Why are there so many Descendant advertising on Pandora ?

No clue..

And there is no advertising for Pandora on Descendants, or is it? :)

Title: Re: Whens the Shard back up?
Post by: Jupiter on September 12, 2012, 06:51:21 PM
Because Descendants is a shard that Kon (and other from different shards) have started. Its our sister shard. It built to be almost exactly like osi...

...Well, theres more than just Pandora working on it, from my understanding its a bunch of people who work on it and other shards...So equality i guess?
I still prefer Pandora.

Still don't get why it would be this long. Most servers when they apply something new its tested out on a side server than applied. And even than if the issue takes hours and hours, Most people take out the new stuff and wait late at night till the server dies down to try again, Meanwhile fix the scripts/issues/errors/bugs while people play during the day.

Last server I played UO on that had a downtime like this...well, it never came back up...hope this isnt the case!
Title: Re: Whens the Shard back up?
Post by: zaxarus on September 12, 2012, 08:41:29 PM
I agree this takes extremely long and this is not the usual way. Well, we don't know if there are serious issues and problems to fix or what is going on. Maybe all will be fine soon...
But a word from someone would be nice tho. :(

Understandable that it was planned but involving your player base in your plans would be appreciated this is our home too without us what would you have? Not trying to be rude just saying is all. We want to be included! <3!

I am now an old player here (i'll think)... I can personally say that Kon is doing its best for pandora...  I'm pretty sure the reward of this update would be great... :) My only point is a little bit less advertise for Decendant...  We are on pandora and we love this shard...

Obviously you guys cannot even wait a couple days. Which is a huge compliment, love the loyalty. But I am offering you another UO fix for our sister shard, built by the same team. They are 1 of the same to us, no matter your feelings on it.

Love you guys.  :P

Hurry Kon!  I need to water my plants.  I  hope they don't die.   ;D
Plus, I need to get my fix.  I don't do drugs, this is MY DRUG. LoL!
I can't sleep.  I went to bed and told myself I'll just go to bed early.  But I ended up getting back up again just to check if the server is up.

Should I go see a shrink?  =))

Once upon time there was one king. He had two doughters. One doughter was descendent of evil and left hes kingdom. Same time other doughter opened pandora box and this shit hepened!
Title: Re: Whens the Shard back up?
Post by: Cyrusmcvale on September 13, 2012, 08:04:41 AM
An update would be nice, few hours downtime to fix a bug is one thing but "days" and no information is another. A simple note like were cleaning up expired accounts and items that go with them to optimize the servers performance or we are adding a new race or new areas etc.

Our population on pandora is small enough right now and has a lot of new players that have joined recently that have no clue how pandora runs or its 99% up time history or were the only server out there with all the expansions running and how great the admins are.

I like the pandora style of game play, some people like skill caps others don't.   

Thanks King as always we love ya but throw us tidbit please :)

Cyrus

They say it's harder to stop smoking than it is to stop using heroine. I say it's harder to stop playing Pandora than it is to stop smoking.

Our madness brought us here together. May it also be the glue that binds us through this trying time so that we're stronger when it's passed. Also, I like spaghetti.

The shard simply must go back up. My wife is tired of me wanting to spend time with her when I'm not at work.

Last time I had this much time with her we had another child.


I can't afford another child Kon.

May i suggest you name said child Pandora?

My problem is i play at work. Without Pandora im actually doing other peoples job that i pay them for. THE SYSTEM IS DOWN!!!

You're welcome Nigel!  I can't wait to hear how it works out.  I didn't realize that the way the house is designed, folks don't really have a choice but to come to the roof to shop.  But the gate from the ground to the roof makes that pretty easy to do :)

Shoot me a PM here on the boards or email me at maggdalenauo @ gmail.com (removing the spaces of course) with your names in game and we'll get both of you set up with a vendor spot when we're back up.

I've never been real good with pricing, which is why I mostly stick to resources and crafted items on the vendors that I run in the shop.  And I have learned that it doesn't matter what the price is for some things that people really want.  They'll buy it.
Title: Re: Whens the Shard back up?
Post by: Horns Nigel on September 14, 2012, 12:01:51 PM
Good point, Its the stealables that I don't know how to price, some vendors are real high and others are real low?

I have stolen so many I just need to offload them, my homes are filled.....Nigel
