I remember when Reds were Dreads and Wind was the place to be.
Holy crap wind... I forgot all about that! I was so excited when I first got to go there haha... god man... those were some different times.
I remember when I opened a poison trapped box... you got hit with a poison that you couldnt cure.. but you COULD heal while poisoned. So I ran into my guild house, and proceeded to drink every single healing potion we had... and all my guild mates used up their regs trying to cast heal and cure on me... saying "The poison has to wear off some time!". It didnt. I died.
I remember when you loaded UO, you would see a treasure chest open and that was the log on screen
I also remember the first PK I befriended... he took me to his house, and he was the richest person I'd ever seen! Loot everywhere, to the ceilings, endless! That was the day I was like "man... forget this, I want to be a PK!"
I remember when I got a house on ice island, but decided I didnt like the location, so I re-deeded it and tried to find a new plot. Little did I know, on Atlantic at this time, housing spots were hard to find... so I was wandering around searching in vain, when a red ran up, PKed me, looted the deed, and then placed the house right back on my old spot. That was a shitty day haha.
I remember when traveling on roads was considered to be very dangerous, because of all the PKs... so we'd always try to run/sneak through the woods everywhere we went, running from any reds we saw.
I remember when killing PKs and turning in their heads for bounties was actually a big deal.
I guess thats why I really developed my hatred for trammies... old school players were hard core, we had to put up with so much shit... but thats what made the game *fun*! I never got PKed and was like "fuck this im quitting!" Hell no! I was like "Fucking PKs... you just wait, I'll get powerfull one day and get your head!".
