It's just like the old MUD games. I used to play and code Diku MUDs quite a bit.
You got the code and a default world file of about 16 rooms. Nobody gave away their world files.
Lots of people set up a basic MUD but hardly anyone joined to play those. Only the teams that put a lot of work into their worlds got players.
I just looked up two of my favorites. Arctic MUD and MUME are *still* going.
