Re: MUD - What do you think it should stand for?
I have no problem with my MUD being called a Multi User Dungeon. I don't prefer it because I think it's a misnomer personally, despite the history, but I am not offended by it. My comments and questions earlier were directed at Newworld's statement about how important it is. I don't see it as that important or necessary. Documenting the history of it is fine but there is no hidden requirement that MUD stands strictly for Multi User Dungeon.
The history of it may point to that (I do not dispute that at all) but enough history also points to the other two uses mentioned in this thread.
