      Player number more likely drop because ZH Europe “reopened” on Sunday afternoon.
      Everyone too busy looking there to see if the grass is greener…

      Admins provide server for no charge, take their time to try make place for us to enjoy and here is one huge whine-fest. You are ungrateful.

      Stop thinking negative and give admins chance to make and test changes. YES there will be bad experiences along the way, but damnit I’m still playing UO (zh style) after over 20 years and still enjoying it even if my noob warrior gets ass kicked every 5 mins!

      If you don’t like the way the shard is going there are alternatives, go be unhappy elsewhere. If you feel one guild is getting preferential treatment.. get over it, life never seems fair even when you on the winning side.

      If none of you will say it!
      To Nagash and Dreams:
      Thank you for your time, effort, energy and patience. There are people out here who do appreciate what you do.

      regards

        I’m with you, Scav. I appreciate the work they’re putting into this. The update isn’t as detrimental as kids make it out to be, people are just entitled nowadays and upset that they can’t solo kill things now. The single player aspect of their game intended to be multiplayer is gone, and they now have to work together. Muy scary.

            Everyone who is going to benefit from this is pushing for it everyone who isnt hates it. I say fuck it keep the update just do a item wipe no issue there for me. Will also promote hunting again and you guys can have all the pvp you want plus more because it will lure people outside. I mean besides the fact youll have nothing and youll actually have to fight on equal standings like you know those people who are not running around with full escape slot suit and a leech swift dev, couple bloody devs.. You know the magical shit from magical fairy land that just so happened to appear prior to the rest of us really getting around to playing. If loot wasnt changed you dudes should be playing the powerball not this shit. 1/100k chance drops and just loaded down with them. Super cool. Obtained legitimately i assume but before ether the RNG is fucking itself like only you few really want to talk me into believing or the loot was changed or you had a way to collect massive amounts of loot. Tmaps who knows. Ether way it doesnt seem possible to do this now for everyone else and the balance of the server will always go to those items already in existance. Item wipe or reverse update or do whatever the hell you want. Worst case ill just stop playing. Its only uo anyways theres plenty of cool shit to go spend my time on with alot less bullshit to deal with.
            And i never once said i didnt appreciate Nagash or Dreams. I know them both and up until now had no issues. However lately the masses have been ignored for the few small groups of players *VIPS* we will call them. So aslong as those 10 VIPS are happy the remaining 90 players actually lets say 50 the rest are just russians beating the client cap anyways. Are completely useless fodder to entertain the vips. i mean really common now. i havent even seen a update that didnt make thieves better every time. Now just give them a AOE weapon that doesnt use stats as the base for damage and lower everyone elses ability to produce and mitigate damage. Making them more open. Dont believe it go test the sure strike with a lvl 6 thief and rush them with 8 guys and see what happens to them all. Stupid just Stupid.

              I don’t benefit, but I don’t care. It’s not detrimental. Just get good.

                Ive never had a issue with being good.. Never been accused of being shit ether. And no its doable but it shouldn’t have to be, Why make people who are trying to catch up work harder then those who only log on to be dickheads to everyone? Kinda stupid in my book. And had no issues with anyone prior to this so if i woulda just sat around and kept my mouth shut i wouldnt have anyone to worry about. Ill i would have had to do was carry more potions and change my suit to be less squishy and glass cannon like. However who cares. Why bother if something else will change as soon as it becomes hard for someone again. Let a few super interesting items drop for someone watch them beat the shit outta a few people and then the item wipe will magically happen… Like whats so bad about a item wipe. loot still easy and unchanged right? Item wipe and i have nothing more to complain about. We can reset with this new setup and start collecting again. i mean ill still be doing it solo cause thats what i do. When you got ten guys who can collect what was it 15k items a week. LOL youll be back at it in no time with nobody who can complain right?

                  Wow… so much anger and hostility! Relax, it’s a game, to be played for fun and distraction. I don’t really hunt so these changes haven’t affected my game play whatsoever. I say this because I know that’s the first shot that will be taken at me.
                  Also about the aforementioned Guilds having “advantages”. The only “advantages” I see here are the ones they created for themselves by actually working as a GUILD!! “Teamwork” and “Guild loyalty” seems to be somewhat of a foreign concept to most. Seems like in most Guilds it’s pretty much every man for themselves. They SELL the items to their “mates” and if they can’t afford to buy it or have nothing worthwhile to trade for it, they sell to outsiders for personal gain!! And that benefits your Guild how??
                  Those Guilds that are being complained about got ahead of most by working as a TEAM from the jump. Pooling their resources, hunting together, sharing all the loot. No items left their Guild if another member could benefit from it.
                  Seems a pretty simple example to follow.
                  So if you want to “solo” hunt, then do it. Just don’t cry that it take 20 seconds longer to kill something or that there is an actual possibility that you just might lose!
                  Seriously… Grow up. You’re embarrassing yourselves.
                  The update effected everyone straight across the board. The idea that certain players were targeted one way or another on a personal level is ridiculous.
                  You want the same “advantages” as those Guild you’re bitching about?? Put aside your self-serving, entitled attitudes and show some selflessness and Guild loyalty and you just MAY achieve what they have.
                  Stop pouting and play… or not. Ultimately your decision.

