Due to sharing of the same software developer, Jeremy Elson, JediMUD has often been tightly tied to the evolution of the popular MUD code-base, CircleMUD.
JediMUD enjoys an international audience, including players from the US, UK, Germany, Norway, Austria, Australia, Sweden, Brazil, South Africa, the Philippines, Japan, Costa Rica and many others. Some individuals have been playing JediMUD since its inception.
One former contributor to JediMUD created a YouTube video to illustrate the tight ties to history that several zones in the game have. Whereas some games focus on their own imaginary world, many JediMUD contributors have added zones based on historical figures and occurrences, such as the life of Emperor Honorius Augustus.

Famous quotes containing the word community:
“The community has no bribe that will tempt a wise man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Populism is folkish, patriotism is not. One can be a patriot and a cosmopolitan. But a populist is inevitably a nationalist of sorts. Patriotism, too, is less racist than is populism. A patriot will not exclude a person of another nationality from the community where they have lived side by side and whom he has known for many years, but a populist will always remain suspicious of someone who does not seem to belong to his tribe.”
—John Lukacs (b. 1924)
“when Mrs Kindhead comes to collect for the Community Chest
grab her and tell her There are unfavorable omens in the sky!
And when the mayor comes to get my vote tell him
When are you going to stop people killing whales!”
—Gregory Corso (b. 1930)
