I'm with NewWorlds on this one. People will proudly state, all the time, that muds, in general, are failing. They're an outdated medium that's tough to get into unless you're really determined.

This thread was the first time I'd ever heard someone state that solely RP muds are failing, and that this is because most people don't like "proper" RP and find it a time consuming, stupid, and tedious distraction. That's got to be one of those definition of RP things that people love to talk about ad nauseum around here. At least on these forums, most players who post are RP enthusiasts. But I think the people on both sides of the RP line are tall enough to see over the fence and understand why the other side prefers the games they do. I play both RP and non-RP muds, myself, depending on my mood.
