Telnet and the Glorious ZenMoo

The Words of the Sacred ZenMoo (back then, when the internet was a holy thing)

Hello, and peace. The internet is a holy thing, it is a sacred thing, and it is an internet thing. Those who are less enlightened do not understand this. Any intrepid internet citizen knows of the mystical nature of the internet. However, there has been a lack of real spirituality on the internet. There's Gopher (which is not very spiritual), Archie (a brutal, Diety-less barbarian), MUDs, MUCKs, MUSHes, and on and on. Where is one to find mental tranquility and spiritual rest and relaxation? You have found it, if you have found ZenMOO. ZenMOO is dedicated to meditation for the weary internet wanderer. Here is how to use ZenMOO: When you first connect (however you do so), you will need to create a meditation name. Think of a good name, and a good password to go with it. Store both of these in a file for safe keeping. You can use your meditation name and password whenever you feel weary and faint. Enter the following, substituting the name and password you have chosen. create <name> <password> You might want to make sure the name is capitalized properly. Press return (as always). You are now connected. It will tell you so. Your first reaction will be to look around, or see who is connected. Do not do this. Do not type anything. Simply take a deep breath, crack your knuckles (if you have any), and wait. In a few seconds, your breathing will become regular, and you will feel very relaxed. Perhaps a wise saying will appear for you to read and meditate upon. (By the way, the next time you connect to the ZenMOO, type the following to use your meditation name: connect <name> <password> You do not need to create a new name every time you connect.) Continue to meditate. When you are more relaxed, and able to move slowly and deliberately, you have several commands at your finger tips. Be very careful not to type too much, however! I would suggest typing only once a minute. You must be very still, and very peaceful, or you will disturb the other meditators. If you are disruptive, you will be kicked off! Here are your commands: who (or @who) inventory (or simply "i") look (or simply "l") go north (or simply "north", or even more simply, "n") go south go east go west go up Now, to make sure that you are really meditating, and not just in another shell, you will be asked a question or riddle from time to time. You will want to answer as quickly as possible, in order to keep from appearing asleep. Students have dozed off during meditation and been booted, loosing their vital idle statistics, and living in shame. Let me explain the output from the "who" command. The first column is the meditator's name. The second column will tell you how long they have been meditating, that is, how long they have been idle. Long periods of idle time are very esteemed, and difficult to get. The third column tells you how much total idle time a meditator has accrued, over the course of many sessions. The fourth column tells you roughly how long the meditator has been using the ZenMOO facilities, across sessions. The last column is very important. It tells you the ratio of total idle time to total usage time. High percentages mean a very restful, yet alert meditator. Low percentages reflect poorly on a fidgety meditator. From time to time, to facilitate the meditation, wise sayings will be printed for your reading, meditating pleasure. Some sayings will be wise statements, but others will be mantras, computationally formed to maximize the meditation relaxation and spiritual healing. To get the full use of the mantras, try reading them as a chant, concentrating on the breathing and tempo to synch your spiritual energies. Enjoy the ZenMOO. Meditate well, and receive your favorite Deity's blessing. Thank you.
