Hey everyone,
just wanted to drop you a note and tell you to stop by the mud if your interested in building some scifi christian areas. Right now the mud is stock dawn of time 1.69r. So thats fantasy <ick> right now. But we are implementing the changes in the fantasy game in prep for the scifi version. Hopeing to find some good christian builders. Open a dos window or use your favorite telnet program or mud client and type telnet www.eternallifegames.com 4000 or just goto www.eternallifegames.com port 4000 and you will be in our temporary game.

Interesting. Just finished the tutorial, maybe sometime tommorrow, I'll do a bit of playing. First time playing a MUD, BTW.

Cobra and all,
I do want to warn you as a first time mudder, that the VAST majority of muds out there are stock, sinful, pagan, and out and out something a christian shouldnt be messing with. I know that is a harsh comdemnation of most muds but 99% of them are anti-biblical and just plain bad to mess with. In fact there are a lot of things that i am finding out about the stock dot codebase that are having to be changed in order to make our mud acceptable unto God. I urge you to seek ONLY christian oriented text games/muds to play. DO not get into general mudding. My site is a witnessing tool primarily for those ALREADY into mudding. Still, if you have to play a mud, ours will be the one to play once we go live with the scifi version. There is another fantasy mud calling itself christian but i dont know much about it. It had some bible verses and a pray for casting spells verb but that was about all from a christian viewpoint that i saw. Unfortunately, from my brief look at it, it seemed like any other mud with a bit of christian window dressing to me. Also as I was saying our mud (starcross) right now is fantasy and the darn codebase is hard to change into something acceptable to God. The game itself is like any other mud cept we are implementing many changes in prep for putting up the scifi version. I have to say that its not something we really want
to be as our flagship product right now. The scifi version will be much more to our likeing. To illustrate one of the very discusting parts of the fantasy genre that the current codebase allows For example, last night i found out that you can kill "children" mobiles in the game and that when they die, it leaves a pile of entrails on the ground. We have got to do something about that for sure. Such is so appalling. Utterly non-christian and something that will NOT be in our final scifi mud game if i can help it. Thats just one example of the filth that is in typical mud games and unfortunately since we are running the stock version of dot right in order to build our scifi game in the background, its in ours too.
I pray that i can eliminate such stuff from the game NOW so that the temporary game isnt so bad to play till we get our REAL game available. So your welcome to mess around in the temp game but be aware that its very muchly so like any other mud right now and its got some very disgusting features in it i am finding out. sigh.

Reading the notes I got in the MUD:

"However, IN REAL LIFE, once your SAVED, you can NEVER be lost again."

This is one of those things that sparks debate on this forum, as not everybody agrees with this statement . . .

Well i will let yall debate it. Its what we are gonna be presenting in the mud if asked i guess. Anyway, i want to publically thank you for your code fix to the dot system today. Now we no longer have to have children mobiles that can be killed. I appreciate it beyound words. I was so humiliated to find that stuff was in the mud. God bless you Cobra!

Well, well, well . . .

The coincidences that happen in this world . . .

I started to use the AL client to play the MUD, when I stumbled across the author's website (*author of the webpage, that is, not the client). Apparently, he's got some Christian links (grow->christian resources), including apologetics and even creationism links! Perhaps I should introduce him to christiancoders?
