Hi, Kim. My best suggestion is to find someone you know or who would be willing to mentor you IC or OOC. When I used to play muds, my husband would give me info on the particular game-commands, interesting places to go, skills to learn, and so on. Neither of us Mud anymore though. Christina

For heaven's sake, is there something substantive to lessen the learning curve and the frustration factor so that no matter what rpg I may choose to play, I'll have real knowledge to tackle what I need to do. I'm sorry but I can't learn this stuff by osmosis. I also would like to know how to use a mud client. Mine (VIP MUD) can be downright frustrating. I need instruction and I'm not getting any help whatsoever. Regards, a really bugged would-be role player, Kim Friedman. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
