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.

Nice, did ya catch the link to the source? Most of the basic functionality is on place. Its cool because even though its plain telnet its NCurses based. So you get text based gui like elements but still dont need any sort of special client, just telnet.
