-1 LAG~
Twas dial-up, and the failing mudders did toil and struggle in the fray
All checksummed were the compressed files
And the man pages, outdate
Beware the Internet my son,
The noise that hangs, the lag that kills
Beware the Usenet news, and shun the frivolous mud with frills
So took his his mudding client in hand
Longtime the virtual foe he sought
So rested he by the T1s three and paused a while in swap
And as in disk-drive swap he stayed,
The Internet, with lags of fame
Came packetwise through the T1 line
And error-checked as it came
One two one two and through and through, the mudding client went kill -9
He left it dead and with it's core he went a tracing back
And hath thou slain the Internet?
Come to my arms my disk-based bot!
Oh lag-free day, callooh callay, he chortled in his joy
Twas dial-up, and the failing mudders did toil and struggle in the fray
All checksummed were the compressed files
And the man pages, outdate.

-1 ROM~
ROM started in early February 1993, using Merc 1.0 code. In July of 1993,
ROM II was started, eventually replacing the original ROM. ROM was up for
a little over a year, after which the code (version 2.3) was released,
and various other ROM muds were started, including Rivers of Mud under
a new management (Zump's ROM), at rom.org 9000.
Alander's current project is Athen, the sequel to the ROM code. It can
be found on Rehobaom's Legacy, at hypercube.org 9000.
The following people contributed to the ROM flavor of the merc base code:

Bug reports --
Thanks to Shad Muegge, Jerome Despret, Phoenix, Will Hongach,
Erwin S. Andreasen, Adam Debus and especially Gary Turkington
(author of the ROM FAQ) for help spotting bugs
ROM 2.4 was developed during my time with Moosehead mud, and the release
shares many of the features I wrote while I was there. Additional code
was written by Seth Scott (the new poofin/poofout), and many contributions
and ideas from the Merc list were used. Portions of Rusty's work on
Moosehead also remain.
The new features of 2.4 were largely produced in bull sessions with
Gabrielle Taylor and Brian Moore, without whom this release wouldn't
have happened. In particular, the new privacy code, furniture, and
wiznet are the results of Gabrielle's ideas.
Changes to the standard diku mob and object format, as well as the changes
to Merc 2.1 source code, were done by Alander over many a late night of
hair-pulling. Hope you enjoy it.
(my apologies if anyone was forgotten in this list)
Extensive mods have been done to this mud i now call it GHOST 3.00 beta 0

-1 IMMORTAL IMMORT GOD WIZARD WIZ~
'Immortal' (often, simply, 'immort') refers to players who have reached
the highest attainable levels in the game. Here, anyone of level 52
or higher is an 'immortal.' Immortals are capable of exceeding the
usual game rules, in more drastic and pervasive ways as levels increase;
examples range from teleportation and invisibility to mortal sight to
creation of objects, removal of a player's privileges (channels,
ability to move, or even ability to log in), and ability to promote
players to immortality.
Since immortals can wreak havoc with game balance, they are (ideally)
a carefully-chosen and policed group. An absolute rule of immortal
behavior is that no immortal can aid or assist any player without
explicit permission from the higher ranks; in other words, please
don't ask an immortal to help you kill a mob, gather EQ, etc, or
you'll likely be either politely or rudely refused, or referred to
this file.
The duties of immortals, and even the very reasons for their existence,
are topics of continual and heated debate in various MUD forums, and are
fraught with misconceptions, poor examples, and outrageous hypocrisies. :)

