dino
- noun Someone who has been either playing or writing MUAs
for a considerable time. This is usually relative to the MUA:
an Internet player of 2 years' standing might be considered a
dino, but on MUD2 they'd be regarded as comparative newcomers!
For the abbreviationally-impaired, dino is short for
'dinosaur'; it is a term of approbation, a version of
hacker (sense 5) appropriate for MUAs.
See oldbie.
