The main pages says "The game is not running" at the bottom.
Yes.  Crash.

Just out of curiosity, how does one tell if a crash was a direct result of something one did?

You, the player, cannot, unless you end up crashing it more than once using the same command.

The staff, however, can. In the MUD code, there is a folder called LOGS. In this folder, the information on each crash is stored. The staff simply reads the file and fixs the problem mentioned within if possible. If a coder of caliber is not available, the command may be commented out for a time, until said coder can look at it and diagnose it. In other cases, when there are no staff online who are competent with coding in any way, the game will simply be shut down, until a coder can come look at the problem.

Disclaimer: Most of this is my opinion, and my experience from both playing Armegeddon and running my own MUD. Staff input is, as always, appreciated.

If you did crash the MUD, you may notice that NPCs start attacking you more often and you lose all of your karma.  Wait, I wasn't supposed to say that...!

I'm just kidding.  There are ways to track what crashed the MUD, and unless you repeatedly continue to exploit the error that does this, you will not be told or punished.

I don't know what I expected "charge me" to do, honestly.