[Hit Return to continue]
~
102 JOBS~
This is a partial list of what a god of any given level should be doing. It is
not complete yet.
Angels:(102-104)
Angels and higher level gods may not assist mortals directly in any way.
An Angel's main job is to help with quests (via switch), or possibly run
small quest of their own -- but the rewards should be minimal.
Deities:(105-106)
Deities have two main roles: reimbursement and quest running. Be skeptical
on reimburses, don't just hand out every piece of gear. I suggest limiting
reimbursements to 10 items at a time, and make sure that you do not load things
at too high a level (new format items have hard-coded levels, so are not a
problem). vnum and stat are useful for this. You can draft Angels to help you
run a quest, and please note that quests should NOT have huge rewards -- the
main point should be to have fun. Deities have no business trying to enforce
rules -- the most you should do to a player is a NOCHANNEL or similar light
punishment.
Gods:(107-109)
Gods can run quests just like Deities, and it's nice to do reimbursements too.
However, the main role of a God is keeping the peace. Gods can enforce (but
not create rules), using the various NOTELL-class commands, as well as deny,
purge, freeze, and ban (but be careful with these commands!) Gods are expected
to help make the mud run more smoothly, power trips are strictly verbotten.
Not fufilling the roles of your office can result in demotion or deletion.
~
-1 PKILL PKILLING PKILLER 'PLAYER KILLING' PSTEAL PSTEALING 'PLAYER STEALING'~
Player killing and player stealing are allowed to all clan members
(including loners), provided the victim is is within 8 levels of the
character and is also in a clan. This will flag you as a "killer" or
"thief", allowing any character to attack, and also provoking action
from the city guard.
~
102 COMMANDMENTS LAWS 'GOD RULES' GODS~
.
**********************
** The Rules of ROM **
**********************
1) Do not kill mortals, do not kill mortals, do not kill mortals.
This includes transferring/summoning them to aggressive mobs.
2) Do not cheat for ANY mortal in ANY way, especially your own.
Unless of course you LIKE deletion. Yes this includes tanking,
healing/restoring, casting protection spells <armor, sanct>,
and softening up or altering mobs.
3) Do not transfer or summon mobs to mortals or mortals to mobs.
They have legs, if they want to kill a mob, they can easilly
go there themselves.
4) DO NOT kill the shopkeepers for any reason at ALL.
5) DO NOT use reboot. <--- Note, simple English.
6) Do not give out free equipment. You don't need to win brownie
points with the mortals. Quest are fine but handing out items
isn't.
7) A note on quests: Quests are a good thing, more or less, BUT
do not give out overly extravagant prizes. Exercise some
common sense here folks. Do not load items more than 4 levels
below their normal level (i.e. no level 5 ogre gauntlets).
8) Do not undermine the authority of a higher level god. If you
see that someone has been frozen or nochannelled do not restore
their priveleges. They are being punished for a reason.
9) Do not try to overrule each other.
10) Trusted mortals: Do not use your god powers to help your mortal
character. If you do, your trust will be taken away.

