I hadn't played since yesteryear, and thought I would give it a shot again. See what is new and what remained the same. Gave this MUD a shot and was not disappointed at all. Enough was familiar that I was able to get back into the groove again while enough was different that I have come back for more. The imms are extraordinarily helpful (without being enabling) and responsive to requests. The IDEAS board is _not_ ignored and changes are coming for the betterment of all. The primary user base, while small, is growing and very friendly. Taking direction from leadership, there is no hand-holding and doing-for, but rather encouragement and assistance. It truly is a fun place to wander around, hack and slash, quest, and socialize.
