Why the hell do you need a staff to approve your forum account? Dumbest thing ive ever Seen. People who play UO nowadays Wants it as smooth as possible, and if they are thinking of joining a shard once again they might wanna check its homepage to see how the server is doing and maybe current playerbase etc. And they would also wanna check the forum and see how active it is, and if the first thing the players meet is a proboard that you need an approval from a staff member to even be able to watch (took me 6 damn hours even to get in here) and when i get it, there is not even a help / FAQ section.. I think most Will think screw this here already... and you dont even got yourself a HomePage ? The hell is up With that? Atleast i cannot find one..
been taking almost a day now to even get the game Going, it stops at connecting after i login and get the screen where i can choose server and when i press it it stops at connecting and just stays like that. Ive been playing this game for like 15 years and this is the poorest first impression ive got from a shard ever.
Can anyone give me any real/fresh info about the server? Is it stable? Buggy? Playerbase ? Staffs good/bad/corrupted ? Any oldies playing? Is the staffs having events regulary? Is there skill boosts? ( dont feel like looking through a board to find My info.... Hence why a HomePage would be of use...)

Most inconveniences are security measures taken because we were under attack by the same person who took down the last ZH shard, Zuluhotel Dreams. It's either a few barriers to get through for new players or having him here gloating and flooding the server with his scripts.
The server is pretty stable now that the attacks have stopped, fingers crossed. But its not the most vivid place you've seen. There are maybe around 20 somewhat active players around (I think) and 1 staff, Odin, making some changes to the scripts and having some presence here on the boards. Tyr is also around but just for staffing in-game I think.
It's a decent place to hang around though, get your macro going and do some hunting. The loot seems pretty well balanced and there are a lot of challanging mobs in the dungeons.
You get 2 skills boosted to 100 and one stat. Gold is slow to gain but you're allowed 3 clients per IP, I've found class crafter mining for ore to be a decent income in the beginning, maybe SoS are better.

thanks for the reply ironclad, 20 players and 2 skills boosted to 100 and one stat... doesnt seem worth the time to macro a character almost from the start i mean 100 in any skill you can have in a day.. And because of an hacker you dont have a homepage? you have it on another server that is well protected and same with the boards, and keep the shard on a completely diffrent and secret location.
I think i'll pass untill the playerbase changes and they maybe reconsider the skill/stat boost, if it changes that is.
Edit: i created a character just to see how it feels, so did my friend, he took one step then lagged out.... I took onestep towards the boost stone, and didnt get to choose anyskills i was teleported to i guess somewhere in green acres , its just green and i cannot move. oh well...
