This is a discussion on "Two irritations" in the Top Mud Sites Tavern of the Blue Hand forum :

I can't actually tell if I'm a petty, petty human being or if the two major things that irritate the crap of me on most muds are actually valid irritations. Do the following annoy you? A rooms long description that goes for quite a long time in a st ring, but does not format itself so that a word that finished on t he 77th char wraps itself onto the next line.
