Rivers of M.U.D. (RoM)
About
ROM is a MUD codebase derived from Merc, which is based on DikuMUD. Russ Taylor (Alander) released Rom 2.3 in 1993. In 1994 he formed the Rom Consortium with his then-wife Gabrielle Taylor (Satin/Antoinette) and their close friend Brian Moore (Zump). The most current publicly available version of Rom is 2.4b6, which was released in May 1998.
This server runs the laterst version of RoM 2.4b6
Rules
These are the rules of ROM. For other matters, use common sense.
All rules that apply to your shell apply to the mud. This means that any action that would be considered unacceptable by independence will also be unacceptable by me (KeeperX)
Limited player stealing or player killing. (don't be running around killing and stealing from each other all day)
Sitting around idle with a client open is hazardous to your health. If we catch you doing it, you will lose half your playing time.
No multiple logins, multiple playing, or helping your own characters with other characters you own -- by any arrangement.
No kill stealing. This means you cannot attack a mob (mobil object such as monsters, guards, NPCs) someone else is fighting, unless they ask you to. Also avoid attacking fleeing mobs.
Cheating will not be tolerated. This includes accepting favors from gods and exploiting bugs. If you find a bug, report it, then do not use it.
How to play
Logging in
To log in type startmud at the command prompt. That command will launch TinyFugeu, a simple terminal based mud client. The actual TinyFugeu command is tf <server> <port> but we created the startmud command to make it simple.
Creating a character
On your first login you will be prompted to create a character. This process is simple enough until you get to the customization portion. basicaly you pick a skill you want and add it. Skills are paid for in creation points and the more skills you have the harder it is to level up.
Ingame Help System
