I don't recall Threshold ever being required pay to play. Just a registration fee or upgrade type fees which were always voluntary and reasonable.

Anyhoo,

I'm seeking out those other Muds, but the three I remembered are now defunct. You have to know this was years and years ago. Currently, I'd say Threshold has the best descriptive and variety of religion if that is what you like.

There are religions and gods in NW, but I'm not telling you about them, you have to be in the game to find out ;-P
