There was a good point made in there by one of the posters. He was saying the mentality has changed as the younger/newer wave of gamers have taken up UO. I fear he's correct. It doesn't matter if there's a classic shard or not, it wouldn't be the same classic gameplay due to the change in playerbase.
What greater tribute to free will than the power to question the highest of authority? What greater display of loyalty than blind faith? What greater gift than free will? What greater love than loyalty?
what we all need to do is stop asking for a "classic shard" and start pushin for the removal of insurance in Felucca, if you want to murder a toon and loot thier stuff, what better way than to bring back the days of no insurance so people will feel more free to go to Fel, because every gate killing, house hiding, 3 on 1 ganking, no chance of a fair fighting, zitfaced stoner that is there wont be toting around 9(or more) artifacts as standard equipment, and the playing field will once again be level with everyone wearing GM armor and wielding GM weapons. this of course will do nothing to stop the script running cheats but atleast they wont have all the extra gear mods as well as a cheat goin for em. so lets scream for no insurance in felucca and see what happens, because there will Never be any "classic shards" started and deffinatly no chance they will remove trammel or any of the other non-consentual PvP areas since this is where most of the players choose to play, as most of the modern era of MMO players choose not to PvP, and thats fine , we just don't need to be able to freely attack them and loot thier items when they are minding thier own business, PvP should be for the Pvp'rs, the people that are playing to pvp, and anyone that attacks and kills players simply because they are in an area that allows it fail to realize that it holds no merits and shows simply that they exibit poor morals , there should be no pride in killing and looting a miner or other resource gathering player, more so there should be complete shame in doing so.
Just an old time/longtime UO player's 1.5 cents on a well beaten dead horse of a subject.
