@freemo Fly high like a griffon? lol I still play a MUD and try to keep up with the kiddos on Discord. Talk about cognitive dissonance..
@mushambo I have been slowly developing a MUD in my freetime. It uses plain old telnet as a MUD should but it actually uses NCURSES over telnet so even though you dont need any special software you get a whole text-based GUI out of it.
@freemo Oh snap, I didn't see this (forget to log in here half the time). Check out Aardwolf (MUD), whole GUI client coded in Lua. I've known some of them for ~20 years. Very tight-knight community...
@mushambo
Im familiar with aardwolf. What i am talking about is a bit different. There is no guinclient to download but has a text based gui through telnet itself. So you literally just telnet in and get a gui for free, no download.
@freemo And the key to being unhappy, for logical completeness:
Sing like a dragon
Invest like an ogre
Eat like and Elf
Crack Skulls like Tom Bombadil
Fart like a hobbit
And dance like a Dwarf
(Note, not a real suggestion: you'll be tone-deaf, poor, hungry, passive, gassy, and clumsy 😂 )
@freemo Were there ogres in Lord of the Rings? I know there were trolls, but I've not heard mention about ogres before.
