I eventually concluded the Aber Muds were glorified chat rooms.  Sure you
can enjoy the problem solving and combat associated with the mud.  But
eventually you get to the point where all you do is sit around and talk to
all the other people on the mud.  Of course being American its alot
cheaper for me.  The good thing about talking to the people on the Aber
mud was there were standards of conduct and it required alittle
intelligence.
