This is the attitude that has hamstrung the entire MUDding hobby since it began.

Community? We are talking about 5-10 posters. There is no need to exaggerate and treat this as something with sweeping support. It has never been more than the same handful of people pursuing a grudge against MUDs they want a competitive advantage against.

The issue here is mud administrators having the right to describe their payment model in the manner they feel is most accurate for their game. Having inaccurate terms forced upon them is not good for MUDs by any stretch of the imagination.

If this is a site for MUD promotion, then doing what is good for MUDs is more important than doing what a small handful of mud operators think is good for their specific MUD. This change is only good for people who are in this for pure personal gain, like those who have admitted such base motives in this thread.
