A lot of people choose to use IRC for basic communication here rather than bank sit.

Games evolve. People do what is easiest and what works the best. 12 years ago we all would have been in game because fewer people used IRC. Mostly would have been using ICQ. Times change, mate. :)

Dont expect to socialize outside town.

If you are not alone at the place you are farming, expect people to loot your kills, steal your items, blue pk you or get a red pk to come kill you. The server has so many griefers it's insane.
Know that you are never safe here, not in town or macroing in your house. Always use restock agents when macroing. That way you dont lose reags but just get set back in macroing time.
This again because of griefers. People WILL go out of their way to screw with you one way or the other - try macroing a provo in moonglow zoo and see how often the animal has been killed by some idiot or another griefer.

If you dont mind stuff like this - then this server is for you. I got used to it and still play here because i love the era and the staff is win.

PS. on the topic about where people are. It depends on what time you are playing and ofc what time zone you are in.I believe most players are on US time.

You have to go out of your way here to find any fight....the only way i can see this poor guy dying is if he :

1. Tells a pk gank squad where he is.
2. lags out and dies to spawn
3. commits suicide.

I know enough to say that you really gotta ask for it before someone will come attack you in a dungeon.
Dude wants to know if people actually camp dungeons like real UO. Was just saying that no one camps.

1. Pks are on a "making the rounds" rune book setup rather than a being brave and waiting for someone to show up kinda thing.

2. Blues don't attack anyone unless it's someone weaker than them, otherwise they'll die before any reds in the area . *blues always carry more loot than reds because they are usually less vulnerable to attack*
