Regarding the stealable books in covetous *updated*

Wow.

It was me who emptied them.

At least, it was me who emptied most of them.

I've had a hard time getting, or ever seeing, the shield and sword (I think) stealable from Serps Hold. I haven't been to the rune books since Noll first made them known. So, I decided to go down there and double check to make sure I had the spot right because I never saw that particular stealable.

When I got there, I couldnt find the rune...I kept looking through the 3 books and never found it. I recalled to different runes, thinking I may have one mislabeled. While I kept recalling back and forth from locations back to covertous, I hit drop rune on one of the books instead of recall. The rune fell.

Immedidiately I thought " No wonder I cant find that rune, someone took it. " I looked through the books again and again and noticed another gone...cove torch or weapons, one of those. The rest were there.

I figured this must have been what Noll meant by only making the runebooks to locations available for a while and instead of deleting them, he just "unlocked" them and waited for a player to figure it out.

Apparently, I was wrong.

So, it was me.

I did it.

Yes, I have a lot of stealables.

Yes, I did ALOT of legwork to find them before the runebooks were made.

Am I sorry? Half and half.

I'm not sorry that I emptied them because that's what makes UO great...it's a sandbox world where players can change things. For me, at that moment, it was a unique moment that can only happen in a game like this.

I am sorry, however, that it has upset so many people. In the end, we're all here to have fun and if what I did took the fun away for some people, I am 100% sorry for that.

Best,
Mike

I'll tell ya what I never thought anyone would  admit to this. I give ya alot of credit, it takes a real man to admit they made a mistake. Much respect for the post.

I would have admitted to it right away if I even knew it was posted here.

I didn't do it out of malice. I wasn't looking behind me or scared that someone was watching me. I thought Noll figured the time had run it's course for the books and unlocked them on purpose.

It was like the ultimate "thief job". I was sitting there going "Isn't this ironic...stealing the keys to the stealables!"
