The MUSH is as easy to access as IRC; there are telnet clients for every
platform, and most operating systems have specific MUSH clients as well.
I've never had any luck with web-based chat systems, and they don't work
at all for people who only have "shell" access.
IRC is fine as far as it goes, but it's *only* good for chatting. A MUSH
has potential that goes far beyond a simple venue for talking with others,
but it's trivially simple to use it just to chat if that's what you want.

No, not really.
