Wow, so i'm not the only one who is thinking about coming back to Akara Essex. I haven't played UO is such a long time, I wonder if my account is still around, otherwise I don't think I mind starting over again.

well... As for me, its only my stuff that keeps me playing there, if i lost all my stuff it would not bring me back. It took me around 4 or more years to be where i am. ( <- veteran and happy to be )
I know that it is enjoying to fresly start on a server, but now that i am older, i realised that i don't like big neon colors + big overpowered stuff + high skills/stats + custom stuff... I had a good time âssed there and i stay there for this.

One of the things that keeps me off of other UO servers, is skill caps. Stat caps can be debated and what ever maxed out stats are can be different depending on what you are fighting against. But I always enjoyed training up every single different skill, even if its something I will probably never use, like those ninja/asian things. Some shards do allow for all skills to be maxed up to 120 or higher.. but Akara just has a really unique way of handling skills and stats. I am not sure if I have ever or will ever see another shard with scripts like this one. I also really enjoy the custom map, there are other shards out there with custom maps, but most of them seemed to have been RP'ing shards, with strict play rules and really strict caps. The few years ago I played last I did have some houses and lots of stuff. I did also donate, but its been so long I don't think I would ever try to get my donation stuff back. With the economy now I really not sure if I could afford to donate again, but if the shard does come back really strong I may try to donate again, just don't know when... The only thing I really love to have back would be my houses... atleast the plots to build a custom house, it would take a bit of work to get the money to do a custom build to the level I have had before... but its really nice to have something to work towards. And for that I would not care to start over, just something to play with, something to level up with, something to build up...
Right now I am working two jobs, and my free time is really sporadic. I really don't know if I will ever have the free time I used to really grind and play UO at. But if the shard does come back and there are lots of people starting from scratch, I think I could participate some at a guild of some kind.

I guess I will keep on refreshing the forums to see if any thing happens with Akara Essex, I will probably keep refreshing through out the new year. But between busy holidays and working, it will be kinda sporatic..

You had me excited at the good news part I guess I have news unrelated to the shard it self, I am getting a new 6 channel speaker set for my computer, I always used headphones or a dinky 2 speaker set on my computer so I am rather excited about this... can't open until tomorrow after I get off work and eat Christmas dinner with family~ I might try it out on the S.T.A.L.K.E.R games or Dawn of War. Or maybe some music, I dunno lol. Might take me awhile to find a spot to put all of them little speakers, lol.
