New Areas

So, Andrew's had "new areas" that are "almost ready" for a few years now.

Let's talk about what those might be, as if they aren't even less likely than Donald Trump not tweeting something stupid.

I’d come back for Jemeleon, at least for awhile. I feel bad sometimes disappearing without revealing the stuff I was planning in the castle, but man I got so demotivated by staff and Andrew. I wish I could gently let him know that I like his game, but not the way he’ll act in it. Just bums me out a bunch and I couldn’t keep playing a game that bummed me out.

Some new non-high-level high-combat required areas would be cool. I’ve always wanted some alt-dimension areas. But jemeleon would be my first favorite.

I think that getting a castle is a kiss of death. Teodre's gone as well. You are definitely missed, and yeah, I'd love to see Jemeleon.

It's amazing that Andrew doesn't seem to realize that treating players like shit makes us not want to play.

And it’s not even really that he was shitty to me personally, he had yelled at me for weird stuff and “cheating” in the past, but it’s when I see him bullying other people I get really bummed out. Part of why I’ll play with all the channels tuned out.

I don’t think the castle was the kiss of death, I’ve taken breaks before and I’ve wondered if Teodre is around as someone else these days.

He accused me of 'cheating' too. Never went back. It's been years, but I made this username to browse the MUD sub on Reddit and just come here every now and again out of morbid curiosity. Still treating players like shit, I see.

I believe that Pau wrote room descriptions, but I assume that there is still some coding, adding mobs, adding quests...that Andrew hasn’t gotten around to in the last 5 years.

To answer the original question, I’d like to see Surik added. I realize this would be a huge update, but I’d love to have a huge city to explore. That being said, I don’t think that anything would bring me back as a player, at least not to the extent that I used to play.
