Hi, i'm an old player of Worlds of Carnage. I started mudding
probably around 13 years ago. I have migrated from small muds to big
muds over many years.
Anyway, I just want to say that WOC, it's a great mud and I tend to
go back to it through the years. I have achieved the max level there
on many versions. Right now it's a mid sized mud with many areas and
interesting quests made by creative players and immortals that have
worked there through the years. We have a small playerbase but its
nice because we all kind of know each other and sometimes if our rl
time allows, group and do big quests, help newbies, turn on each other
in pk, play games made by the immortals, etc.
It's a nice place. It's not hard to level once you get to know the
system. It's also very different from other muds. Here even if you
get to the max level you can keep growing and becoming stronger,
thanks to Blobbie´s creation of micro gains.
Also we run a micro tick system, you don't need to sleep 1 whole
minute to regen, you regen in slices of 6 seconds aprox. It's nice.
The variety of races and combination of classes is also another good
feature. We have many skills and spells to choose from and have fun
with. You can be either be a dedicated player (just one class) or dual
class and explore a wider selection of skills-spells. Of course both
ways have their ups and downs to balance it.
The admin are friendly (mostly hehe) and hard working. They keep
things running, fix bugs, make new areas, make new skills, changes to
races, eq updating, social commands, etc. a lot of stuff that needs to
be improved. Nothing here stays eternal, we are a mud with constant
changes. My chars sure know it. I have had my share of differences
with the admin, but also a bigger agreeing points. And in the end
it's a better mud even if it doesn't benefit my uber char, haha.
It's open pk, but it's roleplayed enforced. Not all people like to
pk, but some do, such as the vampire lords and some gnome magicians
with great power. Anyway i'm sure you will like it, try it out
sometime, look for Armand for tips, help, etc... not me... i'm evil,
haha. See ya
