Re: Autism & Role-playing Games
I'll take a wild guess that the majority of MUD players fall somewhere on the Autism spectrum. From the absolute mildest form of "generic social awkwardness" and upward. Mostly we're just a bunch of misfits Another interesting guess - is that MUDs tend to attract people with ADD, because the screen scroll feeds our mental motion needs, while allowing us to actually focus on one very specific thing (the game we're playing).
