If planning to code on an LP Mud (or any older mud) then I recommend C as C++ and C# both have significent differences. A lot depends on the mud you want to code on though - I recommend finding and playing the mud before you decide to code for it. Once you know that then the admin there will be able to tell you what language they are using.
Certainly on Zeb we don't let people become coders until they have played the game (the usual rule being at least one character to legend level) and we feel that they are ready for the responsibility.
As a side note C# is basically microsofts bastard cross-breading of C++ and Java. It has some nice features but I don't see it being used much for muds in the immediate future - although I am using it a lot at work.
