I've mudded at Blackmud for twelve years, so it's been around awhile. It is both a challenging mud, and a fun mud to play. It has a good range of classes, skills, spells- probably one of the most playable muds there is. It is very stable, the coding staff is thorough, and always working on changes. We have an outstanding web page, our own forums, an account system for managing your characters, and offer support for organizations and clans. Come by and check us out!

BlackMUD is an exiting mud where the immortals are always trying to improve gameplay. The players are nice and always willing to help a new player out. The immortals are all great guys and gals that truly care about the mud and the people who play it. The immortal staff is always coming out with changes and new aspects for the mud. I have played this mud for 6-7 years and have always loved to loggon and roleplay with my friends. i have played a few other muds and have even been an immortal on another one and nothing is more enjoyable then playing this mud as a mortal.

I've been playing BlackMUD for ages and since I've just come back from the con I really felt that I should give my review of the MUD. BlackMUD or BM has been the best MUD I've experienced. The staff has been moving it in a direction of more Roleplay, while at the same time leaving a level of hack n' slash that is acceptable to that sort of player. The world itself is extremely large and original and is growing all the time. For the most part the playerbase are very helpful people, I know that I(Phyron) for one would have no problem giving a hand to any new player if they let me know they are in need. I don't want to make this much longer, but I believe if you are looking for a top notch mud, then BlackMUD is DEFINITELY the place you want to look.

BlackMUD has been around since the beginning of almost any mud, and to this date has an average on peak times of at least 15-20 people. Immortals are always active, quests happen often and there is an option feature to keep you out of player-killing, or get you into it. Great gear, a roleplaying environment and 50 levels, plus remortal classes . I could go on but you'd probably get a better view for yourself if you would try it out. It's well worth it as I've been a dedicated player for 6 years.

Certainly one of the best muds I have found out there. With an evergrowing world, strong codebase that is worked on with casual updates to imrpove gameplay as well as roleplay. Definantly a place for those who like to take out some beasts with some friends, and have a good ol session roleplaying. Two thumbs up without question.

Blackmud is a small but closeknit and highly interactive mud. Many of the players have been playing for many a year, and still remain loyal to it despite their busy schedules. Original areas, NPCs and characters as well as fun-filled quest creates a wonderful experience.
