Imagine you, wanting to play a slave.

;D

Shut it.

It wasn't that kind :P
You know you've raised a nerd when your five year old answers the question "Do you know what gymnastics are?" with "Dungeons and Dragons?"

It's never too late to live happily ever after.

I begun when I was 15. 16 now, and I'm hoping I get to play Armageddon (or Arm.2) for a long time to come.
LOL WAT?

1997 - I was 17.

Dropped it for a goodly ten years (with a brief two month resurgence in 2004).

My partner is so excited.

I discovered MUDs (Dragonrealms, God help me!) when I went to work for AOL right after they went unlimited. That was 12 years ago so I was 28, I think. (I got to play DR for free! Woo!) For some bizarre reason I continued to play even after I had to pay for it... I had no idea there were free ones out there! Then a friend of mine turned me onto another free MUD and from there (due to the constant admonition to VOTE!) I found the topmudsites... and decided to try Arm. At the age of 37 or 38, because now I'm 41 and without being able to go back and check for sure I think I've been playing about 3 and a half years.

I started MUDding about 12 years back on AOL also.  First DR then Terris and yes I paid for Terris went AOL started to charge as well.

I was 12, actually - 18 now.

-18?

How did you manage that?

Er, losing a LOT of characters to rash things and losing a lot of social life.

I started Arm when I was about 16-17 (22 now). But I discovered MUDS and the wonderful world of RP when I was 10-11ish. Not sure how I coped without Arm, I spent about 5 years trying inject RP into hack&slash play.

Hey!  Thanks for making me feel young again.  38 when I started.  1 year in.

I started playing in '01, but I forget my age at the time. Or my age now, for that matter.

Must be the alzheimer's setting in.  ;D

I was 36 at the time...I think.

Armageddon is best when it's actually harsh and brutal, not when we're only pretending that it is.

I was 15 and Arm was my first MUD.  I am now 24 and Arm is still the first MUD I've (seriously) played.
April 28, 2009, 07:13:23 PM #69
I was 16 when I first played Arm. 20 now.

I was 22 when I started playing Arm, but my first MUD, EmeraldMUD, I remember playing as early as 7th grade.

I was 13 when I played my first mud, which was Altered Reality (ar.static.net, god help it).  I played around on that intermittently until I was about 16.  At 16, I had a very brief stint on Dragonrealms.  Followed by a long hiatus from MMORPGs in general.  A matter of weeks ago, I decided to start playing a mud again.  I turn 21 in a week.

And so far I'm quite pleased!

I was 15 when I first heard of Armageddon, but got bored of description writing. 5 lines of description?! 22 when I finally submitted that desc :P

Got introduced to the game and muds in general by my roommate  in 2000 when I was 14 or 15 , and have worn out many a keyboards since that day.
A staff member sends you:
"Normally we don't see a <redacted> walk into a room full of <redacted> and start indiscriminately killing."

You send to staff:
"Welcome to Armageddon."
