| Everyone here has valid points so I figure I'd chime in. I appreciate Bob keeping the "if people are still playing...." promise however my personal opinion is that this isn't the case any longer. I've checked server and forums from time to time hoping to be surprised while presented a dead... |

| Welcome to DreamHost. If we had considerably more traffic to download the game I'd offload it to Amazon or something. |

| *sigh* attempting to shut us down gets you absolutely zero piety points. Obsidian has been running for over 10 years currently and never received a Cease and Desist order from EA or any of their child companies over that time. As of this point we are and have been the longest running UO shard so the... |

| I'm gonna see if I can't add some routines to auto reboot the server after a critical crash. Obviously squashing the bugs would be the priority, but I'll do my best to cook something up. |

| From the very beginning that has always been a project of Mr. Cybervic. While he is still around incognito, marriage, a house and work has taken up most his free time of late. I'd love to update it personally but honestly both him and myself are so knowledgeable of these changes as most were impleme... |

| Every time I am asked why the shard remains online in my absence I have always had a simple answer: "As long as people are enjoying my creation and it still functions, I'll keep it online." People get frustrated because I've not been around in the capacity I was previous and equate it to t... |

Exciting as it may be, it gets better! Previously need accounts took anywhere from 1 min - 1 hour to fully activa... |

| As some of your may already know, Obsidian was initially created way back in 1999. CyberVic and myself having been long time UO addicts since the beta decided that we wanted to try our hand at running our own server. Initially it was no more then an experiment and the Obsidian's predecessor launched... |

| What's with all these Golems looking like hats when all they're trying to do is wear a hat? Well the latest episode of "Queer Eye for the Straight Golem" described this practice as a fashion faux pas and completely "not scary" for today's monster and minion. Fortunately they have... |

| As many of you noticed, Obsidian was down for several hours today for some upgrading and overall maintenance. GM Bob informed me that there has been considerable lag on the server for awhile, and in my opinion that is unacceptable. Since yesterday the entire shard has been migrated to brand new hard... |

| Two updates back to back?!? Yes I guess I'm tend to be crazy like that, but please don't tell my mother. There have been considerable network upgrades over the past two days. First off, Obsidian has doubled it's internet pipe. We are now sitting on a fat tube of 30/5. Additionally we have upgraded o... |

| Just wanted to let everyone know that I ran a massive user account maintenance cycle on user accounts. In short, there were a bunch of spam accounts created that were doing nothing more but bogging down the board. Hopefully with some new code I added today that'll be a thing of the past. In short, a... |
