The "Status of the other RPIs" thread tells us which MUDs suck in which ways, but where are people playing in spite of it all, if anywhere?

I voted both SOI and nowhere. This is because I have a new PC in SOI, but I've only logged in twice and don't particularly feel like logging in again.

The results are grim so far

Not playing RPIs anymore. None of them have any appeal.

Esos is actually pretty fun now that political power has been balanced. By this I mean Nadu doesn't >>>>> everything else just for having barons.

I would rather play counter strike than any other MUD. I like Armageddon. I took a year hiatus from arm and I feel okay about it again. The issues are the same, I just don't care.

EoE, tabletop (D&D), and nowhere, were mine.
EoE is the closest thing open to representing what I want out of a mud game, once you factor staff in. Without any staff, arm would be. World's not perfect, but even if it's someone else's sandbox I'm playing in, damned if I sit still and let them shit on me, so... much rather play EoE than arm. Especially if you're into intrigue and politics, you should play an Enclave member (all it takes is emailing the mud to set up). Especially if you're into crime/pk, you should play someone from the slums. There was even a role call put out less than an hour ago, looking for a crimelord aspirant type with his 'band of vagabonds' posted as being looked for roles.

I went with 'nowhere' because I think I'm just over muds in general. This isn't the year 2000 when all I had to keep myself entertained was a very crappy PC and a 2400 bauds modem. In 2000, I would have eaten a shovel of shit just to be allowed to keep playing on Armageddon, but these days, if you aren't just as polite and fair to me as I'm willing to be polite and fair to you in our mutual dealings, you and your game can suck it, I have 100+ games awaiting me on my Steam as well as plenty of MMO's I've been trying to try out for a while now.

I've gone back to Arm. it might suck now. But it sucks consistantly, and i know what to expect. i know how to play a PC with absolutely no staff or sponsored role interaction, and have fun. I take it with a few grains of salt, and the high blood pressure that comes with.

I created a new character on EoE a while ago.
I'd not so much as left the starting room before I was being pressured to join Kavka. All I wanted to do was run to the shops and change out my newbie gear, but they wouldn't let me go until I firmly rejected their offers. The rejection resulted in threats. My brand new, zero hour PC had enemies before having left the first room.
Nadvasar stopped me in the street for an impromptu recruitment effort.
I walked away without a word and logged out, never having made it to the shops.
Arm continues to be the best and only choice for me, despite it's obvious problems.

EoE has so many problems. Mainly attributed to its unaccustomed pbase. The pbase their seems very.. I don't know what word to use here I guess like new? Newbie? I just wasn't impressed at all by the other players for the most part. I brought myself and a couple others to try some concept and we completely were shutdown by the ruling family. It was disheartening.
