I do some metal working IRL. I love the process of creating a functional item out of raw materials. It's a thrill unlike any other, and in my opinion you haven't lived until you've created something that you enjoy or other people like to use.

Now it doesn't compare with the real thing, but crafting in a MUD can bring about the same thrill for me, if the system is good. It requires patience, yes, but there isn't any enjoyment for me if there's no self-sacrifice; The MUD doesn't feel real if there is none. Add to that the fun of RPing a different person, and you've got me hooked. Anyone else feel the same way?
