[MUD-Dev2] Bad Terminology: MMO, MMORPG vs. MUD

[Vincent Archer]

According to Michael Chui:

The problem of Persistent State World is that there are really few games
where the world has a persistent state. In fact, for most of the worlds,
the state self-restores to its original state rather quickly ("respawn").

Its on-line presence, however, is persistent - except during maintenance.
