Chuckle, and people are worried about City of Heros being a bit
shallow.

I was, and still am, known as the one of best soloers on the MUD I
used to play regularly on, then coded regularly on, and now fix
problems occasionally on.  I enjoyed the large world, the available
social interaction when I wanted it, and the fact that I could quite
happily solo without being led by the nose through a linear
storyline and without being penalised for it.

Where's the MMO that lets me engage in the level of social
interaction I want, when I want, while still letting me be
antisocial and grumpy and go off to find a challenging corner of the
world to fight my way through alone?
