Absolutely agree with the above post. Maybe my problem here was misidentifying who the readership was on the Mudlet forum. I was working on the basis that it was a solid cross section of client developers, power users and mud administrators. If the representation from mud administrators is very low ...

I never said anything of the sort. Ive said I feel it is capable. Ive said that the mudlet dev team arent the people to do doing what im suggesting as thats not their focus. Youre having an argument with yourself as I havent said any of what youre attributing to me.

Ive said:

* Mudlet is excellent ...

Another helpful reply. If youd at any point listened to what Id saying youd stop beating this dead horse. Guess what? I know its easier to design for one mud than multiple.

The reason I even raised this thread was to highlight that there is a real opportunity here and see if there was anyone who had the graphical skills to sieze it ...

To make this point again, im not saying Mudlet should do this natively. If i was then sure, I missed the point. But im not, im saying that Mudlet is not at present meeting the ui requirements that many new players will expect, not because it CANT but because nobody HAS.
How can you be sure of ...

Id argue that rather than missing the point, I'm highlighting that the possibilities have run far ahead of the implementation. Its great to have a powerful client that can do wonderful things. Im highlighting that the wonderful things tend to fall very far short of what is needed for new users. As I ...

Hi,
Long long time mud admin here who has been watching the evolution of various mud clients over the years with great despondency. Back in the early 1990's Zmud launched their client, which was a great innovation, and which changed mudding for many people in a positive way. 20 years later the vast ...
