Mesanna	Evening Vixen
Vixen	My questions tonight are.
Vixen	Cities Treasuries are at dangerous low level on all the smaller shards
Vixen	At 2 million a week the trade deal is draining off funds far faster
Vixen	then those shards can put it on the stone with the trade missions
Vixen	please reduce the cost, maybe once a month? or maybe 100k a week
Vixen	and charge the players who access the deal 50k.
Vixen	I had to drop gold on the City's heralds on my shard to help
Vixen	Any idea on when the wall maps of other other lands coming?

Mesanna	on the maps
Vixen	*nods*
Vixen	thank you
Mesanna	welcome
Ilvania	Hail
Mesanna	Greetings Ilvania
Ilvania	My question is would you consider reaching out to the YouTube gaming community?
Ilvania	Maybe work with the Fine Bros to do a Teens React to Ultima Online 20th Anniversary
Ilvania	Or a live stream with Markiplier so he can adventure with his fans in-game
Ilvania	As a way to advertise and promote UO?

lkatana	hello
Mesanna	Hi Ikatana
lkatana	first of all great work on the pets love this addition
Mesanna	wonderful
lkatana	so my q falls on the origin store
lkatana	i got the kings collection
lkatana	but i have 13 accounts attached to my main account
lkatana	i would like to give all my accounts the upgrade as well as get more paiting and such
Mesanna	i have a call into the guy at origin to find out why
lkatana	but the origin store only allows the purches of 1 kings collection per master account
Mesanna	as soon as I find out I will let you guys know also
Mesanna	thats wrong
Mesanna	I will get an answer though
lkatana	every time i go to the store it shows kings collection and at the bottom it already owned
lkatana	when i click it only option it gives is buy as a gift
Mesanna	*nods*
lkatana	and then tells me to enter some one elses account
Mesanna	several people have the same issue
lkatana	would also be nice to buy the items in the uo store
lkatana	that would atleast solve my want for more ship paintings
lkatana	and such
Mesanna	I would love to have control over everything but we don't
lkatana	but would also like to be able to craft the items on my other accounts
lkatana	which needs the upgrade code
lkatana	and id hate to have to make a seperat master account for each code i want
lkatana	cause id never play them after i got the code and it would be a terrible wast
Mesanna	I will get it fixed
lkatana	ty you very much
Mesanna	welcome
lkatana	and hopefully ill see you in a few months
Mesanna	hope so
Mesanna	should be alot of fun
lkatana	and ty for all your work kepping this game fun

Mesanna	greetings elam
elam	Ever since the castle design contest was announced
elam	some of us have been wondering if keeps could get some love too
elam	especially the wasted sapce
elam	if nothing else
Mesanna	lets do baby steps and handle one thing at a time
Mesanna	I do agree Keeps are a huge waste of space
elam	if we could just get access to the grass area
elam	that would be good
Mesanna	no we are going to wipe TC1
Mesanna	and come up with a tool
Mesanna	what we have gotten is really hard to try to recreate for any castles
elam	I understand that
elam	on a side note i needed a GM recently and one came in minutes
elam	that is all I have
Mesanna	good
elam	and thank you for coming
Mesanna	thank you
Mesanna	have a good evening
Mesanna	Greetings Indrii
Indrii	Greeting M'Lady

Indrii	Hugs
Mesanna	*hugs*
Indrii	thank you!
Mesanna	Have a good evening
Destiny	Hail Mesanna
Mesanna	Greetings Destiny
Destiny	I have two questions.
Mesanna	of course
Destiny	One, is it possible to get a scroll binder: binder?
Mesanna	you want a binder for the binders?
Destiny	yes like a book
Destiny	like theres powerscrolls books
Mesanna	I really do that that would cause Bleak to go bald
Mesanna	to get it to work properly
Mesanna	with the gump work
Destiny	Okay I am just a hoarder so
Destiny	hehe thans
Destiny	thanks
Mesanna	lol
Destiny	Second
Destiny	Is is possible to get ingots as a future bod reward
Destiny	like we have cloth for tailors?
Mesanna	hrm
Mesanna	it is much easier to do cloth
Mesanna	ingots are very limited
Destiny	Yes I always wondered
Destiny	Last comment is from my guildie
Mesanna	If you are talking colored ingots?
Destiny	Edward, wants to know if you are single?
Mesanna	like pink ones
Destiny	yes iron and all
Mesanna	they game will not recognize those
Destiny	so I can use them for bods
Mesanna	otherwise I don't see why not
Mesanna	increase them in merchant ships also
Mesanna	would be alot good way to get then
Mesanna	them
Destiny	Would it ever be possible to make bods not take up storage space?
Mesanna	we have talked about it but never came up with a definate answer as of yet
Mesanna	to that question
Destiny	Thank you, that would make my life better
Destiny	Thank you for your time
Mesanna	most welcome
Mesanna	Greetings Capricorn
Lord Capricorn	hail
Lord Capricorn	good to see you
Mesanna	you also
Lord Capricorn	ok i have 2 things
Lord Capricorn	i hear talk of making power scrolls shard bound is this real ?
Mesanna	yes it is
Lord Capricorn	i would begg you to reconsider that
Mesanna	it was something we were thinking about for the pet revamp
Lord Capricorn	the price is going to spike as is
Mesanna	we have not made a decision on that yet
Lord Capricorn	it may well kill the smaller shards
Mesanna	we were getting feedback from the players
Lord Capricorn	is that the intent
Mesanna	Of course not, silly question
Lord Capricorn	ok next and this is for fish stink
Lord Capricorn	would it be in any way posable with gaining 120 fishing to lose the shoes
Mesanna	I would love to do away with those
Lord Capricorn	isent room for fish with all the shoes
Mesanna	*looks at Bleak*
Lord Capricorn	its insane
Mesanna	it is
Lord Capricorn	thats all i have mylady and i thank you to look in to not binding the scrolls
Mesanna	have a good evening
Mesanna	Greetings Jesus
Jesus	Greetings, what is being done on the PvP front to entice people into the voluntary system?
Jesus	Many feel that VvV does not have the desired effect, and that Factions is superior.
Jesus	Anything to get players engaged in consensual pvp again would be welcome
Jesus	Pardon my ignorace, I logged on from work and was unaware of what was mentioned
Mesanna	no the newsletter was sent out today
Mesanna	if you are not getting it please sign up for it
Jesus	copy. in that case i have nada
Jesus	*hugs*
Mesanna	We are looking to make improvements though
Mesanna	Greetings Notre Damus
Notre Damus	what is going on with Pac going down forextended periods of tiem and reverts
Mesanna	we fixed a crash
Mesanna	that was causing the shard to go down
Mesanna	if that is what you are asking
Notre Damus	how about an account or house inventory tool
Mesanna	we have discussed this before
Mesanna	like a tool to find out where an item is in a house?
Notre Damus	when will myou be functional and reliable
Mesanna	when I find a good web designer to finish the forums
Notre Damus	aan inventroy printout that could be put into database like exccel
Mesanna	I honestly don't have an answer on that tool
Mesanna	it's a big request
Notre Damus	we have had a lot of returning players join our guild in the last 6 months
Mesanna	thats good
Notre Damus	anything that would help guild management would help
Mesanna	understand
Notre Damus	thanks
Mesanna	most welcome
