Hi, MOO's have there own programming language called MOO. It's not very difficult to learn. I've been coding in MOO for about 4 months, and don't find it too hard. A good website with a mailing list, tutorials, etc is at www.moo-cows.com. Now, MOO is the traditional way of starting a MOO (with a Lambda/Gamma MOO Server, you'll learn more at the website I provided), however this isn't the only way to do it. If you were to become a really advanced coder and wanted to try building your own server, you could. If you want a more simple, easier way, MOO is what I'd pick.
