I don't see why you have to jump to extremes. I'm pretty sure that both Skotos and WoW would qualify (assuming grahical MMORPG's aren't somehow separated from MUDs, but that's another discussion). Maybe Threshold can confirm that. There's definetly a number of Blizzard employees working fulltime on WoW - at no point was it stated that the MUD has to be the only source of income for the legal entity behind it. I think the same applies also for Skotos - atleast previously Castle Marrach used to be their main game (I have no clue what they are doing nowadays).

Similarily, as this is a moderated list, the other extreme of stockmuds with payment options (not that I really see how they could produce significant revenue) would be filtered out.
