Let's see if this post makes the link on the front page correct again (it was still pointing to the newbie forum).
My personal opinion towards room descriptions are quite concise, if I have to say it myself:
1. a room description should wrap at around 75 chars width.
2. a room description needs to be written using proper english.
3. use color sparingly, if at all.
4. don't describe things that can be moved out. Ie. don't describe a vase on a table. Put in a vase on a table.
5. as written by Ilkadarios, make detailed descriptions available for everything, but keep the default description short and use keywords that can be figured out.
Take a look at the TBA website at , specifically the menu points "specifications" and "why build ?". As you'll see, the above is more or less what we try to teach there.
