Indeed many do, but I don't know of any pay-for-perks muds which don't - which isn't really surprising, as competitive activities are probably one of the greatest incentives for players to invest.

But check the description for Achaea:

"The flagship MUD from the #1 new text MUD company in the last 10 years, Achaea is a fully original world focusing on depth, roleplaying, and most importantly, PvP and Group vs. Group action of all kinds"

The other IRE muds have similar comments - they pride themselves on the quality of PvP action they provide, and rightly so.

But that doesn't change the fact that they are no more 'free' than most of the pay-to-play muds, and I'd rather see the TMS database simply avoid mention of payment method entirely rather than providing misleading information.
