Then mind my asking, but what in lord allmighty's name is World of Warcraft doing in the list?
Perhaps because it is ... 10.000 more worth gold than the other duds in the list.. ?
Yet i fail to see how it fits in the category, sure it has the most subsribers in an MMO ever, and probably will hold that title for years to come, but it still isn't in the golden age nor old school category like the "duds" in the list, which actually paved the way for WoW which is nothing but a copy paste of the features already present in all of those games.
perfect world!why?their global version is avail globally for the most part!
others loltends to ipblock too much like webzen(s.u.n)
or gpotato(aika)and ton of other game
often the one making the game is too small on its own so they sell ton of licencing agreement to the downfall of player
i will watch this in the futur for my game fix because being ipblocked later is truelly an unhappy dight that nobody can do anythinbg about!i sure can do one thing
i wont play game that arent avail global and tend to do a european version etc
i would go worldwide but there probably isnt even one that can be played world wide(but then i could be wrong!
I put WoW in to see how much people would vote for it compared to oldschool MMos. WoW got more votes than any other MMo, but in a way it didn't win and actually lost 26% to 74%. According to the poll, oldschool MMos>new MMos.
If wow is winning on a site where hate threads about it pop up like mushrooms after rain ...then theres deffo something wrong with this world
The peoples that hate it are not too many. They just post a lot. Those who like it do not feel the need to make threads of how awesome it is. Seriously, did you expected another game on top?

Its "cool" to hate on WoW these days, its comforting for people to come together to hate something as a community. Like you Im not surprised with the poll result.

LOL after lurking on this site for two years and posting for a couple months this is the first time i've seen WoW win a poll.
I guess most of us are actually playing something since we have more sandbox games to choose from now. We arent as represented as we used to be.

Your wrong Its "cool" to play WoW. Thats the problem most of us have with you guys. You act as if somethings wrong with picking a different type of game. Oh and god forbid a mmo doesnt release with 6 years of content and a 30+ million dollar budget then its complete fail according to the WoW fans.
We don't hate WoW, its the players that annoy the shit out of us.
EVE - imo the best mmo ever created......and there is nothing on the horizon that looks like it might take its place.
Playing: PO, EVE Waiting for: WoD Favourite MMOs: VG, EVE, FE and DDO Any person who expresses rage and loathing for an MMO is preposterous. He or she is like a person who has put on full armor and attacked a hot fudge sundae.
Although I've been playing EVE longer than any other game, I voted for DAOC as it really captured the feel of the land of Camelot and would have stuck around much longer had Mythic not screwed the pooch with the TOA/New Frontiers expansions.
Just trying to live long enough to play a new, released MMORPG, playing New Worlds atm

From my time on these forums I can say with the utmost certainty that WoW fans bashing other games are few and far between, what's worse is the number of jaded vets who bash it every chance they get (see OP). It's a vocal minority who are simply bored and frustrated with todays MMO's, not that I really blame them for that.

How am I acting like there is something wrong with playing another type of game? I didnt say anything about other game types being bad...I played my share of sandbox style games and find them just as good. If it was just the players of WoW getting the hate then we wouldnt have tons of threads popping up daily stating that WoW and its clones are ruining everything from gameplay to the earth's ozone layer.

Every player that posts a closeminded comment about a upcoming game, every post flaming a indy sandbox or themepark that isnt like WoW is some WoW fan ruining the genre more and more trying to sway people away from that game.
Every post of "this isnt a mmo" "QQ too many instances" "The combat is Fail" is a WoW player expecting world of warcraft from every tp game. Every comment of "Wheres the endgame" is a ex-wow player that is searching for the next WoW.
The WoW players heavily outweight the Other mmo fans on this site they just do a very good job of not promoting WoW directly. They forum warrior every other game. Look at the heat they gave AoC, WAR, Lotro, Aion, CO.... Look at the ignorant posts on DF, FE and EvE forums.
Ultima Online really. mainly because it was my first love when i was a teenager when it came out. God my dad used to yell at me so much for taking up the phone line (What's cable modems?). Ah to be that young and to enjoy MMO's like that again.

All WoW or Ex-WoW players that have no clue.
I dont blame people for hating on them.
You hate peoples because they like a certain type of game? Because they expect certain features from a mmo? It's their taste after all. That's the kind of game some players want and if they don't find it in some other game they will not like it. What's to hate about it?
