out there? I'm interested to know

I meet mac user players fairly often. One way I spot them is when they ask on newbie why greet isn't working. In our mud we use greet as a way to trigger dialogue between the player and the mob. I get a few new players who pipe up and ask why greet isn't working for them. They then tell me that when they try it it's making them do the 'hi there hows it going' thing. I have to explain to them it is a universal standard trigger that is preset in savitar that is over riding their greet. Anyway it's always a fun way to spot other mac users.

But as far as admins, owners, gods etc I don't think I have actually run into any at all. I found it useful being on a mac when we were developing the code for our mud, I was able to make sure it was all working as we wanted it to from the mac point of view. Had to run a few different mac clients to make sure all the ansi was showing up correctly and the maps were displaying right. Maybe that kind of thing is not so important on a code base that has been around for a while.

So if you are a builder or whatever, what kind of problems have you had? I used to be an imm on a diku mud and they had no OLC, and I couldn't track down any kind of building client that would run on a mac. So I was basically taking the code for an existing area, reading through it all and building my area in a text file copying the code I already had. sheesh!.. never did get that area finished either *grin*

Oh and since we were invited to blatantly promote our favourite worlds here. *shameless plug* evarayn

We're a rp strongly suggested/enforced mud (I don't say purely rp enforced because we're just not the nazi admin types) original code base. Classless system where you can pick and mix skills to create the style of character you wish, and though we do have levels, your advancement with skills is not dependant on levelling. You can stand around and roleplay all day and still gain skillpoints. Hmm yeah check the website if you're interested, we welcome new players

Pssst Jay. how about one of those preset listings on the world picker to catch the eye of new savitar convertees *grin*
