When i first looked in on bad trip, it was because this other mud i played was down. Then i started playin' BT, and i said to myself, 'What have i been doing with the last few years of my mudding life, this mud is WAY better!' Everyone there was really friendly and levelling was balanced and fun, but once i got to level 300, the fun really began. There's always stuff to do, and if you don't like to do anything, there's always good, interesting people to whom to talk. If you don't like to play or talk...go read a book, cause mudding ain't for you. Many systems are in place to make the game smooth and fun. And we're always changing for the better, new areas are usually being worked on at any given time. That's my two cents. I hope you find it as enjoyable as i still do.
