This is a really subjective question. I haven't played Avalon, but if you're looking for RP MUDs, there are quite a number of them out there. Personally, I have had some pretty bad experiences (MUDs that spew colour all over the place making it difficult to tell what sort of things are important, relevant or special) and I've had some good ones (where players really enjoy interacting with each other). The thing about RP is that you get out of it what you put into it and often how good a MUD is really boils down to its community or player base. At Threshold, we really love the community that has evolved around our game. Game changes both major and minor have come about as a result of player-driven events. We provide the backdrop, but it's the players who really bring it to life.

I hope you find what you're looking for, the MUD genre of gaming always welcomes the injection of new players who bring their fresh ideas and roleplay.
