I apologize for having caused you any grief, Grimm. It's a part of my vendetta against MMORPGs. They've taken my money and my time, and what they gave me in return was practically worthless. I feel scammed. I hate them. Hate them. And now I'm seeing it happen again, only to OTHER young and innocent, soon to be old and violated, gamers. It fills me with bile and anger, and I couldn't hold it back. While my means were questionable, my motivation was pure: I only tried to save you. I'll leave you alone now.
No, Gem, I never played PSO. I never had a Dreamcast, and I've never hooked a console up to the internet (and I don't know if I ever will). I've tried UO, DAoC, AO and AC2, in that order, and out of those, DAoC had the best combat system. I'm not saying it was good, but it was better than the others.
Force role playing, Uranium? How would you do that? No, there is no way to force role playing. But a modicum of role playing would be nice, considering that "MMORPG" contains "role playing game". The rigorous filters on character names that I hear WoW uses seem like a good start. Nothing spoils roleplaying as much as suddenly having a dwarf called "lolololol668" running across your screen. You can't FORCE players to role play, but you can help them.
