Re: What does "Free" Mean?

A claim can be both sensible and something personally valuable to me. Actually, if you follow my claims, the system is useful to me precisely because it is useful to a searcher, and therefore a good utility for the site. The current system makes no distinction among the vast majority of TMS's games.

If you plan to continue posting in this thread, I suggest you address the merits of the idea, rather than repeatedly and directly attacking my character.

You keep insisting on calling the four-box system "hopelessly vague", but you have failed to respond to the request of providing an example of an actual MUD that is difficult to characterize. KaVir and others have categorized various games, and I've yet to see a disagreement between any two posters about what boxes a specific MUD should check. The empirical evidence suggests that your claims are false-- the system is both necessary and sufficient to more finely distinguish among TMS's MUDs.
