So, what you have is a Roleplaying "Enforced", hack&slash Mud. Yeah...

"Come on guys, let's talk in medieval accents and run about with swords. It'll be badass. We can kill stuff and run hog-wild and NO ONE CARES! Wooot! I luv PRing! Look, see that guy there? Let's kill him! Why? Because Ferdachi is a harsh world, and we all know everyone kills each other without second thought in such a harsh world... Or we could kill him just for the **** of it."

I still just can't justify it, no matter how harsh your environment is. Armageddon is a harsh (dare I say harsher?) world, like Ferdachi, so is the world from AL, Harshlands, etc yet if you saw a person running about like a ****ing idiot, killing every npc in sight, then you can be sure he would be dealt with in short order, why?

Because these are roleplaying ENFORCED, Mandatory, No****ingchoiceaboutit muds. When I see 'Roleplaying: Mandatory', in the MudInfo pages, I usually know what to expect, and that usually is fairly good, REALISTIC(at least semi) RP.

And I have still yet to see an argument that disclaims what started this thread, which was Bill the Naked Knight's review, and DM's habit of whining about every negative review they've ever gotten.