{Gdone without warning, notice, or even evidence of sanity. Walk softly,{x

{W* {RNO SWEARING {Gover open channels will be accepted!{x
~
0 SUICIDE DELETE~
Use the delete command to erase unwanted characters, so the name will be
available for use. This command must be typed twice to delete a character,
and you cannot be forced to delete. Typing delete with an argument will
return your character to 'safe' status if you change your mind after the
first delete.
~
0 HEALER~
The healer decided to grab a quick buck, and now charges for his heals. Some
services are still free to players of level 10 or below, however. To see
a full listing of the healer's services, type 'heal' at his residence. To
receive healing, bring plenty of money, and type 'heal <spell>'.
~
-1 GAIN~
The gain command is used to learn new skills, once the proper trainer has
been found. (Check New Thalos) The following options can be used with gain:
gain list: list all groups and skills that can be learned
gain points: lower your creation points by 1 (costs two sessions)
gain <name>: add a skill or skill group, at the listed cost
gain convert: turns 10 practices into one training session
Gain uses training sessions, not practices. (see 'help train')
Gained skills and groups do NOT increase your experience per level or total
number of creation points.
~
105 CLONE~
Syntax:
clone obj <object>
clone mob <mobile>
clone <name>
clone x*<object>
clone x*<mobile>
The clone command duplicates an object or mobile. The level of item or mobile
that may be cloned depends on your level. The target object or mob must be in
the same room as you, or in your posession. Strung and set information is
preserved by clone, as well as any spell effects and container contents or
mobile inventory, except for items which are too high for you to clone.
Strung extended descriptions on objects are not kept, however.
~
105 JAIL~
Syntax:
jail <name>
The jail command is used when a player has been overly disrespectful.
Use it with caution.
~
102 OMNI~
omni
original author: -Prism snazzy@ssnlink.net
improvements and colored by Taka.
- list in level order
- show mortal trust levels
The omni command is for immortals only. It is more detailed than the
mortal who command. Try it you will like it.
~
105 FREEVNUMS FVNUM FVNUMS VNUMS~
Syntax:
fvlist obj
- list all available object vnumbers in the area you are in!
fvlist mob
- list all available mobile vnumbers in the area you are in!
fvlist room
- list all available room vnumbers in the area you are in!
fvlist rooma
- list all available room vnumbers for all vnums mud wide!
when there is a free vnum gap of atleast 50.
~
0 SKILLS SPELLS~
The skills and spells commands are used to display your character's list
of available skills (or spells, as the case may be). They are listed in
order of level, with mana cost (for spells) or percentage (for skills)
listed where applicable.
~
0 OUTFIT~
The outfit command, usable by levels 5 and below, equips your character with
a new set of sub issue gear (banner, weapon, helmet, shield, and vest),
courtesy of the Mayor's warehouses. Only empty equipment slots are affected.
~
0 AUTO AUTODAMAGE AUTOLIST AUTOLOOT AUTOGOLD AUTOSAC AUTOEXIT AUTOASSIST
AUTOSPLIT AUTOALL AUTOCONSUME~
ROM uses varies automatic actions, to ease the boredom of always splitting
gold and sacrificing corpses. The commands are as follows:
autolist : list all automatic actions
autoloot : take all equipment from dead mobiles
autogold : take all gold from dead mobiles
autosac : sacrifice dead monsters (if autoloot is on, only empty corpes)
autoexit : display room exits upon entering a room
autosplit : split up spoils from combat among your group members
autoassit : makes you help group members in combat
autodamage : displays the amount of damage in numberic form to your screen
autoall : sets on all auto actions
autoconsume : allows undead to consume the fresh blood of corpses and gain
back lost life in the form of mana, hp, and movement poists
Typing a command sets the action , typing it again removes it.
~
-1 CLAN~
A Clan is a collection of players, united to follow and further
a common cause. Each clan has rules and regulations, to find out
more about clans and their 'beliefs' type "help <clan name>". Only
Clan members can kill or steal from other players. To join a Clan
you must be level 5 or above and level 25 or below. Speak to the
Clan Leader about joining. If you go Loner before level 25 you may
join a Clan later.
Joining a Clan is a dangerous step. Many adventurers live to
kill and torture others and chances are that your paths will cross.
Remember, attacking or killing fellow clan members *IS* illegal except to
mutiny your Clan leader.
Existing Clans may buy special rooms and mobiles by acquiring
diamonds as payment. To see room prices, type "help prices". New
Clans may be formed by petitioning the immortals. Please remember that
their word is final on all matters not covered by this help.
~
-1 PRICES PRICE~
New Clan Hall Rooms cost 50 diamonds.
Boosting the mana or healing gains for a room costs 250 diamonds.
Both in the same room costs double.
Making the Healer or Store prices lower costs 1,000 diamonds.
~
-1 COUNT~
The count command displays the number of people (that you can see) logged
into the mud. It also displays the highest number observed that day, if
it is higher.
~
-1 GATE~
The gate spell is a powerful transportation magic that opens up a portal
between your character and another person or creature somewhere else in the
world. This portal will transport you and any pet you might have, but not
other members of your group. Monsters recieve a save against gate, and
monster or players more than 3 levels higher than you can not be gated to at
all. God rooms, private rooms, and no recall rooms cannot be gated to, and
no recall rooms cannot be gated out of. Finally, any god or hero is also
immune to gate, as well as in player who has no summon set. Clan members
may not be gated to except by their fellow Clan members.
~
-1 AFFECTS AFFECT~
This command is used to show all the spells affecting your character. At
low levels, only the spell name will be displayed, at higher levels the
effects and duration of the spell will also be shown. Spell effects
are no longer shown on score (this can be changed by using 'show' command).
~
-1 COLORS COLOURS ANSI~
Syntax: colour or color Toggles colour mode on/off
You may also talk in colour. The format is like this:
Use the left-handed brace { to start, choose the letter of the color
you wish your message to be in, type your message, close with another
left-handed brace { followed immediately by an x
{{r {rdark red {{c {cdark cyan
{{R {Rbright red {{C {Cbright cyan
{{G {Gbright green {{y {ygold
{{D {Dgrey {{Y {Ybright yellow
{{b {bdark blue {{m {mdark magenta
{{B {Bbright blue {{M {Mbright magenta
{{W {Wbright white {{w {wmuted white
{{z Blink
clear(reset colour) e.g. brace { letter <message> closing brace {x
When using colour, it looks better if you finish the line with whatever
colour it would normally be in. A gossip is normally the colour magenta,
so: {mLope gossips '{Ghello, {Rworld{m'{g looks better than Lope gossips
'hello, world'
ColoUr is written by Lope (ant@solace.mh.se)
============================================================
~
-1 CRITICAL STRIKE CRITICALSTRIKE~
Critical strike is a skill, that when learned, will increase the fighter's
chance of delivering a death blow to the victim. This is a straight 2% chance
of killing the mob in one hit.
If the percent chance fails, critical strike will still increase the amount
of damage that is dealt from the attack.