                    Seriously, You can feel the way you want and ignore what was happening in the last thirty days or not, Say we gotta work as a team blah blah blah, Reality is before there wasnt much concern for certain guilds, Russians came in and started blasting everyone, Cheating or not they started winning, Now server rules have changed making it much easier to take on large groups of players with the right amount of gear. This is a fact. A thief with the ninja star and level six poison that cannot be protected will now be able to poison 8 people at once. Seeing how even buffed they most likely just lost 100 health those poison ticks are ganna hurt bad. REALLY bad. now you have effectively put an entire group on the defensive, Then you send in a mage to do a Mass dispell and they all die! the entire group. So effectively now the people who have the right stuff will be able to just kill anyone. anyone they want. There will be no skill. there will be no running away. All will die. This is a fact. Youll see in the coming days. How they slowly updated a certain class with the right items to being a godclass that will actually beat 8 people at once no issue. With one attack then disappearing unless your fighting with people who are running around with 400 or so health good luck that poison will drop you in three ticks. Done and instead of doing that to one person and then smashed by the remaining guild members your going to send the entire party into defense heal and run. like it dont like it your opinion isnt my problem. This is going to be reality. THIS is what the numbers will show. THIS is what will happen. its math not skills PSN+AOE+LESSHP= death to massive groups the boost debuff was just the way to really make sure that stuck good. ill even stop arguing with all of you. Ill just let it happen. Watch what happens in the next 30 days. This happens in every server. This is why servers end up shutting down,
                    The only thing this will do is smash out the russians be super excited for that. The day i started the server i watched (I) members saying some of the stupidest wierdest shit ive ever seen to some of the most respectable people ive met and i joined the guild im in because i thought what i was seeing was trash. The other day i watched the guild leader tell someone he was going to go to his house and kill him. Super cool man didnt know i was playing fornite with 10 year olds. The shit and trash talk the constant banter and bullshit they were doing to the playerbase to encite anyone to go get ganked was absolutely trash then they also hide at shady/Dung/ghost and do exactly what the russians were doing and then gank other guilds. Then the russians honestly they sucked but atleast they did something and all that stupid shit stopped because they were occupied. So just remember that they were the harassing chars before the russians then it was them. Once they weed them sobs out guess who will be doing that shit to you. Oh i forgot if you dont leave town it doesnt matter. So yea. Talk what you will say what you will. This isnt me making shit up out of thin air. This is shit that was observed. This is actual facts in my 70 days of playing this server that i have seen. Also the russians are not the only ones running more then 2 clients. But youll see them bitch about it

                        I cant seem to get any items at all atm, but for me its been like this on every POL-shard, loot always seems to get worse
                        Nah man, i can promise u, same thing happened on omega 1.0, i think something about the randomness in pol are fucked up.

                        yesterday after i started bitching. YEA sounds legit right. its gotta be every pol shard because he was the only one to ever play it. But this was to hush me up

                          this is why the change was put in because of the russians

                          GrymYesterday at 12:54 PM
                          I promise u, this is much better for the pvp part even though u say u dont like the pvp part. Buffs make way too much of a difference. Check at the russian guild (bucks) they dont even use gear when they hunt.
                          Cause they use numbers like 9-12
                          gear dont mean shit on zh due to the buffs being way to big
                          Nope we dont man
                          The buff is like +12 better i think, and we lost magic eff cause of the update with true classes

                              then his next message to explain why i should stop complaining but he just told me he has full escape. lots of sense made. i however do know he has a leechs swift dev and full escape.

                              And im sorry, but i got the same shit like u do on me atm, even worse gear.
                              And im hunting just fine

                                  I hear ya. I also knew that the jab that I don’t hunt much was gonna happen. I called that one straight up.
                                  I know some spec thieves. I was told the new throwing stars aren’t as good as he thought they would be. Area only 3-5 tiles tops. Warrior can cure the poison as its not a one tick death. They tested it. Warrior had time to rush him and kill him and was able to cure the poison. Granted, he isn’t a lvl 6 thief either. As you know, finding a balance that will please everyone is nearly impossible. No matter what, someone is going to be mad.
                                  Although I agree that periodic item wipes are refreshing, I don’t feel that this is the time for it. Such things should happen at the beginning of a new “season”. Game-play always slows down in the summer as people spend more time on other activities and are outdoors much more. September/October when people are indoors more would make much more sense to my way of thinking.
                                  Sadly it is true.. it isn’t only the Russian players that skirt the rules and run more than 2 clients. Lack of Integrity knows no borders.

                                    So turmoil, you are implying from our private messages that I got anything to do with the updates? Did I leave suggestions to Nagash? Hell yeah. Did I like Every update ever made on the shard? Hell no, I whined like a bitch about every update theres been probably, just ask Nagash how much suggestions I give him and he throws them right in the trash can.

