I got into mudding when my mom brought home a book called 'internet activities for kids.'  This was soon after we got the internet for the first time.  It mentioned muds and to go to yahoo or something to get a list of muds available.  I don't remember what the first mud my brother and I played, but it went down.  Later on, when we were at my mother's office a year or so later we decided to try and find a mud again.  My brother started at the bottom of the list, and I started at the top.  I found aardwolf pretty quick. ;)  I showed it to him and we decided that would be where we played.  I still play there, almost 5 years later, although he has long since moved on to things with pictures.  Trips to the past are always interesting.

Hmm, I got into MUDs at Uni when a load of people there also played Zebedee....in 1995!

I have occasionally played other muds (Vampirewars and Vikingmud I got to quite high levels on) but none of them was as good so I kept ending up back on Zeb.
