When a developer is asked what is the most popular MMOG, they will
typically say EQ.  When they are asked about Lineage, an often heard
response is, "Well, that doesn't count."  My question is, why
doesn't Lineage count?  It does in fact have the highest
subscription rate, right?

Also, people seem to be making a big deal out of which MMOG will be
the first one to get over a million subscriptions in America.  I
guess I would understand if no other online game has ever done that
before, but Lineage was the first in the world...
