    Howdy,

    If you ever feel like it and have the resources, a permanent standing Server Wars server would be kinda cool. For anyone who doesn't know, server wars was the 15 minutes or so after last save but before server restart. Anything done during server wars would be erased when the server restarted.

    RunUO doesn't need to do a daily restart. Frankly, I'd prefer that continue. But... what if we had a server like the test server that reset with the main server's save once per day? You could log on with all of your stuff as of that save and experiment, duel with your best, etc. It'd all be wiped clean tomorrow with a fresh save from the main.

    Regards,
    Wil

    Server wars were fun. The point was people got to use their very best items without fear of ever losing them. Then they made Trammel and insurance.

    Slippery slope.

    You can equip yourself in full ivul with valorite runic weps on test server, so a server wars event is kinda pointless imo.

    How about on April Fool's we turn off saves and on the 2nd, revert to the last save. :)

    Even I find this pretty trammie.

    It takes 10 seconds to setup your dream char on test and beat the sh*t out of each other for fun.

    Keep the main shard out of this.
    This will most likely push this shard into a item-based direction because you can use that vanq/+25 short spear over and over again.
    Making UO item based finally broke the original game for me.
