1  NannyMUD / Suggestions / Re: Nanny web page on: July 16, 2011, 07:27:00 AM
It's a tough subject, a good webpage could help, the current one looks like the whole thing's been abandoned.
If I would know how to, and would have the opportunity I'd also update the design (It is very 90s now. It's ok to not use any modern CMS and keep it all static, but colours, menu items, buttons are probably not forbidden.) and would take a good look on what useful or interesting content can be added (with the least work possible - involve players or use info already existing in the mud).
But then, a site requires constant maintenance as well, the lack of it leads to where we are now. An admin that likes tinkering with web sites would be cool Smile

Maybe something like this could work:
- collect ideas for features, layout, content (you admins, then maybe players, although it's tough to say how many will take the time to look at the current page and think about what would be nice)
- make a final list of what's feasible
- maybe prioritize it
- find people to do it.. if it's something that doesn't require admin maybe other wizards/mortals can do it as well. We're just as responsible of this mud as you guys. I'm thinking of the man page xml conversion project for example, that worked. Smile
- bug people to finish their work, collect it, correct it, implement it Smile

If my post is useless it's ok, I didn't add any less than you two did so far. Smile Just saying, as with everything, it will be only done if someone starts doing it, and for minimizing the work 10-20 minutes of planning it wouldn't hurt.

Technology depends on features wanted, about the security concerns, having the server in the right network segment (which is surely already done), maybe chrooting the web server (I also assume this is already done with the mud), and having daily remote backups with perhaps remote syslog would go a long way in minimizing Lysator's risks... if any of this causes a resource problem I'm sure that can be handled as well.

Oh, I'll check for that plaque.
And I don't know about Danny's hydra, that's an interesting thing to explore. Smile
(i'll probably die again but that's ok, getting used to it these days)

What other "bloody signs" are there in nanny (immortality on some sign killing big monsters)? Or stuff like Hans' t-shirt for beast of nurgle - so prestige kills with some kind of permanent reward?
I know there was a Kerish pet's plaque, where that is? Didn't find it recently.

Something like ... more or less ... Smile

Anyone can give me some URLs for something like that? Googled some but trick is I need something for short term (1 month, most probably), and companies ask for 12 usually, lowest I saw was 3 months.

Pls share if any ideas. Thx.

errrm was afk some. Sent a mail anyway and I'll just hang around. Smile
10  NannyMUD / Daily Rant / grrr - addhost on: November 26, 2004, 03:09:53 PM
Any way to remove addhost from all my chars? I have moved and have another provider now (anyway did not log in in the last 3 months). Obviously I cannot log onto Nanny. I have 1 char that can log on (of course highwizs are idle). Should I just wait patiently (days, weeks, months?) for an admin to wake up?

You are in the local village church.
There is a huge pit in the centre and a door in the west wall. There is also a
clock on the wall. This church provides the service of reviving ghosts. Dead
people come to the church and pray. This is a holy place and you feel safe
here. There is an exit south and a back door leads north.
  There are four obvious exits: east, west, north and south.
Amalie the frightened one (nasty).
Art the Master Worshipper of Cthulhu (evil).
A small note marked 'About NannyMUD'.
A dusty statue of Dunstan.
Koynoy the healthy (I'll be back!).
> You stop concentrating on your disease.
[Party] Tandgrisner got no xp (Not present).
[Party] Experience points divided.
[PK Information] Haarfager just killed Maniac.
You are victorious!!!
[PK Information] From somewhere deep inside the temple you hear a voice saying:
                             Hail Haarfager!!!


(Yes, I like to keep it close  Twisted Evil)


Heh, they weren't even both hitting you.

No, we just don't keep so many logs. Some of us just won't waste the time on that, perhaps. Past doesn't matter that much...
Ah, it would be wonderful to be able to think that all the years that I have lived just doesn't matter, just forget it, go on, live in the NOW, don't waste time on memories... It would be great... Sadly, I can't, a feel I have to remember what have happened, to me, and to others, perhaps it's an age thingy, you kids just don't give a damn about the past. How refreshing!


You old people whine too much over it. You should be thinking at your death, it must be close as you're so old.

I think that support spells like healing and wards in a party should reward xp, it's easy enough to code, if more than me voice that idea it might happen something on that front.


Doesn't healing give xp? I knew it did.

15  NannyMUD / Question of the Week / Kid names on: August 13, 2004, 01:55:35 PM
In my home country I've heard gipsy names like Zorro, Rambo, Winettoo or however is spelled. That's lame.
I have no idea what name would I chose, will think about that when it comes to that.
