Why not? If you use the Telnet protocol on
telnet://lambda.moo.mud.org:8888/, you'll get interaction with LambdaMOO.
But if you ask a proxy using the HTTP protocol, a 303 redirecting you
to http://www.lambdamoo.info/ is perfectly sensible.

It was dreary and wearisome. Cold clammy winter still held way in this
forsaken country. The only green was the scum of livid weed on the dark
greasy surfaces of the sullen waters. Dead grasses and rotting reeds loomed
up in the mists like ragged shadows of long-forgotten summers.
