Okay since the other thread is a nice change I thought this one might be fun too. We will have to rely on the honour system more though so no running internet searches for the answers.
I'll start, which game created a little controversy by crucifying a player character?
Comments
I remember reading about that game a few yrs back, it was some Roman Empire game, first one got crucified for ganking noobs
Roma Victor.
Which MMO was described on the front page of a rant site as "a social experiment gone horribly, horribly wrong."?

Just confirming you're right not sure about yours Was it that plague in WoW? When players went around infecting each other?
Or I got the wrong end of the stick and it didn't happen in WoW. Thought it was WoW though.
That was a description for Ultima Online in the sidebar to the popular "Lum the Mad" website.

A Tale In The Desert, maybe? It's a fair description of that game, even if it's not the one you're thinking of.

In Star Wars Galaxies, name the five moons and/or planets you could not place houses on (not counting Hoth)
I know one was UO. Don't know the other.

Well UO was EA so I would guess the other would be warhammer online.
PS, nevermind EAs not revered so I guess either they didn't start with it or the developer rather then publisher is relevant
All I can recall atm..

Correct!
Tseric. I only remember that because it came up in a discussion at E3 that year where the topic was quantifying/assessing the work your CM team is doing.
Which MMO's design document begins with "Death is a serious matter!"?

EvE Online
Which MMO has an NPC that is running out of gold to sell, and needs you to find his "Little Farmer"; a slap at gold farmers?
Eve Online? I recall reading that several times when I used to play.
Which MMO had a profound character/dev/player killed during a public gathering?
What can men do against such reckless hate?
Age of Conan. Also, both the quest giver and the little farmer are from Kithai, the equivalent in Age of Conan of asian countries.
EDIT: double post because I forgot to quote the question... now I can't find how to delete previous one.
What can men do against such reckless hate?
Ultima Online, Lord British, ruler of britannia and Richard Garriot's character, was killed during a public appearance. IIRC the killed was innavertedly exploting a bug when he did it or something like that.
EDIT: looked it up after writting this, there was no bug, the devs had to activate the invulnerability flag anytime they logged in, a server crash had just happened and Richard Garriot had forgoten to turn it on again when he logged back in. The player was banned from the beta (when it happened), but the official word was that it was for previous offenses, for using bugs and exploits he was finding to kill other players instead of reporting them. Suposedly he was allowed to play the game after the beta.
