[SIZE="4"]Let me tell you the story of XUO, a fast version.. [/SIZE]

First we had a small XUO version created by Mark and Bakou. This shard was created when Novus Opiate (the original) died. At this server you could BUY skills with money, instead of macroing them. It was pretty sweet. The PvP was way different back here, I won't get into it much but lets just say it was different. If somebody is interested in what PvP they had at this time I'll let you know that in a seperate post.

Later on XUO merged with Alphanine and disapeared for a while. When A9 died Corefailure arrived. Most XUO players went there for a while.

When Corefailure died the second version of XUO arrived. This version was still run by Bakou and Mark, at Marks crap DSL connection. They needed a new host because Marks connection sucked way too much to host a shard for more than 50 players. I staffed at XUO at that time, but I also staffed at a shard called "The Centre", owned by Jakko. Jakkos server was hosted on XS4ALL, but it lacked the capacity to become a big server, however XUO had the capacity to become a big server. There for I spoke to Jakko and Bakou about this, and got them to settle a deal - that Jakko would become an Admin of XUO, together with Bakou and Mark, and host it on his great XS4ALL host (the one we are still hosting XUO/IN-X on at this point). After a while Bakou quit, left were Mark and Jakko to run XUO. Mark however was one of the biggest cheaters ever to be playing Ultima Online at freeshards, so he had to be fired after being exposed (by me actually) with his 100 tubs and tweaked newbied and renamed weapons that was 1-hit-killing. Mark is actually one of the developers of RunUO for your information. Anyways this is how Jakko became the Admin of XUO. This server lived on for quite some time, and had over 200+ players on it. This is the XUO version that most people refer to when they talk about "old XUO" and the players like Spyro, Kragan etc etc.

After a lot of troubles with Sphere, XUO decided to switch to RunUO, that is how RunXUO was created. Some people also know it as "XUO2", but to me XUO2 is the version where Jakko became an admin. Jakko was still the admin at RunXUO, but he was very inactive, the people actually taking care of that server was Strife, Fallzone (I believe), and Makaveli after they decided to hire him. That server was pretty great, but after some time the admins felt that it had got too far away from the XUO roots, so they had to rebuild it. This is when Maka created his XUO version.

Makas XUO version lived on for quite some time, it was a great server with almost no flaws in my opinion, as close to sphere XUO (version 2) as it could get pretty much. However due to lack of roleplayers, and a need to grow even bigger they decided to merge with Imagine Nation. There were probably some more issues involved in this merge as well though, which I can not remember right now though. This is where we are today. And hopefully IN-X will become this times greatest sphere-replica RunUO-servers ever.

Oh well, that was suppose to be the FAST version, lol Wink Oh well, I've been around since the beginning of it all so I figured I might as well let you know the story as I remember it. It could have some flaws in it, but most stuff should be correct. :]

Hate
