Welcome to the Barren Realms MUD Newsletter:

Visit us at telnet://barren.coredcs.com:8000/
or our web site at http://www.barrenrealmsmud.com/

----------------------------------------------------
IDEAS:

Everybody: can we get additional syntax for the wear command to allow for
"wear all.<keyword>" to work? presuming it won't replace existing (as the wear all
command)

Loupgarou: a "deposit all" and a "withdraw all" command would be very nice

Delariand: How about giving heroes the identify spell along with locate object at level 53?

Disaster: all the maps aod sells should be reset to load at level 1 to A) encourage
exploring and B) encourage people to try to find their own corpses (instead of asking how
to get to areas they can't buy maps to)

Kitsune: DonLuigi mob in Calathar that lends you cash for a death defeater / etc.
If you don't pay him back 10x in 24 hours, the "guards" in cities will attack you on
sight.

Disaster: antisocial and nosummon should be set as toggles like autoloot, so we could
type just "antisocial" instead of having ot type "config +antisocial"

AMystery: it would seem nice if the academy arena actually linked back to the passage
with the master, so that the first area newbies see makes a bit more logical sense

Disaster: the telpathy spell should be coloured according to the color set for the tell
channel

Nire: if an area is no magic in or out you should be able to teleport/astral from one
part of the area to another

Disaster: 3 new versions of the look command, lookworn, lookinv, and lookroom, which
only look in the appropriate places and can be used to look at 2.item and 3.ED etc.
properly, since look doesn't work right for that

Answer #1

A flight attendant was stationed at the departure gate to check tickets. As a man
approached, she extended her hand for the ticket, and he opened his trench coat and
flashed her. Without missing a beat she said, "Sir, I need to see your ticket, not your
stub."

Answer #2

A lady was picking through the frozen turkeys at the grocery store, but couldn't find one
big enough for her family. She asked a stock boy, "Do these turkeys get any bigger?" The
stock boy replied, "No ma'am, they're dead."

Answer #3

The cop got out of his car and the kid who was stopped for speeding rolled down his
window. "I've been waiting for you all day," the cop said. The kid replied, "Yeah, well
I got here as fast as I could."

Answer #4

A truck driver was driving along on the freeway. A sign comes up that reads "low bridge
ahead." But before he knows it the bridge is right ahead of him and he gets stuck under
the bridge. Cars are backed up for miles. Finally, a police car comes up. The cop gets out
of his car and walks around to the truck driver, puts his hands on his hips and says, "Got
stuck, huh?" The truck driver says, "No, I was delivering this bridge and ran out of gas."

Answer #5

Upon getting into an elevator a passenger asked, "Is this lift going up?" "No, replied
someone at the back, "We're going to fool everyone this time and go sideways."

Answer #6

A college teacher reminds her class of tomorrow's final exam. "Now class, I won't tolerate
any excuses for you not being here tomorrow. I might consider a nuclear attack or a serious
personal injury or illness, or a death in your immediate family but that's it, no other
excuses whatsoever!" The smart-ass at the back quickly raised his hand and asked, "What
would you say if tomorrow I said I was suffering from complete and utter sexual
exhaustion?" The entire class does its best to stifle their laughter and snickering. When
silence is restored, the teacher smiles sympathetically at the student, shakes her head,
and sweetly says, "Well, I guess you'd have to write the exam with your other hand."
