I'm going to bust on both of you.

Guru first: Yes, the rules do say that, but in practice, this game isn't played that way. It's considered okay to carry at the very least your game mechanics / navigation type knowledge from one character to another. Certainly everyone not a first-time newbie plays SK this way, including any and all of the staff that plays mortal characters.

I don't in the least have a problem with this, but reading the rules helpfiles on a mud you haven't played rarely tells the whole story, including cultural differences. Even the players of two very similar muds often have radically different ideas of what good/bad roleplay is, for example.

Jardek next: While this game has definitely seen a decline in players, it's a big stretch to say there were ever 100 concurrent. Honestly, you can find worse things to pick on if you really want to than this bust.
