Good intro example: sooo.. I fell off the wagon again.

After a two year dry spell, I have fallen off the wagon :'( and come back to UO for a bit. I have played off and on since T2A. I played on Baja the longest, but am now on deserted Lake Austin. I play PVM mostly, because I am old and my reflexes suck. Working on PvP, but there I am afraid I am a lost project.

Why did I come back? Nostalgia for one. But I have played several games in the past two years, and none has the complexity of UO. I tried evony, and was #1 on server 61 in 2 weeks and stayed there for three months. I tried Fallout 3, and played it several hundred hours. Even tried my hand at facebook games. No other MMORPG has ever held a candle to UO as far as I am concerned.

I am a retired Navy vet, two years into civilian life. I am a contract trainer at Boeing, teaching people how to build the world's finest aircraft.

I have a lovely 39 year old wife, (red head, 5 foot 4, 107 pounds, 34 D (fake)), who works out daily and has a SMOKING bod after four kids and living with me for 13 years. My oldest son is 22, my youngest is 16 ( yup, I married a lady with four step kids. At least all are from the same father lol :P).

I remember Trailmyx, but not sure you remember me. I searched for his name on GOOGLE and found this site.

I used to write numerous guides on skill gaining and running vendors, plus hunting tips and newbified feedback on scripts on several boards. I even wrote a script once on UOcoders, but it sucked. It was a gold at your feet stacker.  *late edit* On UO Coders, I wrote and posted the first ever intensity charts for fletcher and carp runics, plus added intensity charts for all tailor and smithy runics.

I have a vertical learning curve ahead of me in the game, and look forward to scriptuo making that a little easier. Might even try my hand at scripting again. During T2A, I used macro programs to capture movements on screen as scripts (did the tape a penny trick too).

In advance, I thank all the scripters kind enough to share their talents and scripts on sites like these with those of us less skilled. 8)

Baja is lame.

SI still have massive quantities of blues that they send in waves. They like hiding in Guard Zone, trying to act tough, and have allied just about everyone on the server. They keep a few Faction Stealth/Spirit Speak archers around for getting res kills on faction players and trying to get some pop shots on redlined characters. (Weak)

Cartel is back (somewhat). All Running super speeders and silly ninjitsu mysticism templates.

LOL, I remember both guilds in their power days. Sad that PvP has devolved to GZ tactics. At least I die like a good pixel, no GZ running for me if you get me.

Not I. The only practice I am good for is losing insurance money. :D