                                    You are also taking pms out of context and im not a fan of ppl first trying to before friends and after that stab them in their back and start bad mouthing them like you do.

                                    Yes I got worse suit on me than you got atm while im hunting , even though I got good gear aswell.
                                    The update isnt that much of a change that you are implying and I like the update even though I would like other changes and im all for an item wipe aswell .

                                    On Another hand, i also been bitching about the loot being shit now, also something you implying I had something to do with?

                                      You dont contribute to the shard when you are implying lirs and talking shit about my guild.
                                      I knew that Braveheart wouldnt understand shit about this, though to the fact he loves to troll and accuse everyone of being staff and favored. You on the other hand been implying my guild never hunts, that we say shit to the Most respected ppl you know, etc.

                                      I can take critique but straight up lies i dont care much about.

                                        Oh and Turmoil… FYI I leave town plenty. I just don’t happen to go where you are. I’m not going to feel bad because I stand in one spot grinding out resources for other players to use to build skills. They are ACTUALLY building their characters by putting in the time and doing the work and EARNING their skill points. They did not come on the scene and build their skills with a handful of trans scrolls then brag that it only took them a week to make a character. Big deal! Here’s a cookie.
                                        And what’s this crap threatening my crafter on chat?? Are you kidding me? If killing a crafter does it for ya and makes you feel like a Hero, then go for it! Fill yer boots! Trust me when I say that would be a mistake but if it makes you feel accomplished and tough, well have at it.
                                        I’m a nice person. I’m polite and helpful. If I can’t say something nice, I try not to say anything at all. But seeing you boast and brag about how great you are on guildchat ALL THE TIME is rather nauseating after a while. So I’m sure I’m speaking for many others when I say… Put a sock in it would ya!! All this name dropping garbage is pathetic. No one cares! You are forever yapping that you have this big influence on the Developers and talk like you have Nagash in your pocket. Hate to break it to you but TONS of people have Nagash on Discord, you’re not special.
                                        Only thing I ever heard about your staff characters(from anyone else besides you), is that you were corrupt as hell and a cheater. So who are you to be pointing fingers or to be making accusations towards anyone? Remember when you are pointing one finger at someone, three more are pointing back at you!
                                        Also… posting private conversations on a public forum says more about YOUR character than the person who trusted you with his privacy and confidence. If anything, it shows that it’s YOU that is not trustworthy.SHAME ON YOU!!
                                        Stop being a whiny crybaby and move on.. either play or don’t. Trust me when I say no one really cares one way or another.

                                            Wish I could hand out some spankings, wash out some mouths with soap and stand others in the corner for a time out.

                                              Id be down for a item wipe, better yet char wipe as well. I love this shard as well. Hats off to Dreams and Nag for making this and putting time into it, but maybe there needs to be more community voting? Why was a change like this even made without a community vote? Because at the end of the day, after all your changes are said and done, what do you have when no 1 is sticking around to play your server? How many servers have you gone through nag? And the same shit happens everytime, changes are made and ofcourse you will never please everyone, so over time people leave. Changes that really affect the server like this blessing change is a big 1. I noticed a big difference the first monster i killed right after server came up. And guess what, i logged out instead of playing last nite because i got a 51 nag staff buff so i dispeled to try get a better 1 with a regular buff and i ended up with 233 dex from a lvl 5 mage. I dont think people logging out is good for your server. And this thief shuriken i havent even seen but am very confused why thiefs even needed this? Thiefs already were owning as it was when they could only attack 1 person at a time, now they poison multiples? Point im getting at is i never even heard anybody talking about either of these 2 changes. Im not on to often as i have a very busy life, but the way a couple of people here are defending it i can see where this change came from. So now we go to these so called “favoured” guilds, I see you guys defending this change, so im assuming you guys are all for it and are probably the reason it happened. Its hard to not say people are being favoured, when they are the 1’s calling the shots. They wanted a change that affects the whole player base, and it happened with no community vote what so ever, or so i seen? So ya i would call that favouring. Which is fine, i choose to not socialize and play alone to avoid cheating/drama/shit like this. But at the end of the day, if people arent playing this server because of 1 sided changes, it will be just another to add to your list of dead servers Nag.

                                                Well, reason I defend it is because I’l like to see balance in the game. It’s affecting us more than anyone as we have a spec 6 mage with sages and nag so our 20% is a greater statt loss than ppl who say have spec 5 and no sages. Their 20% are affected less.
                                                Go read my post in Suggestions and it’ll be explained why. A buff shouldn’t make or break the game. It should put you at an advantage/disadvantage, not be the deciding factor of who wins and who loses

                                                      The reason why i defend the buff decrease is due to the fact that with how the buffs were before mods were kind of pointless. I mean mods has been decreased since omega 1.0 but with the buffs staying the same there are truly no big reason to gear up. But with the buffs decrease maybe we should make mobs a little weaker aswell.
