While playing on EmpireMUD with a friend, I was told that after three weeks of playing there with them that I was no longer allowed to play with them I'd been accused of multiplaying. Evan, who is now Zeon had this axe to grind because he needed to prove himself as a threat neutralizer. He over-zealously accused that I had tried to crash the mud and then went on to accuse me of crashing the mud to purposefully dodge the situation. After I tried to prove that I was not multiplaying with my friend and offered my phone number and skype as proof that we were two different people just at my house, the admins shied away from that and stuck to their guns. Then, they even had the audacity to call me a liar! When I finally came back I was telling my friends I'd made over the course of time what happened and why I was gone for a while. Ten minutes after, Zeon rudely and arrogantly made this retort:

Zeon has transferred you!

Zeon says, 'Hey there.'

You bow deeply. You say, 'how may I be of service?' Zeon says, 'We gave you a pretty specific list of things not to do if you wanted to still play here. I don't know if you wrote them down or not, but you should have. I'm sorry, but I'm no longer allowing you to remain on EmpireMUD.' You say, out of character, 'Brent.' You say, out of character, 'oh? What happened this time?' Zeon says, 'You were told by Paul not to bring any other players into the situation.' You say, out of character, 'so telling them what happened is bringing them into it?' Zeon says, 'Yes, especially if you're outright lying about the situation. Goodbye.' You say, out of character, 'I mean people do get curious as to why I wasn't around. Was I supposed to just say nothing?'

Here, Zeon mentions a list of specific things that never existed! Could it be to prevent bad publicity? I can assure you the answer is a resounding yes! Do you think that I was banned from this game to prevent me from telling people about how this guy misuses his power? Absolutely! Why else would someone quickly try to silence a potential threat to their position of power?

So in review: This is a well coded game. There are many fun skills and abilities. But unfortunately the word of the imms is law, even if it's wrong, the imm is always right, not the customer. My suggestion: Run far, far away from this place and see if you can find someone who has a copy of 1.0 running.
