Starting on Thursday, October 24th, players can give feed back directly to the developers of LoA on the Experimental server.

I love that style of play, but it wasn't sustainable to a growing population then, it certainly isn't now either.
The appeal of this game was creating our own shards, but they appear to have abandoned that, and they don't have the design foresight to have solved problems that we've had decades to solve. I was really rooting for LoA as well.
yyou are not alone
This is completely false. Not only was there no population decline before Trammel, after Trammel subs increased significantly. UO peaked at AoS expansion, where the game was completely changed and item properties/insurance were introduced. It all went downhill from here...

You are right about the population increase after Tram and AoS exp.
I think the issue before tram was the new players coming in offset the ones leaving so you didn't visibly see a decline in players. The PvP'ers that went after sheep always had a fresh supply of prey and stuck around during this time. This was a period were there weren't new MMO's releasing and UO being almost the only MMO (of it's type) at the time.
