Re: Return to Mudding

Paul, welcome back to MUDding!

Without being too presumptuous, I think Threshold RPG is perfect for you.

Threshold opened in 1996 and is one of the longest running RP required games on the internet. We have an amazing community and a ton of really interesting content and gameplay. I will go through your post and explain how we fit your preferences.

Our STEA has tons of people who love to do just what you explain. When you get into the game, ask for an escort/helper on the heritage channel (just type something like "heritage is there someone who can help me get acclimated to the game?") and you'll most likely have lots of people willing to help.

The helpfulness of our staff was one of the areas we got really high marks when Massively.com recently wrote about our game:



Threshold is old school with lots of levels (no level cap) and every level is meaningful and challenging.

Threshold is open PvP but you must have a RP reason behind the PK and there must be RP leading up to the PK. We are not a PK mud, but we have PK as part of RP.


The clan and religion systems on Threshold are extremely robust.

Religions are an incredibly huge part of the game, with the different churches vying for dominance against each other. The religion oriented roleplay is absolutely amazing and has been a cornerstone of the game for over a decade.

I already mentioned RP a few times, and it is definitely the focus of the game.

Threshold's average usage is in the 60-80 range (30-50 in the super off hours, and peak in the 80-120 range when things are bumpin').


Threshold is high fantasy, medieval theme.

I'd like to think we are good and mature. There are three of us full time with a large part time and volunteer staff that work on the game. We are constantly adding new content, running events, etc.

With 16+ years of experience now, I think we have the experience and foundation to do a good job here.

I hope you check out Threshold and enjoy it!
