MUDs MUDs MUDs, Multiple User Dimension, are computer programs a user can log into and explore. MUDs create an imaginary world within the computer where several users can meet to mingle, gossip, tell jokes or play games.
Tiny MUDs create an environment where people come to gather, meet friends, and socialize.
