Hi,
As another note, I do not believe MUD's have a specific goal or an ending.
Best Regards,
Hayden

Rpg stands for role playing game, and can refer generallly to any game (on 
computer or off it), in which you play a role in an interactive story or 
experience with use of statistics.

Rpgs have quite some history, but generally they started becoming popular in

the 1970's, --- though those were tabletop games like dungeons and dragons, 
rather than played on a computer.

Mud, on the other hand stands for multiple user dungeon (or dimention 
depending upon whome you ask), and refers to text adventure games played 
specifically on a computer in which several users in put commands and 
control characters on a sentralized server, rather than one player running 
through a text adventure program on a computer.

it thus has a far narrower meaning than rpg, ---- indeed there are far more 
rpgs than muds.

Beware the gRue!

Dark.
