it was the 1st generation of it;s kind, and probably the beginning of everything there are now
why? i'd have to say the Community, you will never see the same community of now day's MMO compared to Ragnarok back in 2004-07
everything was inch perfect, from level 1 to level 99, all of the users really make the community to the fullest, a very solid game at it's days
the game was fresh at that time, with no mentions of "mimic"-ing other MMOs
then my 2nd would be
FFXI
another great community based MMO, but too bad the game didnt lasted long enough for most of the players due to WoW's popularity at that time, but yeah, these 2 MMO would be my choice of my fave of all time
would have mentioned WoW if it wasn't for the super annoying community of Chuck Norris barrens chat and the wtf Spammers on trade, basically one of the worst MMO community ive ever played
* hey no offense on WoW players , but if you are a WoW player that played since Vanilla, you will understand what im saying
I played Fiesta Online by Outspark and now I'm checking out Ether Saga by Perfect World. Really awesome game. As a Fiesta player, it was really cool to experience the community change and the gameplay change a bit over time since I've been a member since it first launched. Ether Saga's a completely new gaming experience and loving it so far.
It's hard to say, I mean, I hevent been playing MMO's as long as most of you all, but I'd have to go with maybe FFXI... It was my first, and I actually just recently resubbed.
PLAYING: NOTHING!!! PLAYED:FFXI, LotRO, AoC, WAR, DDO, Megaten, Wurm, Rohan, Mabinogi, RoM
Rubies of Eventide. Have played RoE, Dofus, WoW, Guild Wars (all expansions), Warhammer Online and various other i can't recall.
"Traditionally, massively multiplier online games have been about three basic gameplay pillars combat, exploration and character progression. In Alganon, in addition to these we've added the fourth pillar to the equation: Copy & Paste."
Guild Wars, hands down. I have like, 9 level 20s with everything I can possibly need on each... So I don't really play it anymore, but despite that, amazing game...

for me, it'd have to be
Ragnarok Online

So What Now?
I'm gonna go with Tabula Rasa, awesome MMO, great combat, decent story, and nice community.
Pfft...
Definitely Asheron's Call
I never ran out of things to do in that game. It was nothing short of amazing back in the day.
SWG pre-cu & near 8 months in 2007 with SWG.
SWG pre-cu, nothing else has ever come close.
EQ during it's "golden age"

I have fond memories of a very old game called Dark Sun Online. Not my favorite MMO but probably the first one I ever played.

WoW because I played it the most and had the most fun moments.
But the best MMORPG on market i think is EVE Online
Rubies of Eventide. Too bad it is gone now
well all i can say Atlantica online is my favorite mmo however it requires higher specs of graphic cards and also good ram ^^
Luminary: Rise of the GoonZu player
world of warcraft.
the 150 played days says something strange to me.
