Speaking as a former mud addict, I've definitely noticed how this
can be devestating to academics. I don't think that muds are the
root cause of this, however. MUDing instead of doing work, at least
in my experiance, is simply one way if not doing work. If I wasn't
mudding (and now I'm not, really), I'd be doing something else (Like
reading or programming, or, an old favorite, watching TV). MUDs
aren't the cause of the problem, just the chosen implement of
destruction.
