I'm telling you red... we need the skill gain deeds back, to get more players its easy to convince someone to play when they know they can start out with a decent character but to get someone to switch and play from scratch its much harder... if you dont wanna see this shard die at least bring those back until we have a decent player base and we can help but its hard convincing people to switch when theres barely anyone on and all these rich players already here, i'm not saying we didnt work for it i play here for the last couple months for hours every day but to get new players they need some kind of incentive to switch.. the changes you made were cool but we need something to get them here... i'm not sure how long you have played uo but way back in the day on the osi test server they had "skill gates" that would bring your character up to 95 or so of the skill that the gate gained... something like that would work better than the skill deeds maybe but seriously i've referred people but they dont wanna start from scratch and the stat gain at least when i started was fine

to be honest hes right , you add them back it'll make people want to switch i promise if you add them i will go round the major shards spamming this website saying it has skill deeds blah blah blah etc etc to make players come , when you have a playerbase of about 30-50 regulars AKA Hecter And Pretty In Pink lol then maybe delete them but leave pet bond deeds etc etc at the same price cos it doesnt affect new joining players

Ok, after SW new players will get a 500 point deed. I'll recode them so the newbie ones are tied to the char so you have to use it on that one char. Donation ones will be universal though.

ASayre banned you from ConnectUO... but will I be banned if I do it? =)

You could try... but think as soon as he sees AoV he'll just delete it. But give it a shot, problem is he might ban your account lol.

I emailed Ryan about possibly getting at least unbanned from RunUO though. Really if they don't get me unbanned they're just shooting themselves in the foot. With the way things are going this shard won't last more then a few more months so I'd end up posting all the scripts on RunUO forums.

I do some of the coding as well. A chunk of the minor monster fixes (Kraken launching waterballs, antlions digging) I have coded. The khaldun stealables were also coded by myself. Black does the large coding parts such as the uoml peerless and the different custom systems. I do the smaller things such as loot packs/monsters/bug fixes and todo's in the coding that black might not have time to do because he's coding larger things.

If you want more players you need to advertise the shard, bring all your friends who you know play uo to here, bring the people you know from uo here, put the shards name and adrres to some forums you see someone is asking about where to play uo and so on.

Once we get the stable players, the shard will start growing.

And maybe then red changes back to that better server?

Dont spam uo legends, i live there mostly xP

Archived topic from AOV, old topic ID:545, old post ID:3228

Actually don't spam any OSI shards period, thats just going to make us look bad. I would restrict spamming to only demise. Like pm people etc. Avoid actually posting stuff on the forums, just pm people.
