But what does "MOO," as you used it, mean???
Bureaucracy 1: Like Kafka, Only Funnier
A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

Shit, I used to know! You know. It's a text environment, and you build rooms, and objects, and, and, I am not being articulate girl. It's a MUD. I forget the difference between a MOO and a MUD.
Um-- I don't know what a MUD is either?
A mud is a Multi-User Dimension (or Dungeon) -- it's a collaboratively built virtual space. Sort of like Sang Sacre. A MOO is something that as far as I could ever tell is exactly the same thing, but with different initials.
From [link]
Short for Mud, Object Oriented, a specific implementation of a MUD system developed by Stephen white. MOO is in the public domain and can be freely downloaded and executed.
So it's a specific implementation of a MUD.

Calls for a music thread again, BTW.
Which I'm still against.
MOO apparently is a recursive acronym, standing for MUD Object Oriented.
