I played Pawn back in the day and it was kinda like that... just instead of beating the game it was DEATHMATCH DEATHMATCH DEATHMATCH

I did hear about those early day BBS’s where people would start running their MUDs on phone and on the burgeoning internet. Apparently the horror of realizing MUDs went from a few ppl at a time to hundreds was a shock

No one will ever remember, if they even knew in the first place, the glory that was MUDs of that era. Or how cutthroat and mean they could be.

We should bring it back.

Imagine DECENTRALIZED FEFERATED MUD
However that would work lol

@FailurePersonified

I have some open-source code im working on that is a mud. I havent implemented it yet but i have been thinking of ways to add federation to it.

@superfren

Cool, I hope you do. Its been a lot of fun programming it and I intend to (slowly) continue it. If you decide you want to run it or better yet contribute let me know, it would motivate me to work on it more.
