Free Online Game Servers

Well I decided to try out a free UO server called "In Por Ylem". Or at least I am trying to try them out. You know me I have patience enough to give it a concertize effort to get into the game then I start getting steamed. Well this server claims its like the old UO before too many of the Addons and weird stuff started up. I remember those days better than most, I started playing UO when it went live right after beta. In fact I was established on the Baja shard the day it went up and I played for well over 7 years on it with 3 accounts and 15 characters so, I'm no stranger to UO and all the stuff, political and otherwise that went on in it.

This will be the last write up on this one for a bit we will check back later sometime but the log in issues with this game make it too frustrating to waste time on. 20-40 minute log ins are not uncommon and all because your "free to play" or so says the load in screen on occasion.
