    You are a Japanese school girl. I am a rhino.
    You unbutton ur shirt while I stomp around in circles to inform you you have entered my breeding ground.

    Am I doing it right?

    Ha! My name here is the result of a spirited defense of Major Applewhite around 2000, many years after the BBS-world. :)

    The MUD games? Compared to today highly detailed graphics, 3D effects and what have you, those games were acutally educational because the virtual space was described using texts back then. There were mods responsible for creating rooms and spaces. Lots of good poetic stuff were written. Back then, me and my buddy were talking about that it would be impossible to put all these text descriptions into graphics, and look where we are now. I also remeber at the end of 90s, me and my co-workers were maveling at portable MP3 player that plays MP3 CDs, like the iRiver player. We were like MP3 player with a hard disk would be impossible because it would require a processor that generates lots of heat that is impossible to dissipate for a portable device, or some silly stuff like that.

    Obviously, you were never a MOD. :grin:

    I remeber it was a freaking typing contest. It is how fast one can type commands to move around and kill stuff.
