Heh, me too, I use tintin on linux for most mudding.  I used to use one called muddle, until it quit compiling with the later versions of linux.  I could probably fix it if I wanted to dig into the code enough, but it's easier to just stick with something that works, and although tintin was

Maybe I'm just old and set in my ways, but clients like vipmud or the others you have mentioned are far too complex for my needs. G mud is probably not much more than a glorified telnet client, but it does everything I needed to do, and it works beautifully. Just my opinion, of course. :-) >

I agree with you 100% regarding role-playing. It's just not my thing. I don't have the sufficient imagination for it, and typically, I just go on muds to distress and, as I call it, gleefully run around killing things. I think that's another reason I love this world so much. Maybe role-playing

Mud rammer is what I have on my iPhone 8 plus. I logged into Discworld during a portion of my lunch break, and it seemed to work perfectly. What kind of issue were you having? I turned off keyboard echo, and I honestly believe that if I were using my Bluetooth keyboard, it would be an almost

If it's muds you're after, 3k is a decent one, (3k.org 3000), or it's sister mud at 3scapes.org  Many ports are available, for 3k and 3scapes, 3scapes started out as a clone of 3k, but it's since evolved into it's own entity.  I personally hate muds where roll play is mandetory.  I don't

I would highly recommend the Discworld mud. You should be able to find the address fairly easily. If not, I will try to get it out of my mud client and share it here in a separate message. I think it would check all of your boxes. It is by far my favorite mug to play. > On Dec 1, 2020, at 2:45

Have you looked into Alter Aeon? It does have a fair bit of combat, but crafting can also be a significant part of what you do, all depending on your playstyle. On 12/1/2020 14:38, Cynthya BrianKate wrote: Hello all, my name is Cynthya
