Remember, AC, the Danes were the ones who SAVED their Jewish population. Everyone, from King Christian(?) on down, wore the star because they were not just Jews, they were Danes.

I read through some of the answer and saw, that many of them pointed to different muds and web-based BBS games.

I've been playing Utopia for more than a year now, and I have at least 200 utopia people on my ICQ contact list, 30 bookmarks with pages about utopia and an okay reputation. The game itself is similar to Earth, and remember playing something like that back in the later 80 on a BBS.

The online game can be found here, and has more than 40K players at the moment. We have an official forum (plus 10 non-official with many posts every day), we have Active ICQ lists with hundreds of members (doesn't work with licq I'm afraid), we have quite a few big alliances (complete with ministers and leaders).

In other words, we have an community. Many things seems strange for outsiders. Ever heard of an landgrab for example? I meet new people every through this game, and our common interest for this game makes it easy to find something to talk about - a bit too easy perhaps.

That said, there are periods where I have to stay away a bit from this game... It's time consuming if you're into many alliances and such. But overall, I think it's great.

Did I mention that the author (Mehul Patel) made the first BBS game where many BBSs was linked into one game? He tells a bit about in in this Interview.

I'm sure you still remember Barren Realms Elite and Solar Realms Elite? Well, the guy who made those branched out into web based games a while back that still mostly capture the feel of the BBS games despite being HTMl based.

Check out Echelon Games for both of them. Be careful, just like BRE and SRE they are very addictive.

Check out Echelon Entertinment at http://www.eesite.com/. This is obviously a front for the massive spy network.

Take a further look at their Privacy policy. I quote:

Echelon servers note details such as the server you are logged onto, the geographic location of the ISP you use, the type of browser you use, and your IP address.

Do not buy anything from Echelon Entertinment! EVERY PRODUCT has a bug in it which transmits environmental information (temperature, amount of marijuana residue in the air, etc.) along with sound and radiation emissions via microwaves to the Echelon HQ.

The food that Echelon Entertainment sells has chemicals which are mind-altering. They make you believe that people who are concerned about privacy are all paranoid freaks and induce feeling of pride and passion toward the NSA and Echelon.

Their humour and sports section has jokes which use special combinations of words to trigger the feelings that the food you eat produces. (Food + eating = brainwash).

The auction section is simply to make you think you're in control of your life, even though you aren't. Also, everything sold there is junk out of NSA agents' basements.

They also have mailing lists and newspaper publications for spreading their disinformation to the general public. Is their any avenue of thought which they do not stomp on?!

The webmaster's section is the first way for ordinary citizens to participate in a global spy network. They bribe Internet-savvy people into advertising their covert products to their friends, which is how they'll takeover the world.

Send an e-mail to echelon@eesite.com with the following message:

Dear Sir or Madam:

I hereby revoke all rights and privileges of Echelon Entertainment, Inc., its affiliates, or subsidiaries to own my soul. I would like to point out a judicial example, similar to the class action lawsuit which I intend to be apart of, the Salem Witch Trials. I request that you cease and desist from all distribution, commercial or othwerise, of products, consumables, and misinformation which promotes the global spy network known as Echelon.
