#1338, "What they said, but additionally"


          

I'm guessing you're using Windows XP and the default for their telnet client is local echo off. I highly recommend you get a mud client like Aarn and DurNominator suggested.

But if you cannot/do not want to, to connect using what Windows comes with, do the following:

1) Go to Start Menu and choose Run
2) Type "telnet.exe" (without the quotes) in the space. Hit OK.
3) A new window will open saying:

Welcome to Microsoft Telnet Client

Escape Character is

Microsoft Telnet>

4) Type "set localecho" (without the quotes)

It will say Local echo on

5) Type "open carrionfields.com 9999" (without the quotes)

Now you'll see what you type.
