When you look for a new mud which of these codebases looks more appealing to you? I think It's best to give every mud a chance and don't value codebase that much but they effect combat/crafting/equipment etc. nevertheless. I like both of them. Generally speaking, rom-based muds have better equipment system and lpmuds seem to have more options outside of combat, but there are exceptions... I'm playing Lensmoor(Rom-based but nearly all rewritten) and amazed by its complexity. It has almost a new codebase. Another question; When is it considered a 'custom codebase'? Do some muds pretend to be 'custom' to avoid legal issues?
