Due to the rampant issues with griefing and players being huge fucksticks in general, we have been forced to come up with new ways to keep HellMOO playable for everyone. To this end, starting today you will be able to opt out of PvP combat. Just type "@prefs pvp is 0" to activate it

LOL

Ok, yeah, they've gone mad. Game is dead, etc.


I think it is more appropriate to say they've gone carebear/mainstream because hellmoo has always been mad

That was the April Fool's joke that they already changed back.

I'd like to remind everyone that half of the time I don't even know what I'm talking about. The other half of the time I only sort of know what I'm talking about.

Yeah the PvP thing was an april fools joke combined with the Pwipe.

This is...just bad.

EDITED FOR GREAT JUSTICE:
According to the IRC, Hell is under new management and will be back up in a few weeks.

The sad thing here being that Hellmoo with optional instead of universal PvP is a game I really want to play.

Someone managed to get their hands on the server code for HellMOO and stuck it up on MegaUpload, so I'm assuming they'll be a copy or two floating around before long.

EDIT:
Or maybe not? Someone claims to have a copy compiled and running anyway.

This is the best week in the history of HellMOO

Also Mada/Kharn is taking over with some of the other admins, they are on IRC.

If they do start it up again, we should make a Bay12 corp. :P

Wow, the admins actually got tired of the griefing? If they do the optional pvp bit then I might be tempted to go back on occationally, if only to mess around.

So if I'm understanding this right, there is a chance good ol' Hellmoo classic will be coming back?

I think it's pretty much guaranteed to come back in a week or so, sans idiotic changes. It's being handed off to a new admin.

(Also, apparently only the engine of the MOO has been leaked, not the game itself)

The DB was supposedly leaked but was quickly pulled.

It apparently contained much admin drama
