I seem to recall on OSI there was an option in the Tailoring menu that combined all cloth of the same hue together into a nice neat pile (looked like the folded stuff that is purchased from merchants). Nothing but a convenience tool, but all the same, would be nice to see :) (unless of course...

I've always thought OSI had it right when they introduced the Savages. Take a pet near those and you get dragonburgers for dinner that night. Perhaps a random selection of mobs that could do a similar job in RDAs would help the issue with tamers? Similarly perhaps some mobs that when provoked...

I would imagine that "deposit"ed gold would be fairly simple to combine into a single balance across all characters on an account. Gold sitting as checks or raw stacks i imagine it would be a lot more difficult and probably not worth the effort.

Can you hear any of the other music in the game?

I could give a crap about thieves regarding this concern (and I play one almost exclusively) - make it too heavy to steal for all I care. Just the idea of there being no risk at all for high-value consumable items seems wrong to me. @Dewderonomy - Can't tell if you're being a smarmy prick (more...

Assuming this MIB book will follow the same trend as the T-Map book (i.e. being blessed), i feel it's worth raising the concern (again) that there's something just wrong with the idea that you can carry high-value consumable items around in your backpack at no risk. Whilst it's nice to have all...

And when you have your first kid, you ding 120, and drop all other skill points and decide to gain cooking instead.

I try not to be annoying, though i do like to poke ribs sometimes :) Personally, my - (for lack of a better word) - trademark is leaving a thank-you note (gleefully entitled "*Yoink* by Mossop") after i liberate some unattended merchandise, and it generally receive a positive response. Though i...

*engages imagination* Parrying - Add a damage reflection element to parry so that enemies take some minor/moderate damage from physical attacks. And maybe a chance to reduce the impact of missile type spells (fireball, ebolt, magic missle etc). Both effects strength would be based on shield AF...

Is it possible to launch a browser using text commands from the UO client? what would be nice is if you were able to type something like "[wiki Animal Taming" and it would take you to that page (or search if the page didn't exist). The closer the wiki is to the game client, the more likely it is...

Hehe, keep your cash matey, I'd rather have another player on the server than 50k in the bank, I'm just happy to help :)

100% loss on a ping request, but still having http access is consistent with a traffic-managed gateway scenario. For example, I manage a network where we disallow external ICMP requests across the board, except for domain administrators of course. You can test this further by pinging...

Ouu lucky, i was just about to go to bed and thought i'd check the forums really quick :p Outgoing port blocking is typically done on the gateway device (i.e. the device that has the main Internet service plugged directly into it such as a broadband router). Most home users don't have to deal...

You don't flag grey just from opening the corpse, however you WILL flag grey if you open any container on the corpse (or take anything from it if course). I believe the razor default is to auto-search containers so that may do the job of flagging you :)

@Finch - I hope I don't come off as picky here, but I'd be much more willing to accept that as a valid criticism if you provided an actual explanation as to why this would alter the current balance, or impact play that is not already in line with the general thief paradigm. I may be just be...
