Question. Where would this guild be held? On your mud? Or are you
considering something like InterMUD? Lets just say there's only one other
MUD besides mine that I spend time on and I don't like having many zMUD
windows open. I tend to agree with Alex, it sounds somewhat haughty in its
elitism.

Gotta love the warm welcoming attitude. Keep it up and I can guarantee the
only people you're going to get are knee-jerk idiots like you're sounding
like, and Im hoping my assessment of you is incorrect.

Netscape? Remember he said he uses Pine. Most programs format it via line
wrapping but that doesnt solve the underlying problem; I'd suggest Eudora
Light/Pro. (Light available from http://www.ici.net/softwaresites.html and
then your platform) It formats it when you read it and when it sends it as
well.
