Now, I've run into a few more camps of coders and understand why some would guard their code with their lives, coders who sign on a mud to steal/snarf what others have written (and of course not give credit where credit was due) and even worse, people who go and supply a site for a coder and then, after a week, the account disappears as does the code. That's probably why there aren't many muds where IMPs from other muds go and hangout and swap ideas. I know of two. One lost his site. The other one recently got code-theft. Perhaps when I get my site up and running, I'll put a coder's corner where people can do their idea swapping. Until then, we can dream... -- Billy H.
