Re: Your first MUD?
My first MUD was an LP Mud called Valhalla. Not the current Valhalla, this one closed in 1996/1997.
Things were pretty tough on that game - a stable connection was essential and we're talking around when 56k was super fast. The most dreaded thing was a "modem retrain" while fighting. A death took about 2 weeks to recover. Everything was black and white and when it hit 40 people online you had to wait for someone to logoff. Still, the depth of the areas and the balance of the MUD was incredible.
Oh, and you had to do all this uphill both ways, in the snow
