I completely 100% agree with Galens.
His ideas are brilliant and he is 100% on the RIGHT TRACK.
The shard should, restart and everyone should have 0 on ALL skills INCLUDING the "auto skills" [the 2 skills you get to 50].
The reason for this is : everyone has to work extremely hard for everything.
there aren't many people who are patient enough to work that hard for a skill, thus making it extremely useful to have wasted so many hours on that skill. Because you're one of the people who used time on it and you're one of the only people who actually "sell" the product.
And I completely agree with the monster/drops and everything, cause then it makes a more community wise playerbase.
You go hunt the scrolls and go pay an inscripter to make the scrolls for you, etc.
Of course we're going to lose a lot of player, but it HAS to be done.
We might lose the "vets who don't have time to play UO [why would you even play if you don't have time?] but we will also attract the NEW players. Oh this shard everyone started at 0 cool, I'll go give it a try.
Why did XUO die? Cause everything was handed off easy and the people who left didn't care, they didn't ever work for their stuff.
But if you work let's say 200 hours on GM mining, you're not going to leave the shard, believe me
.
Anyhow, I seriously think everything should be reset to 0. Sure we wasted 1 month of our lives, but we wasted it cause we had one month to waste..
