Hey All-
I just thought that I would pass this suggestion along to all of the
people who say that they need builders. Find one good builder and make
him/her an Area Imp. For those of you who have tried building, you may
know that this could well prove to be a full-time job. I am an Area Imp
on two different MUDs and I can tell you that it most certainly is a
full-time job.
What I do is look for new areas at various ftp sites, talk to builders on
other MUDs, etc. Then I test the area on my test MUD on my PC. I remove
all the bugs and errors, then put it into the real game. Sound easy? You
know it isn't :-)
What I am saying I guess is this: getting yourself an area IMP may be
hard to do, but if you can find a willing soul, it will save you many
headaches. I even build in my spare time if I have any. BTW, this is not
an ad, cause I'm not for hire right now, but I thought you might
appreciate the suggestion. :-)
