Hi John, Nope, I’m not familiar with Dungeons and Dragons. I’ve heard of it but never played it. So in essence, the classes (are those the character types?) deal with stats rather than game play? Yes, I did think that MUDs (or Muds?) were text-based, but someone told me that they have become

Hi Damien, There's a lot to cover here, so I'll try to answer a few of your questions and see where to go from there. Muds are, yes, somewhat similar to text adventures. In this case though, there's no "guess the verb" issue, since you can type help and get a description of what it does. On
