You've got a 2% packet loss before you leave your home network... that should bother you.

 

[Ryan]

Guys keep in mind the following information:

There are always going to be pockets of lag from time to time when you are on a shard with 500 other people online, from time to time I even feel lag but I cannot say (except back when we had the SP1 issue) it is ever worse than OSI

I will look into moving the game server over to Rackspace.net which is one of the better bandwidth providers around, of course it costs 10x as much but let me look into it.

Damn, you just had surgery and you ALWAYS are here helping the shard when do you even sleep?

 

[Juvenile]

Vendors restock every other world save, which means it would be every 4 hours. Is there a way to still make them restock hourly without the saves?

Vendor re-stocks arent based on world saves. (Atleast I dont think they are)

):

 

[Ryan]

Ill take this as a compliment.

I dont really sleep much, never have, I run myself to points of exhaustion from time to time, but its because I am dedicated to this server, probably to a fault, which is why I take it so hard when people tell me they are lagging.

I can't tell you how many times my fiance and I have gotten in fights because I was supposed to be somewhere but was working on a UO Gamers outage. She has just come to realize, this is important to me and has accepted it. I enjoy providing you guys with this place to play, and I try to make it the best place around.

Show me another shard admin with this kind of dedication and I will be shocked. I dont think OSI even puts in the time I do

Thanks Ryan.........I didn't even notice that. I'm looking into it.

 

[Kilros]

Ryan......I must say thanx man Ive only been playing for about 2 months but this shard is definatly the best. Appreciate everything your doing for us!

 

[Green Serpent]

Very nice. Thanks for all your hard work Ryan and staff!

 

[HoloIII]

Any news on NPC vendor restocking?

 

[Mark]

NPC's restock every hour like usual.
