Believe it or not, some people choose to use plain and simple Telnet to mud. There are some muds that I have encountered, albeit several years ago, that would not work on Telnet as the colour codes either were visible as codes or, even worse, made some words invisible.
If you do use colour for words, I would urge you to test them out in both Telnet and another client before they go to your active mud server.
On a personal level, I think too much colour makes text very hard to read. Stick to grey on black or whatever monochrome you have. People with configurable clients can do whatever they like to the mud output.
