Comments
Because it looked pretty when i read the review.
Because i can't figure out how the hell to close my account, and that battleship is calling my name...
Because I like pain.
Well, I only played it for the free month...
I will start playing World of Warcraft when it comes out, though.
Currently waiting for WoW to get back into it.
I would poop my pants with joy if they remade Tradewars into an MMO.
I'm going to suggest a good collection of pay to play muds. It's only 13$ per month though and you get a nice variety that you can play as much as you want. There is also a free trial.

Call me if they redesign the entire objectives system but keep the classes/vehicles/weapons/etc cause those all rocked...
MMORPGs are EVIL.
Free online MMorpg.

Not free online game still in alpha. Really good alpha. It's closed right now, but I'll make a post when the next phase (beta) starts.

Neocron = Ragnarok > Asheron's Call 2 > ProgressQuest > Death by Pencil Sharpner > Runescape > EQ > Dark Ages of Camelot > Priston Tale
Planeshift is so incomplete I can't even put it in that list... you can walk about and talk and that's about it =s
I would actually check out runescape

I played planetside if that counts <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
actually I beta tested it...
It's mainly just the fact the later parts of the crafter system, loot and content need rethinking that's all. For all I know they might've fixed it up since I last played... that or everyone finally left like they were threatening to over the crafting system not being given enough wub at the higher tiers ^^;

I dont touch in any graphical multiplayer role playing game (i hate that billion miles long mmmppasporpg abbreviation). Progressquest pwns and then one nice MUD of course. At least in Icesus they agree all being pervert nerds and then whack either each other or some hopeless monsters.
Theres just something hopelessly clumsy in every billion zillion player "RPG"s which I have seen. "miners make money well. So all you gotta do is click your mattock like this *click* and then click this rock here *click* and do that 5000 per day for couple months and youre set to kill some monsters!"
We do mob killing too in that mud (Multi User Dungeon, that nerdie games wheres only green text scrolling in monitor) but atleast we can do it five different ways (bad way, good way, funny way, roleplaying way, drunken way and everybody-drunk way). And because its free and I can idle 30 hours per day in there and maybe later take three week boat trip again its my favorite by now <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
edit: just a quick thought. Runescape is like Counter Strike, both has gazillion players and still nobody know how the heck can they keep on playing it?
Either way they're all flawed in ways that eventually become apparent over time and stop you playing them -.-
I could not STAND playing Ragnarok Online.
It was just so... ergh, I just hated everything about it. I didn't even get my jobclass before I uninstalled. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

I agree. The main problem with planetside is (or was, haven't played since beta, but not much has changed afaik), that you can spend an entire day fighting to take control of a continent, then when you wake up the next day, it's been re-captured while most of your race/faction was asleep.
I used to guide people through the pyramids to the thief guild for fun and do tours ^^
