"In over 10 years on playing MMOs, Guild Wars 2 has by FAR the most amazing community I've ever had the privilage of being a part of."
I wouldn't be at all surprised if getting rid of a lot of the "the other players are the enemy" features e.g. having separate resource nodes, not having players competing to kill the same mobs for a quest etc, makes a huge difference. If you want a social game then other players should never be the enemy unless they're supposed to be. |

It is peculiar how GW 2 has Split Community here...
Guild Wars 1 Community is one of the best. Such is price of popularity I guess... |

Originally posted by Gorwe From my experience with GW1, the community was full of immature players. When I started my first character and asked for a person to party up to get the res signet (Prophecies campaign), someone joined but as soon as we left town left the party. Lot's of immature chat going on too. |

Best: FFXI, Everquest, .....can't think of another good community Worst: WoW, FFXIV, anything else I have played since WoW
MMOs can only have communities if they are challenging and force people to work togather to accomplish something that they could not do on their own. I don't know of a single MMO that still does that. |

BEST Communities: LOTRO and GW2
Worst Communities: WOW, EVE, any full loot pvp MMO and any P2W MMO
Games like SWTOR and AoC kind of fit in the middle. With SWTOR leaning to the worst side and AoC to the better side. STO seemed to have a decent community when I tried it in F2P. |

Oh I think gw2 is pretty good for a modern mmo. But it really really depends what server you are on, I wouldn't like to be on that server where all the 4chan people went

I have no best and worst. I tend to socialise both in guild and randomly with whoever I meet in games. Most of the time I also keep an eye on general chat channels , especially during crafting etc. I meet both great ppl and asses in every MMO. And I see annoying behaviour but also always very helpfull ppl. Regardless of popularity, payment model and how old the MMO is. A difference that I do notice is that when there is a lot of trolling in general chat, the help usually turns to private msges. I can tell from when I have questions about things. But this is all from personal experience of course. It might make a difference that I don't really expect much when there is so many people. You always get some annoying behaviour when many ppl are around imo, It only takes a few ppl to make it noticable. MMO's are not different in this. |

Based on my experience with other players on my server... The above average: EQ2(2005-2008), Vanguard, Planetside Far below average: Mortal Online and EvE
Aion, Rift, SWTOR, and other have been typically average and because there isn't really much (features) that is community drivien it can't exceed that flat threshold. If there were such things it might mean it would be above or below average based on what the players do with it. MO and EvE, players are cutthroat RPG-PvPers and so they abuse the community to their advantage. Where the game is more PvE centered or PvP is cooperative, the community has the potential to be better.
Curious, why did the OP delete his/her account? |

I must say I always play on RP servers (if possible), so there might be some differences in experiences. Top 3:
Bottom 2:
Basically it's all about how you approach people. I myself like to socialise and chat more than killing stuff and often times I'd be killing for an hour and chatting for about double the killing time. This leads to only really getting along with like-minded people, which leads to a social environment. If there was an asshat around, I'd just swap to a chat (guild, area, party, whatever) that did have nice people and let the other person. Often this works, but if there's no people to really talk to it's kinda game over. "We need men who can dream of things that never were." - John F. Kennedy |
