Which MUD's or Roguelikes have you played? Which ones are the best? My personal favorite roguelike is IVAN. Nethack and ADOM are also really great. I'm looking for a good MUD online that appropriatly uses D&D rules. I'm playing Achaea now, but it's a farcry from the D&D rules.

As far as I know, everything that works on PCs works on NPCs too. It isn't a lot like DnD, though. I admit I've been searching for a DnD-like MUD too. I hope there is one. I was planning on writing one myself, but I have far too many unfinished stuff already (I never finish anything. Ever. Period! ^^), and I've never written a MUD before. I doubt it would be any good. I hope someone finds a DnD MUD to post about :)

I attacked a knight and was killed by about 30 archers who just showed up, and then I attacked a fairy and the Friggin' thing "Straightened it's wings and slashed my flesh as it passed" WHAT THE HECK? This was naturally after I spent a friggin' half-hour on the piece of crap "rebirth" It's like playing with a bad DM.

They are considered by many to be much better than graphical MMORPG because the imagination takes the place of colors/sounds.
