    MUD = Multiuser Dungeon or Multiuser Dimension

    MUSH = MultiUser Shared Hallucination

    That is a matter of preference. MUSHs are usually MUCH more social, and mush codebases mostly don't even have combat.

    MUDs are pretty much the basis of most modern RPGs, and have lots of fighting typically.

    I like MUSHes.

    Yes, if you look at most MUSH codebases, they are battleless unless people make their own. Which is totally possible.
