UOGuide's continued growth is dependent on being able to support itself financially. This may be a surprise to some, but running a website costs real money. Thus far UOGuide's finances have been donated by a single person. But it is becoming evident that more money needs to be raised for a faster web host and increased server capacity. Over the past few months, UOGuide's reliability and speed have greatly decreased. This is due to tens of thousands of visitors per month viewing hundreds of thousands of pages.

There are a few ways in which a website can support itself. One is through placement of advertisements. Those annoying flashing graphics which sometimes include sound, the ones we all hate. It is our goal to never resort to such methods. However there still needs to be a way for UOGuide to support itself.

Thus a new plan is being tested out in which UO items are sold for real money. It is a win-win situation for all involved. The buyer gets UO items they want while UOGuide gets the money it needs to run. Currently all items listed have 100% of the proceeds going to fund this website. If this changes there will be a notification.

Items for Sale

Rift Pillar

During the climatic conclusion to the Magincia Invasion last fall, several Rift Guardians appeared around the Magincia Moongate. These guardians each stood atop an unnamed pillar which could be taken by players. Thus, there were 16 available per shard but some were destroyed before being picked up. There are approximately 400 in existence spread out on all shards.

If the item(s) you wish to purchase are not available on your shard a transfer can be arranged. An additional $15 fee will be added to the total purchase price.

Funds Raised

Thus far a total of $0 has been raised.

UOAM Server Hosting

An additional offering to support UOGuide is through UOAM server hosting. UO Auto-Map has a feature which allows players to see each others' locations. This is very useful for guilds to coordinate activities or friends to find each other. The cost will be $5 per month, no limit on users. Please contact JC the builder if you are interested.
