  Moving to a New Shard

While it is certainly a disappointment that the shard will be shutting down & alot of time and effort that some put in will be lost, we can also turn this into a very enjoyable experience in the long run. Though it grew small at the end we had a very good community. I think it might be alot of fun to gather a group of us together, do some research on the other shards that remain active, and all move to a new shard and start a guild or small community together within the new shard. We could all work together to maximize our skills and wealth at a rapid rate and be back to pvping in possibly an order/choas setting in short time working together to be one of the stronger communities on a new shard. I think moving somewhere where we all start from scratch and work together to build up something solid would be a very fun thing to try. Everyone could choose a differnt merchant skill and we could have great items in no time and in the same right everyone could assist each other and we could be well skilled quickly as well. I just wanted to throw this out there to see who would be interested in banding together in a move to a new shard and then we can discuss doing some research to figure out were would be best.

  Give the shard to the players

Is there any possibilities from the staff to give the shard to the players? I think this actual version could be kept alive while new ideas are discussed and a new shard is set up, this would give the shard a fresh start and would allow the player base to grow again while the old players keep their work from hours of macroing..

If there is plan for a new version or discussions about a new development , just let me know it will be a pleasure to help with coding and technical stuff.

  Imagine Nation shard is no more

As you already know I have been inactive for quite some time now. I thought I would have gotten my interest in UO back by now but unfortunately I haven't. There are several reasons for this but that doesn't really matter.


I first started playing Ultima Online on Imagine Nation way back when it was first created. Eventually I staffed there and helped out with scripting as well. I never played IN2 and didn't play UO for a long time. Not until I heard that Imagine Nation: Reborn was about to launch did I start playing again. I asked Coldrake if I could help out and started staffing there as well.
Unfortunately IN:R was too buggy and broken to succeed and that's when we got in contact with Maka from Xtreme Ultima Online and created the merge Imagine Nation: Xtreme after a while. I was a Seer there and when Maka eventually stepped down he asked me to take over for him, which I did.
The merge didn't go quite as well as expected though, so ultimately I decided to shut that server down. Which I now think was probably good.
After a while Shade (who helped me out a lot on IN:X) started talking about recreating another Imagine Nation clone based on the IN:X scripts. I didn't have the time to help him out at the time and I didn't think he was that serious. But I told him that he could go ahead and use the scripts and sure enough, a few months later he and Eru had done an awesome job recreating IN once again. By this time I could help out again and took a place next to Shade.
And while we are talking about Shade. I announced that he was dead, which is what I was told. But a while after I made that post I got told that he wasn't in fact dead. To this day I still don't know if Shade is alive or not, which is also why I never announced it.


Anyway, enough history lessons.
I've had a lot of fun recreating Imagine Nation and chatting with old friends again. To tell the truth I never thought we would hit 200+ players, but we did! I can't even begin to explain how excited I was when this happened and I think a lot of you were as excited as I was.
But, for several reasons the playerbase started shrinking. There's no way to tell for sure why that happened. I know a bunch of people think it's because of the lack of staff activity, but the playerbase started to decline when staff were still active. It didn't help that most staff went inactive eventually, but it wasn't the main issue.


So because of my lack of interest and Eru's busy schedule, and a few other reasons, I've decided to shut this server down. I will keep the forums open for the sake of the community though. Maybe Imagine Nation will live again in one way or another, but for now it's over. I will leave the server running until the end of the month, July 31st, and make a backup of the current world save. So take this opportunity to equip and brag about your items and mounts, hehe. Or just run around and say hello to old friends.


As I said, I had a lot of fun on this shard and I want to thank everyone, both staff and players, who helped this shard to grow and become a great place to play on. Smile


Oh and if you didn't already know, I had two playerchars, Saragok [Goblin] and Arthas [SIN]. Had some fun times with both of them as well Smile
Take care!

Looking to join up, but just wondering what the story is? Is it still going or what? Seems there isnt much activity recently in the way of news and stuff? ;/

Also i can help out with scripts, i make my own tournaments and events when im bored. Maybe might like to use some of them? Is there a script submission section?
