Does anybody here play Dartmud? If so, please reply..I have a problem logging on...( It says that I'm blocked from the site, and I haven't even been on the MU*...very discouraging..)

Most likely someone, using the same isp that you do, has been acting like a jerk and got the address banned.

Try e-mailing the Admin of the Mud, they are usually able and willing to allow a new player to create a char, even if the isp is newbanned.
There should be an e-mail address on their website that you can use.

Your best bet is to post a note on the administrator's forum. There have been quite a few people sitebanned over the years; DartMUD takes cheating quite seriously.

Thanks! btw, if any admin's are looking at this, you should allow people that visit your website to post in a special forum or something. It saves alot of trouble and can help get new players

"Hmmm, how can we attract players to our MUD if the allowances our parents give us don't add up to enough to pay for sexually provacative ad banners?"

"Ooh! Ooh! I know! One of us will make a new account at TopMudSites and pretend to ask for help logging into the MUD!"

"Yeah! People will think our stupid game actually has players!"

"And, And, we can add replies to the effect that we're very strict on cheaters! Thus making it seem like we have so many players we can afford to pick and choose who we keep!"

"Hey, quick, everyone log on your multiple mortal characters and pretend to be playing -- we just got a socket connection !!!"
