Well your dreams are half true they are making a older shard, but how pre uo:r is debated:
http://update.uo.com/design_526.html
As it states:
Quote:
At this time a new server will be under development. A server that will be similar to the 'Siege Perilous' ruleset. This server timeframe is being discussed and what era it will be based apon is what we are discussing. When the era is decided we will choose a certain select new and old updates to release on this server to what the public desires as this servers goal is to bring back the once hard core gamers and those who loved this game but left after certain updates.

that was a two-for-one
One: I got uber excited
Two: I went from really high up to WAY WAY down in about 1 second. It was actually physically painful.

Is there a reason why they won't make a shard with the pre:UOR rules? I mean they could make $$ I dont get it.

I would say to little to late. There are free servers out there with bigger populations than this new server will have, and way more accurate to the old pvp rulesets.

I never thought I would fool anyone. Nice to grief some people in the forums.
Your skill in forum pking has increased by 0.2% It is now 92.3%
The current owners of Ultima Online have no interest in developeing the old ruleset. Its like any other game, they dont think its attractive enough to have servers on their old code base with flaws. EA has stated that they consider UO moving forward and in a positive way so going back to pre uo:r is taking steps backwards which they dont want to do since they alread beleive they are better then before right now. The arguement always comes up but the management always turns it down.
Research into richard garrot and UO and you will find what really happened. In short.... richard lost control. EA turned OSI into baby pooh and scraped UO2 ( was suppose to be released in 2000, UO was only suppose to have a age of 2 years) but ea scraped UO2 and well.. carebears came. So richard left and made his own gaming company after he lost his rights to UO.
Sad story because I bet UO2 would have kept up wit hte current games and we would still be playing UO right now.
