level

  1. noun In a MUA, personae normally advance by acquiring points. When a persona's accumulated total exceeds some threshhold, the persona is granted new abilities, stats and prestige. These bands of equal status are known as levels. In MUD2, levels all have names depending on which stream a persona is in and whether or not it is a PP. Personae are described in terms of their current level, eg. "Exel the warlock". See arch-wiz, champ, necro, novice, sorc, super, swordy, wiz, yeo, build up, make <level>, postfix, prefix, work up, legend.
  2. noun Distance from the computer in programming terms. See high level (sense 3), low level (sense 3).
