shell accounts are not free (if you're not a student usually) anymore = paying for Genesis ...

You sure about that?

Not like its totally free, of course depends on what you want to do but most would like outgoing access

"Outgoing network access - excluding the lynx web browser - has been restricted to supporters. Unfortunately, we have to be a good net citizen, and offering complete internet access to everyone at no charge simply isn't possible for our organization."

Ahh, the fine print

FrostMUD.com even offers free MUD hosting.

Surely there are some other possibilities...

You know, you could just simply host your own server. I've installed FreeBSD on a crap old computer that I no longer use. Since all you are going to do is telnet, you don't need any extra powerful machine or something. For a while I was using 512Mb ram, Pentium III processor with a NIC card. If you have a old machine lying around, it's free.
