C'mon lorbtar, give the game & your community some love,
a new mask, a broom, candy, something orange, a free coin, wizardry, walking tree's, a new uniform but just a different color, a recolored sprite of anything already existing ingame,... ANYTHING ???

It's the small things that keep people playing (i know you have a different view on it, but you're wrong!)

I'm close to giving up on this game :oops:

one of the fun things about most uo emulators i have played is the "rares" that the devs would spawn on holidays, special occasions, after an impressive pvp fight etc. over time this became a side feature for many people as they would scour the game trading for different rares to collect.

these would usually be some kind of special hue clothing or a shirt etc that would have its text changed to say something relating to the event it was given out for. other times would be other stuff, one halloween we all got pumpkin bombs (purple potions with their graphic changed to pumpkins), every christmas we would get a pile of snow stating the year, merry christmas etc. when double clicking on the snow it would throw a snowball at other people with snow in their inventory so you had 40 newbs running around town on christmas morning having a snowball fight :lol: . sometimes a dev was just drunk and in a good mood so he would spawn a specially named bottle of liquor in everyones inventory that was online at the time etc :lol:

anyway yes, the little things is what sets a game apart from the others and endears it to its playerbase.

so where the ***** are my pumpkin grenades jorb!?

I agree with the above.

Dressing up as a pope with a wicked mask gets me chased off.
I want something nice I can collect :p.

just something dumb like a box in the mail with a chair or chest etc in it that is one of 20 different colors some being common and some being extremely rare would keep people busy for months hunting down their full chair/chest collection.

Or borrow.

Or just pick one of your less extravagant looking combat chars.


Ultimately I want some interesting new stuff. A mask for face and wall, a no slot item, a grave stone... candy?

An apple? :|
