Slothmud III is my first and only mud for now and ever. I am not a very experienced mudder like most, in that i have only mudded for three years and thereabout. However, i have seen many muds and went to try on many muds before eventually settling in Slothmud. I guess i have never regretted my decision to start mudding in sloth as it has a totally different experience of gaming unlike many other muds.
Slothmud as we have seen the small abstract is a mud where you can combine four vastly different classes out of eight of them. This is a very interesting idea as it can make your hitpoints, skills and style of playing very differently. For example, a warrior will tend to look for monsters that miss a lot when hitting players with higher ac. Mages tend to find mobs that have low hitpoints as to blast them down as quick as they can. Well, i can go on but you can see the rough picture that very different ways of playing can apply. Not only that, Sloth is not sloth without it's players as well as it's immortals.
A mud can have a lot of functions, but without any players, it's as good as dead. However, sloth is definitely a very active mud. There is often a good amount of new players coming in to try the game and ask questions. Many players, including myself, enjoy helping newbies and answer their questions. The close interaction that is around the mud makes it lively, and newbies are always encouraged to explore, search and find bits of information that will help them along the way.
There has been always constant additions and skills to the game. Just a week ago, skills like cover tracks, hedge maze, sharpen and the likes are added. Often, player feedback is very welcome and is often the catalyst to changes when the immortals deem fit. The immortals, which i am a very new one, are often helpful as long as they are not busy with things. Even if they are busy, they often will direct you to someone before they leave you. New areas like the coliseum are constantly added and there's always something new to find.
I will recommend sloth to anyone who is keen to have a challenge, a place to enjoy and simply a place to get more friends in this mud. Come join us soon and hope to help you when you login.: )
