Re: Looking for a newbie MUD
Well you could try GateWay. It was my second MUD ever and I found it quite suitable as a newbie!
GateWay has REAL quests. Believe me they are awesome. Some involve some serious puzzle solving and others test your ability to explore and search for things to the limit!
I'm not sure any game (of any sort not just MUD) can really avoid being repetitive combat wise. GateWay does have many different mobs many of whom have special abilities. Some are quite stunning (literally Grrrr! I'll get you yet Dray Sentuin!).
GateWay has purely opt in PK with a PK flag. And that's a late addition, traditionally a non-PK MUD. No permadeath either.
Nice people? Well that's GateWay's strength! I think the lack of PK always attracted a more pleasant sort of person to the MUD.
Give it a try, it might not tick off all the checkmarks on your list, hehe, but I think it's not a bad fit.
