I've built for 4 seperate MUDs. The first being a MUD that I was really dedicated to for a year and a half until the Immortal staff screwed me over big time.
Second was for a friend who had started up her own MUD because we both left the previous MUD. This quickly died.
Third was for another friend for the same reason. Plus I had started my own at this time and I guess I was stretching myself pretty thin too.
And now my own, which has been going extremely well.
When I hire new builders, experienced or not, I ask them to show a practice mobs/obj in a small set of vnums set aside for such things. So they at least get a feel for what building is about, and it doesn't take them long. Plus it's like a refresher.
There are periods where I don't feel like building, myself, so I try to be patient with all of my builders.
