    I would guess that the maintenance made a few of the servers unusable and probably brought the player cap way down.

    Or it's not really up, and no one has gotten in at all.

    First thing first. Can you cook, and can you level me up when I take holidays?
    there'll be no unwanted attention until those 2 questions have been answered.

    I can and do cook, but when I'm not I'll be levelling my own character, if you can't keep up....

    NOW I see what all this up and down time has been about. They wanted to have people queued up, madly clicking to get in.....
    so they could test their spanking new "Sod off, it's full!" message!

    Good job, Crypitc! It works speldidly. Now kick some folks off and let me in! ;)

    Heh thats funny :)

    Servers are full... time to buy some more racks?

    I updated while the servers were down, started reading this thread checking every minute or so because given each time I want to play either a) servers are down or b) so many players are online it keeps disconnecting me.

    Figured I'd have enough time to be online before everyone else got online as it took a minute or two to patch.
    I must've been off by 60 seconds for when the server returned, only to instantly load the game and be told "Server is full... please try again later"

    There is no damn way the server is full that damn quick. Looks like might be looking at some more downtime :p

    When I got started in UO 12 years ago (Thanks Dad!) MMOs were a different world and the number of female players was so low that announcing your gender was a bad idea. Nowadays I feel completely comfortable because I am far from alone. I don't try to look like a guy IRL to "protect" myself and I don;t need to here either.. most guys are cool about me being female and even the flirters are nice enough, I very seldom have an "issue" with anyone because of it.

    My hat is off to you.

    UO was a very differant place compared to todays MMO's. I kinda miss it .
