EM Asiantam	about EM event
EM Asiantam	it's laggy because of players using illegal tools
EM Asiantam	here's the name
EM Asiantam	seems 10 accounts multi boxing
EM Asiantam	and because you leave them as they are
EM Asiantam	they are increasing
EM Asiantam	my client carsh everytime
EM Asiantam	I get magic storm
Mesanna	we do because we have no way to catch them except for macroing
Mesanna	do you mean telestorm?
EM Asiantam	he is asking you to add penalty to them
EM Asiantam	yep
Mesanna	ok
Mesanna	we check them for macroing
Mesanna	thats the only way we can try to catch them
EM Asiantam	so you leave them as they are?
EM Asiantam	no penalty?
Mesanna	unless we can catch them macroing
EM Asiantam	then why do you ask us to page GM
EM Asiantam	we do page them
EM Asiantam	if it is not a macroing
Mesanna	thats all you can do , let them do their job then
Mesanna	nothing we can do
EM Asiantam	you allow them to use illegal tools?
EM Asiantam	can you let EM or GM send them to jail?
EM Asiantam	I got client crash everytime
EM Asiantam	and telestorm
Mesanna	NO the GM looks to see if they are there
Mesanna	then we need to look at your client
Mesanna	or your system
Mesanna	Bleak can maybe give some reasons why you crash
Mesanna	when you teleport
Mesanna	do you do it when you recall or gate?
EM Asiantam	not only me who crash
EM Asiantam	I have evidence
EM Asiantam	pictures or movies
Mesanna	we are done with the multi boxing issue
Mesanna	I am asking about your crashing
EM Asiantam	everytume I get crashed
Mesanna	which client do you use
Mesanna	classic or enhanced?
EM Asiantam	classic
Mesanna	how often do you get telestormed?
EM Asiantam	every event
EM Asiantam	he gets crashed
EM Asiantam	and sometimes
EM Asiantam	he gets 3 times crashed in 1 event
EM Asiantam	he is insisting this is because of the multi boxers
Mesanna	No its not
Mesanna	if that was true it would be happening on many shards
Mesanna	its something else causing it
Mesanna	good evening
EM Asiantam	Housing menu
EM Asiantam	there are owner, co-owners are shown
EM Asiantam	can you make change to the menu gump to show is this account is active or not, with the date?
EM Asiantam	that we applied game time to the account
Mesanna	of the owners/co-owners?
EM Asiantam	yes when did they apply game time codes to their accounts
EM Asiantam	so she won't miss to pay :)
EM Asiantam	for game time codes
Mesanna	thats alot of work to do on our side
Mesanna	most just use a spreadsheet
Mesanna	if they have multi accounts to pay for
EM Asiantam	she is asking because many players left UO when they lost their houses
Mesanna	I understand
Mesanna	but what you are asking for is not an easy task
Mesanna	and we are already tasked out for all next year
EM Asiantam	she is sad to see many players left UO because of this
EM Asiantam	and lost many valuable items
Mesanna	so are we but that is not anything we have in our schedule for now
Mesanna	I will keep it as an idea
Mesanna	but no promises at all
Mesanna	=)
EM Asiantam	:)
EM Asiantam	thank you!
Mesanna	Greetings
EM Asiantam	about peacemaking
EM Asiantam	he is a bard and always cooperating with other players
EM Asiantam	however
EM Asiantam	he never gets points
EM Asiantam	when he does Zipactriotl or Void pool
EM Asiantam	can you fix it?
Mesanna	peacemaking is not an aggressive act
EM Asiantam	he sings for 11 hours at void pools
EM Asiantam	but he was out of the ranking
Mesanna	we have spoken about this several times
Mesanna	it doesn't seem fair you are assisting others to get their rankings imo
Mesanna	we will talk about it again
EM Asiantam	thank you for looking in to it
Mesanna	gretings
EM Asiantam	about pub 95
EM Asiantam	can you add Medusa scale as resources?
EM Asiantam	so we can create armors?
EM Asiantam	how about adding stmina +8 bonus
EM Asiantam	do you like this idea?
Mesanna	for medusa scale armor?
EM Asiantam	yep
EM Asiantam	adding scales as resources
EM Asiantam	we know they are hard to obtain
Mesanna	I got that part
Mesanna	we do not have time to come up with new armor
Mesanna	but I like putting the useless resources
Mesanna	as something useful
Mesanna	you can use them now for the lenses
EM Asiantam	how about near future?
EM Asiantam	is that going to happen?
Mesanna	lol its not in our plans at this time
Mesanna	but we will add the idea
Mesanna	to our list of suggestions
EM Asiantam	okay
EM Asiantam	looking forward to it
Mesanna	Greetings
EM Asiantam	I am EC user
EM Asiantam	there are many English instructions
EM Asiantam	I can't get them
EM Asiantam	do you have a plan to translate them into Japanese?
Mesanna	can you give me an example
Bleak	What sections are you refering to?
Mesanna	of something that is not translated?
EM Asiantam	Bride Vendor
EM Asiantam	toggle
EM Asiantam	how about ask him to send some pictures?

Mesanna	Greetings
EM Asiantam	about new quest
EM Asiantam	they are expensive imo
EM Asiantam	particularly on Mugen
EM Asiantam	can you look into it?
EM Asiantam	to make them same as other shards
EM Asiantam	for example
EM Asiantam	anchors
EM Asiantam	they cost about 3 times
EM Asiantam	from other shards
EM Asiantam	please look into it
Mesanna	same as siege
Mesanna	which Mugen is fashioned after
Mesanna	except you guys have a trammel
EM Asiantam	so it won't be changed?
Mesanna	This is automatic because of what Mugen is
Mesanna	no it will not change
Mesanna	unless we change the rules of Mugen completely
EM Asiantam	thank you

EM Asiantam	I am enjoying lockpicking treasure box in dungeons
EM Asiantam	at Exodus Dungeon
EM Asiantam	I am enjoying it and appreciate about this new additions
EM Asiantam	but there is only one problem
EM Asiantam	I think it is too difficult to lockpick
EM Asiantam	for example I can open lv 3 treasure box by magery
EM Asiantam	but when I use lockpicking
EM Asiantam	I need a bunch of lock picks to open one box
EM Asiantam	and those lock picks all have differenc charges

EM Asiantam	we cant stack them
Mesanna	that help with this
Mesanna	that you can find in treasure chests
EM Asiantam	yes he is using
EM Asiantam	but it ends up soon
EM Asiantam	how about let us craft skeleton keys?
EM Asiantam	that special lock pick
Mesanna	then people would stop doing treasure chests
Mesanna	lol
EM Asiantam	skeleton keys
Mesanna	defeats the purpose of putting useful items in them
EM Asiantam	according to him he get it broken more often than before
EM Asiantam	when you did revamp of treasure chests
EM Asiantam	and then how about make it lighter?
EM Asiantam	they are too heavy
EM Asiantam	we need your aid
EM Asiantam	for lockpicking
EM Asiantam	please
EM Asiantam	let us craft them or make lock picks lighter
Mesanna	we will look at the skill but doubt we will change the weight on the fishing chests
EM Asiantam	they are too heavy
EM Asiantam	not a chest, lock picks
EM Asiantam	they are too heavy
Mesanna	we will talk about it
EM Asiantam	thank you
EM Asiantam	last
Mesanna	Greetings
EM Asiantam	good evening
EM Asiantam	in Mugen
EM Asiantam	many people loves deco items
EM Asiantam	especially rubbles
EM Asiantam	it is very hard to obtain rubbles in Mugen
EM Asiantam	because we don't have many other valuable items
