Do you love Fallout? Do you like text games? You'll love
HellMOO!What the fuck are you talking about?
To quote the website, HellMOO is a text-based multiplayer game (MUD) with a post-apocalyptic setting. It is also the best text-based flight simulator available. Most importantly, it provides a valuable public service by allowing people to kill orphans and rape corpses on the internet, thereby keeping such people off the street.
Sounds interesting, but what features are there?
Complete freedom! Feel like pissing on the corpse of a dead dog? Go ahead! Wanna tip that mutated cow? Do it! Want to sodomize the crackhead? Fine by me!
Weapons include: A nail mace, an AK-47, a katana, and a thighbone.
You can do all sorts of immoral shit including but not limited to: Killing orphans, necrophilia, drugs, abortion, scientology, and pornography!
Rape? Corpses? Count me in! How do I get in on this game?
Easy, just get on your MUD client and connect to hell.game-host.org at port 7777!
I have no idea what the fuck you're talking about.
Alright, just download
SimpleMU and install it. In the file drop-down, go through the new connection wizard. Simple!
Have fun!
Help me I keep dying!
It's just the dreams of before, you're not actually dying. Just read
this. When you get past the dreams of before, be sure to read
this, too.

I never asked for this!
Just punch in "telnet hell.game-host.org 7777" and you're golden!
How does this work
Oh yes, I nearly forgot
We use OSX at my workplace
Will be checking dis out tomorrow
When you got out of the dreams of before, get on chatnet! Simply enter "chatnet on" and ask away if you have any questions! Me and the other players will gladly help you out. Also, be sure to join a corporation, they can give you all sorts of goodies and usually give you a couple of ways to make money. Just ask for a corp in chatnet.
I've always been interested in MUDs, but I've never really tried them. Are there still solid communities out there or have they largely fallen to the wayside as bigger and more polygonal things arrived on the scene?
Lets not get ahead of ourselves here
There are quite a few large MUDs available. If you download SimpleMU and hit Alt+M it seems to bring up a list for you. I'm quite new myself so this is kind of just going by what I have found.
Threshold is also pretty fun but it's more of a fantasy game, we have a [Game On] thread for it.

Cool stuff, I'm surprised I missed that thread before. Looks like Threshold has a heavy emphasis on roleplaying. Does anyone know if HellMOO is like that or more like an IRC chat with other things to do?
HellMOO seems pretty laid back, I didn't actually see one personal really roleplaying but I'm sure you aren't gonna speak OOC in first person chat but there is a world chat that seems completely OOC.

That's exactly what I thought when I first started. Man up and play it, you'll adjust if you try. There's colored text and a minimap and shit if that helps.

Msg. me so I know you're from PA.
Also, I want in. Sounds insane.
I'm spoiled, and have my numpad bound to 8-directional movement in muds, since it's the default in MUSHclient.
