    I'm actually making one, but not for you. It's been a work in progress forever. (Meaning, whenever I get around to it, I do something on it. Then I start all over again a while later.) You should probably go check out The Mud Connector. Be sure not to post in the wrong forum, because there, like here, it ........es people off. In otherwords, don't post it in the Coder's Forum, or the Design forum.

    Rewardless programming endeavour moved to the recruitment board.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Gee thanks Salem. You shoulda moved it into the recycle bin and emptied it.

    If you can't program how are you going to make anything?? Nevermind. My post will prob get deleted but seriously.....this is getting ridiculous.

    You've obviously never played a MUD, or at least administrated, or been part of the "staff" of a MUD. Numerous MUDs now days have OLC (online creation) systems. Basicly, you can create objects, creatures, rooms, etc, without knowing anything about programming.

    Furthermore, tons of MUDs have scripting languages in them, or even simple scripting and/or mobprogs. Additionally, there are M*s that basicly you can, from within the M* "program" the entire game. (LP Muds, etc) This includes creating basicly *anything* from within the mud itself. (With LPs though, it is in fact just like programming in a pseudo-C variant (LPC), and you'd be hard pressed to do anything in an LP without knowing how to program.)

    im thinking he was asking to find some people interested
    i dont remember him saying, hey lets flame me a whole
    bunch cause i would like some people to help me who
    are "INTERESTED". if your not interested dont be
    some people, not many, but some people like to help
    others for nothing more then a thank you. the
    guy didnt specify if there would be anything in it
    down the line other then his greatfulness so you
    never know there could be. BUT, if i knew enough
    i would get involved just to do it. everyone around
    here can be so nice, but everyone also flames for no
    valid reason, im thinking, vacation, all of you need one
    your to stressed. i understand he posted in the wrong
    board on the post, common mistake some people don't
    pay attention for crap, ive bene known to do that sometimes
    :/. and he could possible deserve flaming for that, but not
    just because he wants some people who are interested
    in doing it. usually id be sorry for wasting oyur time with
    such a long useless post, but most of you deserve to hear
    this, and i hope it does you some good. also, just to see
    if you learned anything from this, i will stay tuned for
    jarjar flames.

    PS, this isnt just for this post, it goes to all these post
    that "you", whoever you may be, decides to post in
    a thread where your reply wasnt really needed or wanted.
    Speaking of that, this post is prolly not anything near
    what you wanted, but anyone who's ever been flamed
    by someone who jumped in where they really weren't
    welcome, should apprieciate this post, and see what it
    is for, and that its not ment to flame those who flame
    but maybe to make you think before you jump into a
    conversation where you really have nothing to add to it.

    Thank you to all of you that spared some time to read this.

    You don't know what you want, you don't know how to program, and I'm willing to bet you won't be paying anyone.

    I think you're going to get what you give us on this one.

    Now that this thread is mired in a different kind of mud, time to call it.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
