Re: Welcome back to me!

Maybe, I've always thought the term completely lame as it refers to Multi User Dungeon which is has its origins in D&D and Dungeon Masters of which father was one and used a university computer to create dungeons long before online MUDs came around.

Again as stated above the term MUD is exactly that. I actually think the term MMORPG is also lame as ORPG is simpler and more astetically pleasing. I mean who walks around asking their friends, "hey man, been to Death Hall? What's that? It's a Massively Multi Player On Line Role Playing Game, dude, or M.M.O.R.P.G. for short. You call that a short acronym? Yeah man, what could be shorter?" LOL. I hang out with alot of gamers and no one says that or uses the term except the people who write articles.

Anyway, I digress. I think the term MUD is a bad and so is MMORPG, so NWA is planning a global campaign soon that uses neither of these terms in a effort to bring in more people to our community. Hopefully this will build up TMS and TMC and even bring many more players to pther games here.
