Re: LFM: not-so-stressful RPI

I second what Anaiah has said.

If you want a MUD that is RP at all times, then ARM is a good way to go. There are no levels, hardly any OOC unless someone is clearing up a typo or just giving a heads up for going afk. While skills can be a challenge, it is very rewarding, and no matter what people say about powergaming and such, they are still a fun part of the game to watch get higher and your character can then have a bigger impact on the world. Thats not to say you need high skills to make an impact. But it is a game after all, and I find that side to be fun as well as the RP.

IMO for a mud to be an RPI, it has to have general permadeath, unless by some divine means or powerful spell in a once off kinda way.

ARM is definately worth giving it a shot and reading the documentation, which will help you get through character generation. Best to start simple, and work up to something really special in your apps. Dont try to be a hero from the get go.
