So as I bragged about on the buying and selling forums I started 2 days ago re-training Terek's Necromancy, as it was at 78%ish, and meditation was GMED already.

So I was as usually macroing and surfing the net when I popped out the game screen as I usually do now and there to check my player when I find myself booted from the server.

Now the oddish things are those 2:

1st my meditation and necromancy were lowered to 60% both (now how much time you ppl think it took me to get far as I was when I came back?) A lot of time.

(My accomplishment in the past 2 days were actually only gaining necromancy from 78ish to 89ish...witch took me a lot of hours spent FISICALLY on the computer to check Terek and if any gm would place a macro stone so I could prove I was not idle.)

2nd I checked the logs to see when the macro stone was placed and guess what?
You people can check it yourself.

26 seconds. Yes sir.

Now my problem is:

Since it has been almost 8 years I'm here, I am aware that idleness is forbidden on the server and all, and as I already said I often, and by often I mean every 2/3 minutes check my player while I do other stuff...

But seriously. 28 seconds? I cannot even read an article of three lines in 28 seconds, how can I be able to pop on the game and check it?

This is absurd. Also because UO doesnt provide a comfy graphical interface so that you can play and do other stuff a-side.

But 28 seconds is a scum. And I dont think I deserve my skills lowered from 90/100 to 60.

I don't think that's a fair enough time trial to give someone who is macroing the game.

We are the life of this shard, we the only few dedicated people remained and this is our treat? 28 seconds?.

Also, server is empty, staff is never on when needed, no players can get in, there are 10 active players, and we cannot even interact with each other in the game so that macroing can get a lil less stressfull, and this is it?

I am appealing to the whole shard cause I think this isn't fair for me and it is not fair for the other players.

26 seconds are too little time to even switch from an app to another.

Seriously, if you are trying to let the few ppl who remained active leave, well, you are doing a great job.

1. No AFK macroing - Do not leave your computer for even 2 seconds with a macro running. Macros are legal only so that players do not develop carpel tunnel syndrom, do not abuse this privelege or macros may be banned all together. if you are caught AFK macroing, you will be punished, which ranges from a macro stone to instant jailtime, depending on the staff and the incident.
Enjoy Terek.
