I'm the owner and lead programmer of AvP: The MUD, which has been running over 8 years now. I was only recently turned on to this site, and decided to share it with everyone on AvP: The MUD. I am not one to self promote, but since the original poster didnt really explain and you would like more info, I figure this is a good time to explain more.
AvP: The MUD is a text based multiplayer roleplaying game. MUDs - Multi User Dungeon/Dimension - were the only option to online multipalyer RPGs before the graphical games like EverQuest and Ultima Online and the like came about. They're still popular enough these days, since almost all of them are free to play.
The concept is pretty straight forward - everything is text. You move by typing directions (north, east, south, west, up, down). You see room descriptions and what is inside then when you enter a room. You can pick up and use objects and equipment, and fight NPCs (mobiles, or "mobs"), and other players. The game is all about race wars, and is open PvP (5 hour protection for new characters). We do not require roleplaying in-character, but you are welcome to do so.
Here is an example of the room that Marine home base.

The USCMC Tactics and Defenses
Planetary relief maps and troop deployment displays help the intelligence
branch of the USCMC's anti-xenomorph campaign determine the next logical step
to halt alien proliferation in the universe. Incoming logistic read-outs
sputter violently from printers as the constant influx of information is
examined, analyzed and used to revise current or upcoming missions to ensure
their highest success probability. All pertinent areas of the base can be
accessed from the war room.
Medlab located to the NORTH
Armory/Weapons located to the EAST
Science Bay, Fields (newbie mobs) to the SOUTH
Exit and dropships located WEST
Automated transports located DOWN
Mailman/Terminal located UP
[ Exits: N E S W U D ]
The USCMC tactical display is here, outputting information.
A synthetic regeneration and maintainence pod. (humming)
A large sign is here, explaining how to submit a Staff Application. <Look Staff> (glowin)
Cap'n Crunch Fuma is standing here.
Sergeant Major Nohbdy [AFK] is standing here.
Sergeant Mark Dresco is here, helping new recruits.

MUDs are for chicks that don't have money or a cool boyfriend to buy them a decent enough video card for an MMORPG. _________________ Thank you for flying Church of England. Cake or Death?
