Hopefully this shard will have some nice Pk V Paladin battles and such. Anyone know if they're going to use something like Razer or UOA on this shard? or what? | ||

Macroing is allowed, as well, but unattended harvesting of resources is not. | ||

Sounds like a plan, I've made #IPY for now on Quakenet, but I dont even have a beta account on there yet.. | ||

Not sure what you mean by triggers, but yes, people will be leaving their computers unattended and macroing to raise skills. The good news is that this won't be nearly as effective or necessary as it was in regular UO. The first skill gains of your play session will come very quickly. Gains after an extended session will come very slowly. You're also rewarded for getting out of town and visiting dungeons. | ||

Is this IPY shard historically more correct? I don't get it. Why the hype? For me it's not so much that it's better, since I don't know all the rules of each server comparatively, but rather because it's a new server, and it looks like it might be popular. Since I'd just be getting back into UO, I'd rather start on a brand new server without everything already established. | ||

Is this IPY shard historically more correct? I don't get it. Why the hype? Maybe it'll be better. Maybe it won't. But years ago, IPY was the largest player-run server by a landslide, averaging 1,500 people online. Also, it's new. Everyone is getting a fresh start. For me, the appeal is that it's not historically accurate. As much as the tank mages of old will deny it, the T2A rule set had some problems. The IPY developers are trying some interesting things to correct them. I'm excited to see how the paladin system affects PvP, whether the new spawns and portals will attract the PvE crowd, and how the political system will work. | ||

After alle the corruption got revealed the shard got taken down screwing legit players and the people responsible disappeared from the internetz after giving some lame excuses only to resurface a couple of years later. I dont understand how so much hype is happening after so many people have been scammed for real life money. A Brief overview of what happened the last time | ||
