Since you didn't provide any useful clues:
"Citadel as BBS software came online in 1981. The ideas behind it
are even older than that. In 1978, on a timeshared PDP-10 at the UW
there was a multi-user game called DandD.pas loosely resembling what
is now known as a MUD. A feature of DandD.pas was being able to
write on the walls of rooms. Soon the communication in the rooms
became as important as the game itself. "
Have you tried Jason Scott?
I assume the name is the only similarity to the following? Also
dating back to the PDP-10.
