How'd you manage to do that? The 'click here' one always changed place. I guess you sacrificed a few lives to figure out how to get by it? haha

Anyway...
The system needs improving honestly. As it stands there are a few flaws with it, which I won't mention because I doubt anyone has noticed, but it doesn't do its job effectively enough.
I have a few ideas that people won't like but may have to be implemented as people find it funny to break rules. If it was up to me though I would just .wipe every characters bank on the account that was caught 3+ times.
I know it sucks to have it but you only have other players to blame. They couldn't be trusted and continuously broke the rule and the staff doesn't need to spend hours a day watching miners, fishers, and lumberjacks. I wish players played by the rules but people need to cheat and abuse the system and we have to do what it takes to prevent those people from doing so... unfortunately that sometimes means effecting the masses because of a few fools.
Don't get me wrong Shade, I fully agree there needs to be some kind of measure against this kind of thing. Unfortunately the way we have now works very well except it's annoying to work with. Especially when you get it 2 times in a row or a few times in 5 minutes.
Is it true that people got around how the gump used to be?
Instead of having the gump open a webpage, could it just generate a image ingame so we don't have to go back and forth between UO and our webbrowser? I think even this change would help some.
Glad to see you're giving some thought to reworking it!
