Re: old guy looking for MUD?
When I first started mudding, almost all the players I encountered were University students. These days there seems to be far more diversity in terms of age, but I do still draw in quite a few younger players.
A bigger difference I've noticed is in terms of geographical location. Back when I ran my first mud, almost all of my players connected from UK Universities. With my current mud, around 63% of the players play from the US, with only around 6% from the UK - and I can't recall the last time I encountered a UK student. It makes me wonder where they've all gone...blocked behind firewalls most likely.
