I wouldn't say mass amounts of people are "leaving the server" in fact we've had more people on than recent weeks last week alone.

It's also no single guilds fault for any of this, this is just a situation of growth and balance.
It is a situation that i think everyone can agree should be addressed.

The server will pick up soon, the slow time is almost over.

People are going to leave regardless and people always search for a non self blaming reason. It's not me its them, so its not shocking to hear the new guild has 15,000 people and that the number one reason is player killers.

I started off under a different name on this server with no guild tag. I did not find myself having any problems aside from one EQ/MS member killed me when I was afk outside of Moonglow. I did the majority of my leveling in Shame and ran into a total number of zero player killers the whole time well farming and working up my skills.

Instead of looking at numbers within the new guild, one should look at avg hours played. Ultima Online is about getting over that first hump, where you start getting a okay supply stuff making death sting so much less.

Your problem isn't pks @Shane its that first hump, where a person is still deciding if its worth it. It's not player killers that cause him to quit, its a feeling of starting far behind well there is people with castles killing you.

How do you build up from nothing? That's a tough question to ask a new player joining a new server out of no where. Better yet as a game designer how do you make them feel like its possible to build up from nothing, because it clearly is. It's just that first hump sucks.

I can say with honesty that I been pked by eqms at the hedge maze (few screen from my house) called in 3 reinforcements (4v1) for simply attacking the deamons when another toon was trying to farm them. I didn't complain then and not complaining now just not going to let you say something this far off base about not pk'ing in dungeons or a fair fight. It's part of the game I realize but just as @Shane said I am 100% "average joe" explained. I work 11+ days weekends donate because I love and sport this game (I actually consider uof the real uo at this point) but I will admit my frustrations with things going on, hell I just had a 3 page debate on pots and archery in sugestions.

most hilarious part of this passive threat to EQMS, is the fact that thinking that making a guild cap will prevent people from playing with one another

I see this is how you deal with the truth -- just stop acting like you PVP on a red or faction when all you do is play a blue tamer.

who has 15? we RARELY field more than 8 or 9. at most... sorry if 8 newbs in purple are too much for you, maybe you shouldnt be in such a scum guild of blue griefers that no one wants to play with.

and how are things? Definitely fucking better than ever !

And you dont NEED a guild - but it's a mmorpg and playing it solo makes it 1000x times harder, especially when youre new and bad.

It is a mmorpg and interact with alot of people. In a more healthy way. But do what you want I'll do what I want and we will see what happens down the road...

So you want life to be easy in UO as a solo player? A MASSIVELY MULTIPLAYER game you want balanced for someone who refuses to play with others?

Do you not see the issue there?
