For those experiencing NIMHmuck withdrawl...

Check out Otherworld MUCK, created by one of the NIMHmuckers with a Sci-fi/Fantasy theme loosely based on the Secret of NIMH (emphasis on loosely ;) ) I joined up to chat with a few other muckers who had been playing there, but found that the RP was very good... I'm planning on sticking around, in fact. And this from someone who swore never to get involved in another muck. ;) Anyway, here's the info.

Hope to see you there!

Heh, I haven't even gotten involved with NIMHMuck yet...shy, I guess. I went there once, and couldn't find anybody. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, I wouldn't know. I'm used to RPing in forums. :)

If you have telnet, there are a few topics which has got how to go in.

If you want to chat with people,log in as a guest (or if you have one, your account) and type 'where' and you'll see who's where. If you want to join with someone, type mjoin <name of character> (without the <>s) and they will probably send you to where the person is.

Ask someone if I'm not clear with what you think you are doing wrong.

I've never used Nimhmuck in my life, I first heard about it in 1999, and to this day I still don't really have any idea what it is... Could anyone fill me in? New unfamiliar stuff online intimidates me... Is this something I'd have to pay a monthly membership fee to, or that would require a higher connection speed? Where is it? How often is anyone on it? Is it like a chatroom?

I'm scared of cartoon-related chatrooms, I went into a Lion King chatroom one time, and everyone was having cyber sex... while pretending to be Lion King characters!!! :shock: YUCKO!!!

...so you can understand why I steer clear of stuff like that...

Nono, NIMHmuck's nothing like that. It's completely free (it has to be, since it's fan-operated). All you need is a Telnet or MUli client (I recommend the latter). It's completely text-based, so it runs just fine on whatever connection you have. And we've got a strict PG rating, so no worries about cybersex, yiffing, TS, or whatever you want to call it.

For more details, see the website: http://nimhmuck.com
And let us know if you need any help getting on. :)

Aw, now that's just wrong!!!! :evil: No, you don't have to worry about that.............. stuff on NIMH muck. If you did, I wouldn't be on there. Ick, and that's one of my three favorite topics! (Lion king, I mean). Wich chatroom was it? Just want to know so I don't bother going there. that's just sick!

Well, heh, how do you think animated chars have kids(not like they have to show it, but still, how else)? To be honest, it doesn't offend me...but I won't go any farther than saying that. Hope that won't get me banned, just thought I'd say something: free speech, right? People who do that aren't necessarily sickos(some are, but not all), they're just....different and misunderstood(hard to describe, really). I don't automatically judge people based on one little thing.

Few things offend me. My ultimate goal is to be at peace with everyone.

I'll likely never even end up on NIMHMuck, I'm always involved with something else: editing one of my four websites, working with my forums, playing games on Neopets, etc. Bottom line: I'm either busy or just lazy. :P

come now we all prejudge from time to time its just human error but we must reallize that in this world there is no such thing as sickos or wierdos. good and evil are a matter of perception. the only true way to live your life is to follow your beliefs. stick to your morals. let history be the judge of you. for there is nothing else you can do. and dontbe so worried about offensive material. as long as its not insulting or offensive i am sure no one will mind

You don't have to worry about that stuff on Otherworld either. There's a strict policy against it.

Bumping this thread up because of the recent NIMHmuck outage. Jeff tells me it'll be down for a couple of weeks. Tzolkin has graciously set up an area for the displaced NIMHmuckers to RP in for the duration of the outage. Be sure to send a thanks his way if you're a mucker! And if you're a NIMHmucker, hope to see you there.
