When I first heard it NO ONE anywhere said it other than on EQ. It has since been adapted for all MMoRPG's(essentially any game). The word Uber is German and its definition in that language is almost moot, because its so different in English. Uber reffers(like someone else had said) to something of extreme value.

Blitzkieg) by differing routes. In the former we see the "br" of "hubris". ud is supposed to be the root which evolved into the Greek prefix "hy". "uber" comes from the root uper (over). Since the "u" of hubris came from a different root than the "b", I doubt that "hubris" is related etymologically to "uber".
