I am wondering if anyone plays steady on Catskills anymore. I am finally going back to my old accounts and slowly eliminating them. This begs the question of what to do with the original Brazen Monkey Tavern.
THe old tavern is part of a grandfathered account that has four houses total on one account. Two of them (the tavern and the stable next door) are so old that they are inside the Britaine town zone. One other house is outside the entrance to Shame and one lone smithy house on Ice island.
Obviously all of these houses are on Fel. Is there someone who could use such an old account?
Please respond under this topic if you play on Cats and have interest in this account.

To be totally honest I think DoJ is done with Catskills. UO for many is old news and even there new patch did not move anyones interests. I would close it down.
Leave your client installed though because I think there are still people playing on Asgeroth Isle.
That could prove an interesting diversion.

i went back for the return to britania, just to see what was up. Catskills was a ghost town... I spent 3 hours looking for another soul.. lol.. the samuri style housing looks hokey, and IMHO this expansion will slam the door on UO for good. Such a sad death for the innovator of MMORPGs

I logged in for the free trial thing they had at the end of October and actually made a pilgramage over to the Brazen Monkey heh. But yah, ghostown - only town I even saw people in was Brit Bank Tram side. Was the usual fashion victims there. Sad to think of the Monkey passing into other hands but that's the fate of that game I guess. Funny to think I killed off the original XMackenzie at the monkey almost 3 years ago: Dead XMackenzie. Wow time flies heh.

Yeah it is tearing me up. But I guess I am going to close the account and slowly watch the Tavern disentigrate into the ground..
Such a sad end to such a long journey

After jumping through hoops for 3 days with the outsourced customer service(only respond to my inquiries at like 4am) I finally got my trial acct up. If I can figure out how to remove my young tag I'll go to fel and take a couple pictures of the old stomping grounds. Maybe make a memorial post lol I named myself Coranis after my daoc character since well Ter is dead

Well it seems Asgeroth is a bit dead right now. As for me, i havent played osi uo in around a year and dont miss it a bit. but if ya miss the old days, you can come check out Angel Island, Its been pretty fun lately. we usually have around 100 peeps on all the time. but ya gotta deal with thieves, murderers and the like. But there are some real neat setups here. like wearing items of bretheren. Where you can pick up some npc orcs, red mages, savages, pirates and such and rp against other guys wearin IOB's of opposite types. Kinda neat havin say 15 or so guys and ea. guy havin 2 or more NPC's fightin along side em. ;D

I still have fond memories of UO. I never went back for the return To Brit promo, just because I thought it would be so depressing. I remember going to Moonglow and there being people all over the place, or people swarming all over Shame and the surrounding woods.
Sad to hear it is so empty now, but it is an old game. I'm kind of surprised they haven't started to close or consolidate servers like they been doing in EQ..
I went to UOPowergamers to check up on the latest with UO, and it sounds like a totally different game now.Was kind of funny to hear now that it's at the end of it's life, they finally have guild alliances and things like alliance chat * shakes head in disgust*. Only came 7 years too late..
Guess it'd be like visiting the neighborhood where you grew up and the ol' mom and pop grocery store is now a Bockbuster or part of a shopping center, and everyone has moved away.. Ah well, still have our memories.
I think I have a collection of screenies from back in the day with Terina,jake and Zorr and some of my houses, soomewhere in my box of disks and cds.
