=09wizards out there=2E What intimidates you most about trying to learn=20=

=09softcode or start  a MUX=3F What do you think could be done to improve=20=

=09these things=3F I'm more interested in particular aspects or areas of=20=

=09BTMux, not the "I don"t have enough time" type stuff :)


First off I am a long time lurker on BT mailing lists and but really know
about 2% or less I think=3F=3F  So please this is only my opinion=2E
I figured instead of lurking I should put something forward=2E  Thanks Way=
ne
Scott for giving me a kick=2E

=09"My" biggest issue has been a fear of being a burden on the current MUX=

staff=2E Then finding a stable environment where you can learn and have
access to the REAL Wizards that pertains to BT MUX=2E  I worked on a MUSH
building streets, buildings interiors etc=2E  But there was never a real
group effort, no weekly meetings to discuss what we had learned, what we
found hard to learn=2E  It has always been too casual for me to learn=2E S=
o I
just drifted away, and there was never any contact=2E I worked on that mus=
h
for a month and only had contact with one person=2E =20

=09I am willing to dedicate time to learning how to do it=2E  Crap=2E For =
years
now all I have ever done is read as many manuals, faqs and white papers I
could find on MUX, MUSH Linux etc=2E  I read all the help text in every
source code I could find=2E  =20

=09I love BT MUXing=2E  I played the real board game for years and a MUX
environment is by far the closest to the real feel=2E  I am pleasantly
surprised at the work that is being put into this project and would like t=
o
be apart of it but I fear I have nothing to offer at this point with my
currently level of knowledge except maybe typing and proofing and leeching=
=2E
I am more then willing to do documentation if that is what I am most
capable of at the moment=2E

So consider this a Can I help you out Greg=3F
