Good ol' X-men.
Let me know when this place opens, I'd be interested in perhaps creating an OC to join in on the fun.

I know my PennMUSH is on dune.net's servers. They are fairly cheap, like 6/month for the basic package which is really all you need. The guy is also willing to work with you and change up package stuff, so like-- if you don't need all the space, but like to have a solid domain name... Things like that.

I know that this location would be one place to advertise and I know sharing ads between MU*s is another one, but is there any advice anyone could give? Other locations that could be used? I would love some suggestions and I am even sure that there are probably some new folks out there that could be wondering as well.

My advice is this: Advertise when you are ready and know what you're going to offer, and when you're going to offer it, but not before.

Most projects fall apart well before they come out of the "hey, I got this idea..." stage. And we, fickle lot that we are to begin with, have seen way too many projects disappear well before fruition.

So find the people who'll help you staff it, make sure you got the technical infrastructure taken care of (i.e. you got a host, someone to code, if you got a wiki someone to set it up, etc) then when it looks like you're actually going to open in a matter of weeks tell us why we should want it to open even sooner.

But yeah, if you want to advertise this forum is as good as any. Good luck!

I want to say thanks to all the replies on this. The advice there is a really nice one to have. I'll keep everything said here in mind and thanks again!

Hello all!
My own MUSH will not be ready till sometime in the mid-late 2017 (hopefully), but I am someone who likes to plan ahead; Way ahead. I did some searching in this topic, or at least tried to, but didn't find any facts or helpful tips on how one should go about advertising their MU*.

I know that this location would be one place to advertise and I know sharing ads between MU*s is another one, but is there any advice anyone could give? Other locations that could be used? I would love some suggestions and I am even sure that there are probably some new folks out there that could be wondering as well.

Any information given would be very appreciative and any advice for someone who is fairly new at this sort of thing.

Thank you!!
