After debating with myself, I've decided to come out and speak about this MUD. Even after all the invested time that I lost within it, I would still recommend it to people who are new to MUDding. However, I would not recommend it to the seasoned player. For new people, the layout here is wonderful to grasp when you're just learning, and there used to be a large influx of new players from time to time, which did make things interesting and even fun at times. Now, on to the seasoned veteran. I DO NOT recommend playing here. Be it you are attracted to RP or attracted to PK, both will get you banned here. For example:

My girlfriend and I both played here for awhile, then one day she was abruptly froze then denied. When it was inquired about, she was told that she was bad for RP, when just a few days before she was complimented for such strong RP ability. There were also ensuing emails that were sent back and forth, where she was then told that she was lying to IMMs, etc., but this is expected and is pretty natural.

Now, as for me, I did speak to one of the new Implementors about it, and was subsequently told that she had heard that we had split up. I was then offered to come back, but would you, the reader, want to be somewhere where your gf/bf wasn't allowed? So yes, this MUD falls under the traditional concept that the pbase is composed of the staff and their friends. Used to, it were not that way, but like everything else in life, things change. Maybe one day the staff will wake up and realize that when you have your cake and eat it too, you're bound to get sick at some point.

P.S. I will humbly await the generic reply comment from one of the staff.
