None because MMORPGs have mutated into a genre I'm not interested in.
The last thing I want to waste my time on is doing fetch-quest (that I've done thousands of times already) following a "story" doing everything solo then after surviving such boring endeavor I hopefully may participate in a lobby-multiplayer (instance infested) "world" filled with epic-loot, dailies and "dynamic events". Nope, that doesn't sound like something I'm interested in.

Trying to play an MMO where I don't instantly regret installing and/or paying for it right away. I always seem to get that whole "Oh this looks it's fun again" -> Login / Resub -> "Nope. Still shite. *sigh*"

I had a friend who played Rift for a LONG time, raiding guild and all. He only recently quit and is playing FFXIV now. As far as I know, his guild was still goin and some of his friends still play there, though mostly seem to be slowly leaving.

You can see it already, if a game got it's own subforum or if it's thread is constantly on top, it's something people are interested in. If I wanted to report my gaming habits, I would have xfire or something, even all 10 people from here I have added on Steam are good metric of what I could be interested in.

Playing TERA again. The levelup character got me to try a berserker, since they sucked for months after release but got buffed long after I quit. There's a decent amount of content now, although the new dungeons are all too easy, especially Wonderholme "Hard Mode". I've never even done normal mode, there's no point. Berserker is a lot of fun though, even more than my slayer ever was, and especially since the latest patch which granted attack speed bonuses to our charge-up attacks.
That said, the RNG retardation in the game is worse than ever before. Masterworking, spellbinding, and enchanting from +9 to +12 is such an ungodly clusterfuck that it ensures there's absolutely no fun in getting new loot unless it's a massive upgrade. Kind of hard to keep playing a MMO when there's simply no carrot at all, only the stick.

GW2 again. Not playing balls to the wall like I was at release though. Lot of fun.
I played p99 for a bit but after the nostalgia wore off I remembered that leveling in EQ was absolute ass.

None. The last ones I played was P99 and SWG Emu...I just can't get back into the combat system of, essentially, sitting there. Looking forward to Star Citizen, mainly for the crafting and economy side. I find that more interesting than combat these days.
Only play FTP games now.
Rift last few 2 months, its ok, every part of it is on rails.
Just started MarvelHeroes, so far so good, reminds me of CoH, jumping into a huge pack of baddies and blasting away.
Doesnt really seem to be anything out there atm im burning to play.

I'm kind of suprised at the amount of people still plugging away at Everquest. Do people play on Test or elsewhere?

I got nothing now since I quit the EQ Fippy server when Twisted Legion broke up. I dabbledi n live EQ on Vox 6 boxing but it wasn't the same. Re started on P99 with some old IB guys...didn't hook me again.
It would take a group of pals that motivated me and made the game awesome together to get me to get into a MMO again
