Tell me what you think:
I will create a web site that mud owners can post their muds on, not as an
advertisement, but as a way for players to inform the admins if their mud
has crashed, eg. I go to the site, post my mud. One day my mud crashes, and
I am at the movies. My players log online to the web site, and click on a
few buttons that will send either an SMS message, email, ICQ, MSN, or AIM to
the admin so they know the mud has crashed and to attend to is ASAP.
The owners will be able to specify what they would like the alert sent to
(SMS, email, ICQ, MSN, or AIM) when they sign up. As my intentions are not
to start up something like TMC, the mud's address and port will NOT be
posted on the web site. There will also be a feature to check if the mud is
just down for the specific player (a router could be down etc.), or for
everyone.
So, what do you think? Do you like the idea? Any improvements?
