Actually, your analysis is 100 percent wrong!
Without players there is no shard, thus it is impossible for players to kill a shard.
Players in Ultima Online RunUO especially private servers where there are many bugs RELY ON GMS NOT TO "have fun" but to be able to function.
For example, someone gets stuck on an island dead, how do they get out? Stuck menu? Well I can't access my stuck menu because I am unable to hit help. I can't have "fun" because I cant function properly, that is where a GM needs to come in and fix that.
UO servers rely on a healthy relationship between Staff and players, if at any point the connection between the two breaks, the shard crumbles. Therefore I urge you, Taran, to rethink your stance and endorse a less provincial outlook on what "kills the shard."
PS. I am not trying to harass you, nor badmouth you, I feel that what I have said is only constructive criticism. I feel that I needed to say this because the staff have a likely tendency to interpret my words wrongly.
