link-dead

( adj.)

   [MUD]  The  state a player is in when they kill their connection to a
   {MUD}  without  leaving it properly. The player is then commonly left
   as  a  statue in the game, and is only removed after a certain period
   of time (an hour on most MUDs). Used on {IRC} as well, although it is
   inappropriate in that context. Compare {netdead}.
