Brody is right. MUDs and MMOs are two totally different things. What MUDs lack MMOs have, and what MMOs lack MUDs have. Its like trying to see whether a tree is better than a flower, it's difficult to compare things that are so radically different from each other. You can climb a tree, but you can't give it to a girl as a gift before a date, and you can smell a flower but you can't seek shelter under it when it rains. They're too different. Just look at the culture in MMOs compared to the culture in MUDs, it's like a bizzaro world. Most of them are just a different type of people. In the end, I would say that it all depends of personal preference, for instance: I can't play most MMOs because there is very little of a social element, but I can't play most MUDs because there is too much of a social element.
