Hi fellow Mudders

I am an immortal on the MUD Deeper Trouble, a Tolkien themed Hack'n'Slash mud.

During the last few months i have worked hard on getting new players to our precious MUD.
The campaigns have been somewhat successful and we have gotten a few new players who have expressed that they love DT.

However! My reason for writing here, is because i have a sense that something in our start-up process might be off.
More than 90% of the new created characters never get past level 1, and nearly 100% of those never even leave the room they spawn in ..

I hope for YOUR help to tell me why! We want to improve and we will listen to any advice we can get.

I can recommend that you read this before you log on. This is most likely what the new players will see when they try.

You can write me over PM or answer here. I hope for constructive critisism and answers that will show us which direction to evolve in to become more newbie friendly.

Thanks in advance, to the helpful few who want to spend time on this for us!
