I have been playing muds since around 1992 and have found a few that I have really liked. However, when I recently tried to go back to playing muds (I was swept up in the MMO wave for a while) it seemed like they were all the same. Same races, same classes, even the same areas sometimes! I could almost use my same alias, triggers, macros etc.

What really impressed me about 3k were the classes (guilds as they are called in 3k). Me and 3 friends started playing just recently and being in 3 different guilds is almost like playing 3 different games, they are so unique. It really makes it fun to try and figure things out and learn your guild.

So if you're sick of being a giant warrior or a halfling thief give 3k a try. I'm really glad I did. Oh, and it has one of the best communities of any mud I've played.
