Since we're on the broad subject of MMO successes and flops, I do feel like EverQuest had an overall better community than modern day games because there was more accountability. If you were of unsavory character, your actions were held against you. You weren't able to transfer/name change your way out of being a dick. When those options came about, there was a distinct decline in individual character and general trustworthiness. There was no more accountability. The solid close-knit community fractured.
It's 1:30 am and I'm parched. Forgive my ramblings if they're incoherent and/or off-topic.
