First MMO I ever played was Ragnarok online. I was drawn to the anime style cartoony avatars. <3
From there I moved on to Graal online (formerly Zelda online until the lawsuit) spent many years there, Back to Ragnarok online private servers (SHAME ON ME. ILLEGAL.) Guild Wars. Tried many many other indie MMOs but they all essentially sucked, friend refer a friended me to WoW. I played that for a bunch until I realized he had no intentions of playing WITH me and just wanted the free mount and sub time (huh, good guy.) Stopped for a year. Another friend of mine found out I tried WoW, heard my story, and was like '<Not Permitted> that guy, come play with me and my guild instead!' Been back ever since. I have Guild Wars 2, Elder Scrolls online, and Wildstar Online, and Star Wars; The Old Republic. (SWTOR is really falling apart since free 2 play though..)
