    The sad part is I just picked an example from my gameshelf I'm pretty sure there were one or two before Ultima also.

    I was going to say, 0/10 for using such archaic worn-out bait.... but you actually caught some bites. :|

    UO/EQ might have been released before WoW, but they're not MMOs. Neither of them had raids, a leveling system or a function to talk to one and another online, the three main pillars in a MMO

    I am going to assume you are being sarcastic...I know EQ wasnt the first MMO but it was my first MMO and it definitely had raids, leveling and the ability to talk to other people online.

    It's like the forums trolls don't even try any more... Remember when bait threads were actually subtle and smart?
