What MMORPG are you currently playing? Give me a couple good things about it and a couple bad. As well as why you're playing it.
Oh, and please don't turn this into a flame thread... in fact, don't even respond to other people. JUST this question.

Dark Age of Camelot:
Time played: release till May 2004
Pros: The best damn Pvp system ever created. Not many MMO's let you fight 200 other players with a framrate of 0.2. Steady leveling system. There was very and I mean very little powerleveling and you didn't level too fast like WoW. Based on the middle ages, celtic and viking lore. Each class had it's own strength and weaknesses. Quests actually told a little history about each realm. Easy to learn combat system. Fighter classes could use weapon skills in fights instead of pushing a button and waiting like early Kunark EQ. One of the best, in my opinion, customer service divisions. Easy to roleplay a viking, knight, or celt.
Cons: Unbalanced PvP. Certain casters called Spiritmasters and Enchanters could drop a group in just a few hits. I'll probably get flamed for this but Trials of Atlantis expansion. Some of the new skills and items from the expansion were way overpowered. People started using bots which did cause the decline for healers in groups.
City of Heroes:
Time Played: May 2004-
Pros: Easy combat system. Unique upgrade system. You use enhancements to improve attacks or buffs. Some missions linked into a "story-line" which rewards nice xp. If you choose groups the missions had more mobs. Soloers could level up almost as fast as groups. No kill on sight PvP.
Cons: A lot of immature players..but you find em in any online game. The current Pvp is horrible but City of Villians is fixing that. WAY too many people could powerlevel to 50 in days. Customer Service could use some work. Very little roleplaying.
I do reccomend both games. Not sure if CoH has a free trial but DAoC has that 14 day one that's worth trying out.
Currently none but i do get bored after like a week of playing then switch to a new mmorpg!
Atm i'm just waiting for the DOF expansion on EQ2 because it will bring in PVP
