Ostard in Britain?!?
WesGill

Glen
very expensive to do. I'm pretty sure that they fixed this glitch.....then
again I could be wrong.

I don't know anything about bringing back ostards, but isn't there a way to
bring back boats?
*looks worried*
Is my boat stuck in T2A forever?

Nope, the pillars are working both ways. I do it all the time.

This is why I asked...when I tamed my first llama I was was happy that
I had a mount, but when I tried to ride it it won't let you. I didn't know
why since the book says you can, so I paged a counseller and they
said that you can only ride llamas in T2A since the people who only
have UO without T2A don't have the graphics to show a person riding
a llama, they would only see a person floating in mid-air. Does that
mean that "I" saw a person riding an Ostard and those with only UO
saw a person floating in mid-air?

Yes, that's exactly what it means. I actually saw someone selling an
ostard by the bank in Magincia the other day,(guy was asking 5k, too.)
and he was like "how do I know that's an ostard?" "how do I ride
him", etc.
Actually, the guy riding the ostard refused to get off (he was asked
to by the buyer).. Now I'm wondering if that's because he wouldn't
have been able to get back ON. (Can't ride llama's in UO).
I still find it surprising that the prospective buyer didn't have
T2A. Are there really that large a numbe rof people that haven't
upgraded to T2A yet? And why not?

Some ppl may not be able to afford the extra 40-50 dollars, or they just might
not want to in the first place.

It's only $6.95.

Actually, the guy I saw actually did get off and *I think* feed it.
I think it is wierd that it is overlooked by the GMs. Something like
an Ostard in UO causes a lot of commotion. You would think the
GM would pop in and *poof*, bye-bye Ostard.

You can go both ways through the Serpent Pillars now.
I accidentally brought a tamed imp back with me - why can some creatures go
through and not others? I'm assuming because the art on the imp is the same as
the mongbat and it probably looks like a mongbat to people without T2A.
I remember people staring at me the first time I brought back a ridable llama
(while riding it). I figured they were starting at the llama - but they didn't
have T2A and so they thought I had an invisible horse. hee.

Nope - they work. I go fishing in T2A (and mining) all the time and then bring
my load back to Trinsic.

Umm.. you accidentally said "a follow me", entered the boat, locked it and
drove it halfway across the world?

a long time ago) that just after UO went gold (some would say the start of
the 2nd beta) back in Oct of 97, I saw people riding llamas. But I think
they broke it at one point and never fixed it.
Hey, has anyone playing with inside UO seen anything to confirm/deny?

JNTF
can ride it if you don't get off, or I presume log off. Once you dismount
you can not remount. Not sure what happens if you take it back to the Lost
lands.

Well, one of my friends hasn't upgraded to T2A yet because he doesn't
have the hard drive space, and doesn't have enough cash to buy a new
hard drive.

You can upgrade to T2A for $7 through Origin.

Nope, I was going through one of the "entrances"/"exits" to T2A and I assumed
that my imp would stay inside T2A while I marked a rune on the other side (in
Britannia.)

I was just teasing with you. I hope you didn't take it too seriously. I
guess after my rants in some of the more off topic conversations it's really
hard to tell Im actually a light hearted type of person.

Upgrading to T2A is...count 'em *7* dollars.

Sokay, so am I. No offense taken. :P
My imp died later when insisting on fighting all the undead at the ruins (in
T2A), as did my tamed llama. Darn creatures running off to protect me when I
don't tell them to!!
Ah, well.
