There's 1708 MUDs currently listed in TMC. Of those, I would guess around 1500-1600 (or more) are non-commercial. Yet it's only a handful of people (the same ones that have been at it for years) who "stick up for each other" (stick up for whom, DIKU?) in this case. So don't even try to portray this as somekind of typical trait for non-commercial MUDs versus commercial ones - the absolute majority of the MUD admins couldn't care less about this dispute, and the same is even more true for players.
