There are many more MOOs out there, and many people using them. They’ve developed quite a support group.
On the Net, an ‘FAQ’ is a collection of Frequently Asked Questions—and their answers. The Newbie Arch-Wizard FAQ is for people setting up a MOO who don't know anything about MOOs. It's on a gopher site. Get to it via gopher at gsep.pepperdine.edu, and look in the directories technical and then MUD-MOO. The file is new-archwiz-faq.txt. If you're using World-Wide Web, the URL is:

MOO-COWs is a group of people who use electronic mail to discuss MOO-related issues. In order to take part in the mailing list, you need to subscribe. Get more information about MOO-Cows at:

Pavel Curtis' MOO, LambdaMOO, is running at lambda.moo.mud.org, on port 8888. There is also an ftp site designated for MOO issues, at ftp.lambda.moo.mud.org, in /pub/MOO. The URL for World-Wide Web is:
ftp://ftp.lambda.moo.mud.org/pub/MOO/
The official programmer's manual is there in text and postscript formats.
There is a special World-Wide Web server set up for MOOs at:

There is a web site at www.hoboes.com for MOO objects. The World-Wide Web URL is:
