Top Mud Sites Forum - View Single Post - Would you 'pay-2-play'?

I play on a pay2play MUD, and I have also paid $50 to the other MUD that I play. The pay2play MUD is very specific, based on a tabletop game which I play. It also has a great community, and after 1 an' a half years of playing it, I couldn't drag myself away from the community.

The reason I definately would pay for a MUD, even given the choice is that the people who make these MUDs have got to make a living. Would you go down to your local store, look at a normal game and say "What?! I have to pay?" You get alot more play time out of MUDs if you enjoy them for a small amount of money even if you do pay2play. How long do you even play on most of the games you would buy in a normal store? Surely not as long as you would play on one of these MUDs for a month? People put alot of effort into these MUDs, and even if they're not making a living of it, they deserve something back from the playerbase.
