Hello shard!

Post by Fargo »

Hello Shard!
At first i will post in german, my native language. My english is not the best, then i will use google-translator to translate it into english. In game i can talk in english, sure, but this is very important. (my first post here ;) )

Hallo!
Ich bin neu hier und möchte mich gerne vorstellen.
Ich bin 40 Jahre jung und hatte von 1999 bis 2004 UO auf Drachenfels gespielt.

In den letzten drei Wochen hatte ich auf einem anderen Freeshard gespielt, der mit den meisten Spielern, und war aber sehr entäuscht weil ich permanent von PKs getötet wurde. Darum war ich auf der Suche nach einem Shard wo ich in ruhe spielen kann und wo die Spieler freundlich sind. Nachdem ich mehrere Tage das Forum hier gelesen habe denke ich, dass ich hier richtig bin. Ich bin echt beeindruckt davon wie freundlich und locker hier gespielt wird. Ich habe mehrmals "welcome home" gelesen wenn sich neue Spieler vorgestellt hatten. Und ich denke hier auch mein Zuhause gefunden zu haben.

aber ich habe eine Frage. Mein Englisch ist nicht so gut und ich habe eines nicht verstanden.
Darf ich ein Makro, zB per Razor, verwenden um einen Skill zu steigern, zB Musicanship? Kann ich meinen PC eine Nacht laufen lassen ohne an der Tastatur zu sein? Ich verdiene damit ja weder Gold noch Materialien.

Ich freue mich extrem auf die nächsten Wochen!


And now on english by google translator:

Hello!
I am new here and would like to introduce myself.
I am 40 years young and played UO on Drachenfels from 1999 to 2004.

In the last three weeks, I had been playing on another Freeshard with most of the players, but I was very disappointed because I was permanently killed by PKs. That's why I was looking for a shard where I can play in peace and where the players are friendly. After I have read the forum here several days I think that I am right here. I am really impressed by how friendly and easy is played here. I have read "welcome home" several times when new players had introduced themselves. And I think here I have also found my home.

But I have a question. My English is not so good and I have not understood one.
Can I use a macro, eg via Razor, to increase a skill, eg Musicanship? Can I run my PC one night without being on the keyboard? I do not earn gold or materials.

I am looking forward to the coming weeks!

Yes and yes :) As long as you do not gain anything you can leave your character AFK (and macro stuff too). As said in the codex:
It is allowed to train skills, if the skill doesn't produce any resources or add value to a resource, and your skill is actually increasing. Examples:
Allowed: Hiding, stealth, animal lore, lock picking...
Allowed: Crafting: tailoring, blacksmithyharra, cooking...
Forbidden: Mining, lumberjacking & fishing: not allowed to train while AFK, as it produces resources.
Forbidden: Lockpicking in dungeons, because the chests contain loot.
Forbidden: Alchemy crafting: not allowed to train while AFK, as it adds value to reagents and can result in profit.
Forbidden: Using slot machines in the casino.
