P15, though I had a lot of fun in P16. AoS was unfortunately the most half arsed and ill thought out expansion evah.

Didnt play pre t2a, well, only for matter of weeks, t2a is my memories of 'golden age of uo' however true that is, so had to vote for that. Had dialup 400ping and played a dexxer however, so from a PvP point i'd actually say p25. Was probably as much to do with going to a really fun shard(Drach) as the system, but still, so many good memories.

@neil, I actually believe 80% of AoS was good, seriously.

I gave it about 6 months and being honest I think it really could have been, but for me I'll remember the bugs, shard issues, massive imbalances (hi necro's in the first few weeks!) and poor lewt distribution above the good things. I really do have some great memories of early AoS, but as I got closer and closer about 6 months I got more and more frustrated and finally couldn't be arsed logging in to farm blood elementals on a tamer so I could have fun on a mage or dexxer.

It all became too much like hard work.

Champ spawns with whippet, dante and those of you that came along or fought against us were fucking ace though. And killing Agrippa (or whatever the leech was called).

Agrippa was a legend of late p16 and early AOS.

Anyway, I voted for p16.
I also liked p25 too.

I said pub 25 as aos is all I have played and that was the peak of it. With all the current issues in uo, pub 25 is exactly how I'd love it to be at again.

Order Chaos days were my fav I think

and gay though it turned out early AOS was quite a good laugh

P16. Champ Spawns completely revitalised UO and PvP .. it was dying before that tbh.

Didn't pvp before uo:r, enjoyed duelling and stat pking all through uo:r, no real diversity for templates til p16 though.

p16 OWNED, such diversity in fights/templates/attitudes, created a lot of pussy reds however, but more people being red was a good thing.

Early aos, before the lag fix, it was completely unplayable for me, so couldn't say, when that got fixed I had no time to pvm for items, so it sucked until the item changes.

p25 was awesome, only a few things remained unbalanced, and not a lot couldn't be countered.

p16 > p25 > early uo:r > late uo:r > aos

p16 may have been the start of the large imbalances to follow (i.e. AOS & Itemisation), but I still maintain it was immense fun.
Stat and Skill scrolls started to make an impact about half way through p16, but even so it was still such fun fighting against the ganks and getting away with it (Unlike most of AOS).
Of course runic weapons were lame too, but there was always the risk of losing the weapon (Unless if you were blue and fought exclusively inside a dungeon - which to me was the only main lame issue in p16 (i.e. looting rights in t2a and dungeons)).

Champ Spawns were the main cause of all the fun and fights in p16.
Huge numbers of people in Felucca - most of whom were so skilless or lacked knowledge that you could quite easily fight them 3v1 and kill some of them - even as a dexxer^
Champ Spawns were never the same again after p16 ended.

I was going to click p15 but then realised I would only be doing this because it was my preferred ruleset, not because I had most fun. I was going to click p16, because the large scale Fel changes revitalised the game for me, made me rethink every single template and created some fun mass fights, but then I remembered aos. Aos was by far the worst all round pvp ruleset, but certain elements of it were extremely fun. It was also the start of aos when i switched allegiance to I-C, and playing with my homos was the most fun I had in UO.

So I havent clicked anything.
