Those comments always make me laugh. You're pretty gay if you've not had A REAL LIFE for all the years you played uo:(

Didn't seem to stop you producing 15 kids anyway..

If you're a pk...different for pvpers because o/c and factions were pretty good at times.

Well, most the AOS Superstars consider themselves PK's so yes.

And anyway O/C wasn't nearly as active as people suggested, if you were outside the main core guilds on Europa, then you were never really involved in the core constant O/C action.

Factions well, I can't really say much about it because other than abusing the reprieve I pretty much avoided it.

I remember o/c being really active a year or two after uo:r was released. A lot of the player also followed a non reskilling/horsekilling code which I thought was good, the people who didn't were always given abuse.

I dunno where you pvped UO:R cause this non-horsekilling thing certainly didn't happen where I was. Guys like Rubious Firebolt and the likes were always horsekilling in O/C. Again unless you were in one of the big five, or put up a respectful fight I never saw much of this honour.

Certainly it existed in the pre-set O/C fights between guilds whcih were relatively organised, but in open field, I dunno.

Even ELR had a rep for horsekilling.

And also having the largest number of wars on the server.

maybe I was lucky with my experiences then, but I got the impression most people weren't griefing in o/c at the time. Maybe I got special treatment for playing a solo (or sometimes 2 man team) dexer without pots or running and only killed people infrequently.

Fuck that I used to horse kill anyone, because it was funny to see the anger at a time when horsekilling was largely considered lame. But when everyone started doing it in aos it was no longer funny so I stopped. To get a reaction from people you have to do something that really makes them angry, not something they expect.
