Well, since you are banned, there is no way to action this via a mud
connect. So, I'd recommend emailing the parties involved. If they do not
respond, check the domain and find out where these folks are. Maybe you can
contact their computer department. However, as most of us know, many
Universities ban muds so your response may be less than hospitable. If you
have no backups yourself, it doesn't look too good. Since they hold a great
deal of power at the moment you will have to try to become a pain to them.
This could be accomplished most easily by posting numerous flames to
alt.games.dikumud etc. Try to generate as much negative publicity for this
new mud as possible. However, I wouldn't make this a crusade. It may be best
if you can get no action to just build anew.
