Newbie Guide
This page is in progress, but will hopefully be an up-to-date and printable resource for newbies to Achaea when complete. The point here is not to give exhaustive, in-depth information, but just enough for a newbie to be able to use, and to give links and pointers for where to look for in-depth information should it be desired.
What are MUDs?
A MUD(or MUCK, MUSH, MUG, MOO, MMOG, et cetera) is most-commonly referred to in the verbose as a Multi-User Dungeon. In a MUD, you can find interaction with many other players in addition to computer-controlled personas, or denizens, as we like to call them.
A MUD has rooms, or locations. If, at any time, you are logged on, you are standing in a room. Many of the specifics of this MUD will be delved into enough for you to learn, so we won't go into too many details here.
