some yes pro ang uban dili man cguro. from wikipedia for Ultima Online

Technically-inclined fans of Ultima Online have reverse-engineered the game to produce emulators of the original game servers. This emulation is legal, and EA is aware of its existence, although in certain countries the authors of these emulators are considered to have violated their software license by reverse-engineering the game, and may be banned from the official UO servers as a result (other countries don't allow restrictions on reverse engineering). To stay legal, emulation servers do not distribute the official EA client files, and the users of the emulation software must not charge their players to be able to play on their individual shards. Even knowing they can't make any money from their work, this hasn't stopped UO enthusiasts spending countless hours producing excellent free-shards that rival the official EA ones.

No matter what you say or what those Private Server owners say unless its a direct and offical word from the offical host that private servers are perfectly and 100% legal.
For me Private servers are fully illegal unless stated above,Modification of the server software code is illegal, using the game client or any modifications done to it to run on non offical servers is illegal.

But here in istroya private server discussion is 100% legal as long as you DO NOT post links or steps on how to obtain or join those servers
