If the limit is 10 minutes and punishment is harder, it will just punish harder people who forgot they had macros/game running and left their house for whatever reason. Like for instance I forgot to log off last weekend when I went to buy a pizza (I was a bit drunk Thats my explanation!).

I still vote for 10 minutes, but damn, that sucks Jess. Over the years we've seen people play uo drunk. It's either funny as hell watching them, or they end up screwing themselves over. *Shakes fist at the pizza*

10 mins, though not to harsh a punishment please

vlvoted 5 - if I'm going to fail wich I dospent jail time recently for this id rather it just be a stat and a skill not stat skill drop and possibly 6-12-24 hour jail (jail seems most viable harsh punishment)

Never missed a macro check in all my 10+ years of UO.

It's not hard to turn your macros off if you know your going AFK for longer then 5. Even if you're going away for 2 minutes, and something happens like a kid spills something, or your dog crapped on the floor. It happened. You coulda turned your macro off and saved yourself from an even bigger hassle. Now you're frustrated from the spill, go back to the computer and missed a macro check. Now your ticked. All in all, you could of turned your macro off.

Get a macro alarm for those alt-tabbers. When your in another window, it's easy to surpass 5 minutes thinking it's 2 writing an email. Get a warning to let you know?


If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Maybe just make punishments harsher, especially for repeat do-ers.

oh please gentlement...

Actually if I remember correctly you can be macro'd up to 5 minutes after doing your last skill or stat.

Then why you have an average of 54% of player population telling to change?

Well keep it like that, one Pangaea for the kids who just have to go to school and play the rest of their time.

8 years ago I was like that too...

Yeah, let me brag about my clean record also.

Why the sudden change now? How does 5 more minutes make anyone's life easier? You can finally stretch out your legs and relax on the toilet now? Just don't macro if you don't have the time guys. Yeah it sucks staying near a computer to grind out annoying skills, but most of you choosed to stay with this shard for the challenge. Suck it up.

To change something like this, I said we'd expect at least 90% of the playerbase to want the change with common reasoning. But as many players have stated against it and as the score is quite much 50/50 there is no point to change the system. Players have spoken.

u mean players who already have everything macroed spoken..

its cool if you keep it, just doesnt fit 50% of playerbase
