=What is a MUD?=<br />
MUD is short for Multi-User Dungeon/Dimension. They are the precursors to modern-day MMORPG's. Compared to such games, MUD's take next to no resources to operate or play. Almost any computer on any OS can connect to and play a MUD. They are entirely text based experiences, so pack your reading and typing skills for the journey ahead!<br />
==Ansalon==<br />
[http://ansalonmud.com Ansalon] is a MUD that has been around practically forever. I myself have played on and off there since 1998 or 1999. It's got a ton of areas, plenty of races, and a nice variety of classes. The code is updated several times a week and the players are generally friendly. <br />
<br />
Get a MUD client. <br />
*[http://www.zuggsoft.com/zmud/zmudinfo.htm Zmud] is good client for Windows XP based computers.<br />
*[http://www.gammon.com.au/mushclient/mushclient.htm Mushclient] is a very and flexible client that actually runs on Vista. Woot woot.<br />
*Gmud is easy to run, but lacks many of the more advanced features of Zmud and Mushclient.<br />
*[http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ Putty] will work, but not too well.<br />
*The Ansalon Website has a [http://ansalonmud.com/javacon/index.html Java client] that you may have to use if your at work/school. (Do this at your own risk)<br />
*Mudgamers has a really good [http://mudgamers.com/2008/09/11/ansalon-mud/ Java Client]. Just click the "PLAY NOW" button that page. <br />
*Telnet is a last resort. It comes standard with most versions of Windows.<br />
<br />
Ansalon's address is ansalonmud.com, port: 8679. Enter these into the appropriate fields of your MUD client and connect at will.<br />
