The tbaMUD vision:

TbaMUD's vision is to provide the MUDding community a stable and

functional codebase that includes an in-depth World and help files

that makes it ready to be molded into a custom MUD by its coders and

builders. We also provide multiple resources to allow for feedback,

contribution, and the sharing of ideas within the MUDding community

to ensure constant development and improvements.

TbaMUD is highly developed from the programming side, but highly

UNdeveloped on the game-playing side. So, if you're looking for a

huge MUD with billions of spells, skills, classes, and races, tbaMUD

will disappoint you. TbaMUD still has only the 4 original Diku

classes, the original spells, and the original skills. On the other

hand, if you're looking for a highly stable, developed, organized,

and well documented "blank slate" MUD on which you can put your OWN

ideas for spells, skills, and classes, then tbaMUD is what what you

are looking for.

TBA's Vision:

The most challenging aspect of running a mud is finding good

builders. You will hear this from the admin of every MUD that has

ever been. In the past it has always been up to each individual MUD

to find and attempt to train their own builders. This works, but I

think the MUDding community can come up with something better. That

is why I created The Builder Academy.

TBA has been open to anyone interested in learning or teaching how

to build using Oasis OLC with dg scripts since 2000. TBA is now being

used to develop the tbaMUD codebase (formerly known as CircleMUD).

TBA has trained thousands of builders and has an extensive

tutorial and help file system. No pressure, no deadline, just come

learn, teach, or help develop tbaMUD. Give back to the community we

have all taken so much from. TBA is a MUDding resource. Please take

advantage of it so we can improve all of the MUDding community.

TBA is a low stress, no deadline, training environment. Where

anyone with motivation can work at their own pace to learn as much or

as little as they wish. Numerous people are available to answer

questions and give advice. 1000's of builders served and counting.

TBA can even be used by other MUDs as a builder's port. Just send

us your newbie builders. We will teach them and then you can have

them back with the zones they build.

We are always open to anyone willing to learn, teach, or help

develop tbaMUD.
