Is there any simple text-based RPG CMS's? I don't want PHPBB, IPB, vB, Mambo, PHP-NUKE, or any other CMS mods. The RPG is for people that aren't tech-savvy at all.

can i ask...

what in the world is a "text-based" rpg?

like... there is no visual simulation?

is it like...


woody8624: cmd/ strike balthum926;
woody8624: strikes balthum926 with hatchet (balthum926's life is now 86%);

woody8624: cmd/ strike balthum926;
woody8624: strikes balthum926 with hatchet (balthum926's life is now 50%);

woody8624: cmd/ strike balthum926;
woody8624: strikes balthum926 with hatchet (balthum926's life is now 42%);

someone43534: shoves tnt up balthum926's ... (balthum926's life is now 0%);

woody8624: here is four gold coins for your trouble. thanks! (to: someone43534);

bank:woody8624 has paid someone43534 four gold coins? (woody8624's new balance: 297 million gold 20 silver);

someone43534: thanks... etc... (to: woody8624);


like that...? :D

(seriously asking, though) is that how it is... ish?

For us. you use a community like this, create a character and each post you make describes what your character does and says. There is some visualization, but not like Diablo, mostly graphics for maps and characters.
