  MOO-Cows FAQ: Server Related
A MOO programmer could use all the memory, CPU, or disk on the partition that MOO is dumping to.
The TYPE_OBJ and TYPE_ERR cases are handled similarly, representing MOO object numbers and error codes; their respective values are found in x.v.obj (a C integer) and x.v.err (an element of the C enumeration type `enum error').
You should never modify a MOO string value, since all MOO values are immutable and you can't easily tell if maybe some other part of the MOO is also holding onto a pointer to that string.

  MOO - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
MOO was originally developed as a MUD server in the same general style (sharing much of the command syntax and community conventions) as TinyMUD.
Some servers use MOO style object oriented characteristics without being descended from the original MOO server, in the sense that they use little or none of that server's source code and use internal languages that are more or less incompatible with the MOO programming language.
LinguaMOO is an educational MOO dedicated to general studies of arts and humanities, created in 1995 by Cynthia Haynes of the University of Texas at Dallas and Jan Rune Holmevik of the University of Bergen.

 [No title]
In most MOOs, the archwizard is the one who founded the MOO, is the systems operator of the MOO server (computer on which the MOO resides) and is considered the director and ultimate decision-maker.
While the sense of place and permanence that is achieved on MOO can contribute to the meaningfulness of the learning experience, some users simply have difficulty adjusting to having a virtual self (their "character") somewhere in cyberspace.
Given that MOO is a program that runs on a remote computer, it is accessed by opening a telnet program, typing in the server name and port number, and then connecting at the log-in screen of the MOO.

 MOO and IRC
MOO users type lines of text which, if high traffic on the Internet is not slowing things down, is displayed instantly on the screens of those with whom the writer wants to communicate.
Because the landscape of a MOO comprises a geographical area such as a university, communication always takes place "somewhere" (a dorm room, a meeting hall, a restaurant, in the middle of the street) and often involves the manipulation of "something" (a note pad, a bulletin board, a newspaper, an essay, a street sign).
The MOO environment can be enhanced regularly by programmers who create language learning aids, administrators who encourage native speakers to be helpful to language learners, and wizards who use programming to set a theme, watch over public behaviors, and maintain security controls that are sensitive to the needs of learners and native speakers alike.

 Introduction to MOO
The MOO is such a place; the only limit is your ability to imagine and describe the places and objects you wish to create, from the most scenic landscapes to your most inspired flights of fantasy.
The MOO can also be a space for representing information, sharing research, and constructing new forms of electronic text.
In a MOO, you can talk to people like you would in chat, but you can also perform actions (called 'emoting'), make rooms or other places, describe them, link them together, and visit the places other people have made.

 Web Teaching Case Studies: Jan Rune Holmevik and Cynthia Haynes
