I got rid of the old, bootleg MUD client. You can instead use this one: http://www.kinslayermud.org/mudclient/mudclient.php
It uses HTML5 WebSockets so you will need a browser that does not suck, such as anything that is not Internet Explorer.
Since we have complete control over the code for this client, I plan to pimp it out, so feel free to add suggestions.
