Nearly eight years ago a friend suggested Anime Planet to me. I have been playing ever since. It's a fantastic place. I am a die-hard DBZ fan, and I have played other DBZ muds in the past, but they pale in comparison to Anime Planet, and AP isn't even purely DBZ!!

The racial and class combinations are so extensive and interesting that it involves you in a way that no other mud I have ever played has.

The helpfile system is easy to use and more are added all the time. The players are as friendly as the staff is and all are willing to help. I rarely see a newbie in need of help because most are always offering it.

The quest system great. It allows you to build from scratch provided you put the time in; if somehow you lost everything (which I have only seen happen a handful of times in 8 years) you could STILL build from the ground up with the way the mud economics work.

And the best part of all (in my opinion) is the message board system. Notes and funny postits can be made by anyone, and the staff uses it to post news and ideas, but the best part of the message boards (again, in my opinion) is the idea section. Anyone can post an idea to make Anime Planet a better place, and I know for a fact from personal experience that not only does the staff read and take note of every idea, but they are logged and saved for later incorporation if possible.

All in all, it's kept me around for nearly years, and I'm not even the longest player there!!
