    @Jihgfed That sounds neat. Here’s something I wrote to intro MUSHing to my grad school writing class: MUSH 101. Might give you some ideas.

    The main thing I struggled with while writing that was that MUs vary so much. Even among MUSHes, there’s so much variety that it’s hard to describe anything in generalities. When you include MUDs/RPIs, it’s even worse. It may be easier to do a case study example of the specific kind of MU you’re familiar with (like WoD).

    The wikipedia MUD article has a good breakdown of the history of the hobby as a whole.

    Yes, I also pronounce it “Moo”.

    The most relevant piece of information here is probably the system you are pasting the data into rather than the fact that these are coming through email. Is this a cloud-based solution, or does your organization run it on premises? Is it one of the big ones or something nobody outside your org has probably ever heard of?

  • Please post a playlist if you feel comfortable doing so, and if you are looking for old friends -- try here! If you are looking for old enemies, consider a nap.

    Played with them forever and a day ago, was trying to find out if they’re still about somewhere in the ether.

    Every single person here who has railed against AoA’s toxicity had the same experience you did. That toxicity doesn’t always make itself immediately known, even if it’s pervasive just beneath the surface. Some persisted for years, trying to wall off the bad in order to be creative with their friends. Some even staffed there. There is a cabal of absolutely shit people at the heart of that game, and that will never change. AoA is their game. It wasn’t yours. It wasn’t ours. It’s a hard-won lesson that still stings for more than a few people who left or were forced to leave when the tipping point was reached. Just remember the good times, the cool people you were able to meet, and the stories that you were able to tell. Those individually unique memories may be the only good thing about AoA, but they do have value.
