A better interface can help a lot but I don't think its the main issue. Quite a few newbies that leave real quick are frequent MUD players who just weren't satisfied. I think bringing in more players to the community and informing them simply of what MUDs are and how they work could go a long way.

Having nice clients and interfaces to go along with that certainly couldn't hurt. However having a fancy interface isn't going to make much of a dent if most of the people seeing it are already still inside the MUD community instead of being a new face. It's just batting around the same people as usual.
