Re: New to MUDs

The most important piece of advice I could offer is that you should not feel obligated to be completely loyal to whatever game you try out. Don't be afraid to shop around among the many games out there. Just about every RP MUD I've played is full of people who are convinced that their game is THE best thing going.

As a new RPer, you will likely run into games where people are so proud of themselves and so comfortable and complacent that you're chopped liver. They'll let you sit around the town square all evening while they go off and do fun things with their friends, and they'll be pleased to tell you that you're not doing enough to get involved--when by rights they should be putting just as much effort into helping new players enter and thrive in the community. Even if you're an RP veteran there are many places out there where people will treat you like this.
