800 gp wasn't bad either. 5k was at my peak and I like to remember the good old days lol
I started a character on a few different shards, seems like Atlantic is pretty busy now. Another friend of mine now plays on LA, which I will probably check out as well.
Thanks for the welcome, and such a fast reply!
-
We try to break our backs to approve good intros and let the mediocre and sub-par ones sit on the shelf and stink up the place for a while or forever. ;)
People still don't get that yet after all this time. Good intro=fast approval.
I remember when there was so many people hanging out in delucia, but now there's nobody.
-
LOL well I like to babble on anyway. Don't encourage me, or you'll start seeing essays on threads/replies!
-
Wow DUDE!! ;) I kid..I kid..
Now that was an intro that I definitely enjoyed taking the time to read through and through. Appreciate you taking the time to do so.
There are some really nice little tools to help in your idocing endeavors here that I'm sure you will find helpful. (I know I do.)
Welcome to the site Ms. Fluffy!
-
Thank you! I am really glad I found this site. Had no idea of its existence until I decided to try a Google search out of desperation... Guess I should thank Google too. My hands are thankful, too. lol
I guess I can let you slide on the "Dude" ;) hehe
-
Welcome to scriptuo FLuffy
-
Nice intro "dudette". Welcome to SUO
-
Thank you both! :)
-
Welcome!
-
oh no! you got the "big font" treatment! hehe
-
As much as I've taken a break from UO and, sadly, this board to only just restart this intro makes what ever I wrote seem childish I'm sure.
-
That's ok, your avatar makes up for everything... ;)
-
!!! I was waiting for the big text !!!
However, I am rather disappointed I didn't get the moving big text. That was pretty spiffy, from what I saw on another thread :)
Thanks a lot guys for the warm welcome.
And TrailMyx, I just saw that GIF you have on your posts and I almost spit my drink on my keyboard. I didn't notice it before now, and my stomach hurts from laughing
-
That big text is like a big warm hug of appproval. I have seen the rolling text once too. Anyway, welcome.
-
Gimlet is compensating with the big text.

Welcome to the site!!! Switch to Siege for a ghost town with some persistent players or Atlantic if you want to see more people.
I can't seem to quit UO effectively either.
Have a great day Dude!
-
Thanks everyone!!
Even I said Crome, and I'm new! :P I kid, I kid. And thanks for avatar comment :)
I did xfer some chars to Atlantic. I am enjoying it there so far. I am kind of splitting play between Atlantic and GL right now.
I guess I will always be Dude. Better start making my peace with that now. lol

The H is silent Crome LOL I tease!!!!!
:-X

I guess I will always be Dude. Better start making my peace with that now. lol
Tell us your bra size, we will decide if you will still be called "Dude" or not!!
Lol!!
Welcome!
JaF
-
LOL
All I will say is it is definitely not a "dude" size!
-
lol, mentioning "boobs" around here is like throwing chum into shark-infested water!
-
hahaha
What, no one's ever seen a pair before?
-
hahaha
What, no one's ever seen a pair before?
No, I think it's just an unhealthy fixation. Perhaps we were weened too early; it's not very clear. heh
-
:P
-
Oh, wanted to post something I saw today, thought it was pretty funny :)

hehehehehe

Evil..
@ Fluffy : How old are you? Because i know older "Women" often play uo. :)
-
I am 28... Is that "older?" Am I officially a cougar yet? lol
-
Lol, most of us that run this place are old farts. 28 around here is a spring chicken. heh
-
Mmm, chicken...
Side note: Glad other people are on because I can't sleep. Got an awful cold, and just sitting here working imbuing and wandering around the forum :)
-
I am 28... Is that "older?" Am I officially a cougar yet? lol
No , was just because all women i met yet, except 8 were 50+ in Ultima Online :) So you would count as exception. Only in the Freeshard scene i met some women younger than me yet.
Good Health :)
-
Yes, I know what you mean. I met a lot of really nice older women in game, lot of them are sweethearts and so funny! I made some really great friends playing this game, both males and females. Some are life long friends. I met one girl on there few years ago, and I just got back from visiting her and her family for a week. Lol
-
haha much better than my intro... im a board lurker, im here alot but im shy... partly due to never knowing when i am
-
Hi Rose!!
Sorry for delay, been working a lot and haven't been on in a few days :)
As for shy, I totally understand. I am very shy in person, but more outgoing online. It's weird. lol
-
Funny thing about shy. When Cerveza found me, I was a total board lurker. Look what happened! heh
-
welcome to the site, be sure to abuse the search button.
-
Jedi boob trick!
-
@ TrailMyx: I'd never be able to tell you used to be just a lurker :)
@ Hoby: I am abusing the search button already, and I have it crying for mercy! And I really want that tee shirt, too. lol
-
Oh man, I have got to get that one for my girly!
-
Welcome!! :D
-
YOU GO! I LOVE when a girl can get into UO and enjoy it i have had many irl girlfriends i let play and it stuck with them long after we slit apart and we still help each other in the end :D i think more girls should join UO pardon my language but it is kinda a sausage fest :<
-
You just rescurected this post. Welcome to 2013 :P

-
Oh man, that totally made my day. LOL
-
I guess since this has been revived I can post an update. lol
I am not in Ohio anymore, I moved to Indiana and bought a house in February.
I stopped playing UO for a while after moving since I was busy with new house.
All of a sudden I have free time on my hands, because I just got laid off work last week after 3 years at my company.
Oh yeah, I'm still a real girl and I still like UO :)
-
dx, you made my day :P
