Where? Achaea? Or do you have numbers, files, and questionnaires from players of muds whether they read the room descriptions or not? It's not really possible to determine who reads them and who doesn't it depends wholly on the person. Whether they LIKE reading, or not is the first, and hopefully they od or the paradox of them mudding and not liking to read is pretty ironic. Either way, it also depends on the mud, on a hack n slash mud like yours, matt, I would say you are absolutely right that 10% of your players don't read the descriptions, on a RPI mud that doesn't have a huge playerbase but has intelligent, sharp-minded people who do read in the real world, probably 80-90% of their players do.
