@starlightbolt Anything you've heard of or want to know about MU*? Feel free to ask me. :3 In a nutshell, MU*s are kinda like World of Warcract (MUDs) or Second Life (MUSHs) but with words instead of 3D graphics. For example, !EquestrianDawn is a MUSH, and there's not many combat mechanics or player-character stats, but it has systems facilitating roleplay, and it's pretty easy for anypony to have whatever kind of character they'd like. And if they get tired of something about their, it's always easy to change.

@retl I've never played WoW or Second Life XD

@starlightbolt Well, then, a MUSH is kinda like a chat room, but every person logged in has a character. You can look at the character to see what they look like, talk to characters, and perform actions as that character. And in the case that something IRL is relevant or if you just want to chat about stuff unrelated to the RP, there are OOC commands for the players to talk as players. Also, rather than being one "chatroom", it's more like there are a bunch of rooms together on a gridded map with descriptions of what's in the room and what it's like to be there. One can go from room to room exploring and find new things, and sometimes meet new players while looking around. For example, a pony starting in the Ponyville Square could go north to the marketplace where AJ tends to bring an apple cart, and from there East to Sugarcube Corner. (Stop me and ask questions if I'm getting way too confusing again. XD )

@retl Hmmm I think I understand the concept. What do characters RP as, like what do you all do?
-
@starlightbolt Well, in Equestrian Dawn, I have three different characters. I have a hyperactive Retl-pony unicorn who tacklehugs almost everything he sees and talks a lot. I have Lady Splody, who's my best guess at an adolescent dragoness that can't breath fire. And another character that's not important. But in general, interactions between say Retl and Princess Luna are like HIYA WATCHA DOING oh magic And then get really distracted by everything ever as Luna thinks up really smart things.

@starlightbolt But there's other characters, like Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash that show up from time to time. But usually I spend more time playing with other people's characters, like there's a Honey Habanero who helps run a shop, so I tend to go there to RP meal-getting scernarios. (Even though it's right across from Sugarcube Corner, but there's not really too much character in there often unless somepony were invited, so I haven't been going there lately.) It's just a lot of scenario stuff, and some ongoing-stuff and lots and lots of stuff.

@retl any main storyline?
-
@starlightbolt If you mean some kind of story that's system wide that everyone is expected to follow? Nope. That'd make it near impossible for new players to get in and be whatever it is they want to be.

@retl Also on a side note I am also new to chat Role Playing. My only experiance with chat RPing is trolling XD
-
@starlightbolt I've never really done chat-RPing unless you count IM messages or RDN. :B Though I've hung out on IRC to just talk, so if that counts...?

@retl perhaps I need to try it before I can understand it any further :\
-
@starlightbolt Alrighty, cool. x3 Always nice to see new people on and how they react. But yeah, no rush. Planning to do a move from here to a new house too, soon.
