Same here! I remember making my own port of DikuMUD because I wanted to start my own community but quickly learned how daunting the writing workload is and I sadly never finished my beginning city but it felt magical to have a friend from AlterAeon join me and enter this world I had built. It was all so accessible if you could just put in the time to world build.
