[edit] Links

There seems to be a creeping pattern of people leaving pointers to their MUD websites on this page. Since Wikipedia's not a link farm, I've removed them and left the link to the main page - which is all this article needs.

The appropriate place for links to mud sites is the player links page. Vashti 16:18, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

Good call. Rehevkor 22:14, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

Seeing as it is the players that make the community, don’t you think it would be practical to have their links shown beneath the MUD pointer? --Mr Woodpigeon 20:41, 30 December 2006 (UTC) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by MrWoodpigeon (talk • contribs).

The quick answer to that is that Wikipedia is not part of the MUD community, and including player links breaks Wiki policy. As stated above, put your link at the player links page and people will see it there (probably many more than are likely to see it here). Vashti 22:16, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
