At the risk of repeating myself,
, I believe that the Phoenix network should run some sort of MUD which will enhance the community, and give users soemthing to do on their shells. The MUD, as stated before, will be run locally, so only Phoenix users can play .To those who don't really know what a MUD is, it stands for Multi-User Dungeon. So it is, in essence, a multiplayer text adventure played through telnet or some MUD client. One would navigate hs/her character through rooms by typing stuff like "go east", etc. or even "e", and read the text that shows up which would describe the room, players in the room, items, etc. which you can interact further with i.e. "attack", "pick up", "examine"
It would basically be an RPG without any graphics. Before you say "Boooring.." and move on, remeber that a MUD is like reading an intriguing story you can be involved in.
