Re: Reasons to promote/discuss your MUD on TMS.
Just wanted to touch on this, people absolutely should put their website/mud and (optionally) a little bit about themselves on articles. It's part of the whole reason to do it. It's the same reason people write guest posts on blogs more popular than their own - it gets them exposure. Nowadays more than ever a good article can be very powerful, particularly with the social bookmarking sites, news aggregators such as "Digg" etc.
On the other hand, with the advent of blogging it does make one question why they would submit an article to a site such as this vs just publishing it themselves or on their blog and you can't really do both without one or the other being considered duplicate content. I suppose wider exposure to people looking for MUD information is one reason .... it's called "linkbait" in search marketing, and it works.
