I like the No "system changing" occured. You asked what role-playing is, and I told you. [snip] What you describe sounds like what some muds like to call "semi-role- playing". That is, there's not much role-playing, but there are things like racial hatreds etc in the code (although you will find that players will group with their "enemy" races if they happen to be friends outside the game). Now now..this is just an example. I am *not* changing your plan and trying to suggest you put in racial hatreds or something. -shake- > <====> I ask again, WHAT IS ROLEPLAYING ANYWAYS??? <====> You can keep asking until you get a definition you like, or you can simply come up with a more accurate description for your mud. What you are setting up is *not* a role-playing mud, and if you use that term to people who play "serious" role-playing Muds or Mushes you will leave them confused. If that's what you want, by all means go ahead. -K. +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://cspo.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list_faq.html | +-----------------------------------------------------------+ From goamkows@kirk.geog.sc.edu Wed, 21 Aug 96 12:43:25 EDT X-SystemInfo: MyE-Mail: EMail X-Message-No: 3935 (database) From: goamkows <goamkows@kirk.geog.sc.edu> To: circle <circle@cspo.queensu.ca> Subject: [Circle] admin mud Date: Wed, 21 Aug 96 17:43:00 Message-ID: <CMM.0.90.0.840645805.goamkows@scotty.geog.sc.edu> Reply-To: goamkows@kirk.geog.sc.edu (goamkows) X-POP3-Rcpt: lk4150@per Return-Path: <@QUCDN.QueensU.CA:owner-circle@cspo.queensu.ca> Received: from QUCDN.QueensU.CA (QUCDN.QueensU.CA [130.15.126.2]) by per.cybercity.dk (8.6.12/8.6.12) with SMTP id TAA15780 for <lk4150@krull.dk>; Wed, 21 Aug 1996 19:04:20 +0200 Received: from cspo.queensu.ca by QUCDN.QueensU.CA (IBM VM SMTP V2R2) with TCP;Wed, 21 Aug 96 13:09:58 EDT Received: by cspo.queensu.ca (SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4)id MAA17129; Wed, 21 Aug 1996 12:43:11 -0500 Received: from otis.cla.sc.edu by cspo.queensu.ca (SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4) Received: from kirk.geog.sc.edu by otis.cla.sc.edu (4.1/SMI-4.1) Received: from scotty.geog.sc.edu by kirk.geog.sc.edu (4.1/SMI-4.1) Sender: owner-circle@cspo.queensu.ca Precedence: bulk what happened to the circle admin mud?