Taka the wolf is our senior coder and does a lot
for The Ghost Dancer MUD Project. She is responsible
for all the code modifications that you currently
enjoy.
I Taka hand picked this team of people who I believe
are the best in the MUD business. each one is incredible
and each one has his or her own specialties. We at Ghost
are lucky to have them!
Thankyou to my fellow team and thankyou to our players.
I am proud to say the Ghost MUD code now powers 3 muds
and we are growing everyday.

-1 PYROX~
Pyrox is a fountain of ideas and has helped to bring many changes to this mud
that benefit you and everyone else who will ever play a GHOST based mud.
His ideas have been as simple as showing the name of the area in the where
command to as complex as a fully new backstab system. Both are implemented
here in GHOST. A full list of his ideas could never do him justice but beware
you will see his name in many places throughout this help text.

-1 AZASH~
Azash is another friend i am lucky to have such a skilled bug finder on the
team. He also comes up with practical and usful ideas many of which are
implemented here now. His council has been a god send at times and he is
talented enough to dabble in all aspects of muds. His assistance with our
new array based flags is what gives GHOST its unlimited expansion.

-1 VINCENT~
What can i say I love this guy. He is dedicated, fair and full of good
oppinions. I seek his council often for practical fair ways to implement
the plethora of ideas presented to me by this team. Vincent is also one
of the most talented writters i have had the pleasure of reading. His work
can be found throughout all of GHOST.

-1 CORMAC~
Cormac is the head builder and a busy man here. His input is everywhere
you look. He often gives me peeptalks and keeps me going and maybe the
very backbone that holds this team together.

-1 TEAM~
This team is fiercely loyal and very dedicated. They have been my shining
light and often are the reason I even work on the project at all. Each one
of them is special to me. It brings me the greatest pleasure to work with
such talented people as these. I look forward to a long and pleasant
development process, one in which I am constantly challenged and just when
I think it is hopeless, one of this team is always there to point to a path
I had some how overlooked before.
Thank you each and every one of you for your hard word and dedication as
well as your loyalty and (at times) brutal but fair honesty.

-1 ROXIE~
What can i say. Roxie is at times a bit discombobulated and often deep in
thought. She has a keen mind and a sharp wit. She also has an artistic side
that can be seen within GHOST. She is always pleasent and always up for
good conversation. She often makes me laugh and always makes me smile.

-1 KIRA~
Kira is the newest member of the GHOST team. She is out to prove herself and
look out world I think she will be great!
