Ever Quest 2
EQ2 is a good game, I played it for many years and had made many friends and had a lot of fun doing it. However it has become a shadow of it's original self. The game from levels 1-79 has become a solo grind fest as hardly anyone in the lower levels bothers to group anymore, you simply don't need to it's become that easy. EQ2 has never concentrated on PvP, and from the looks of it, the devs have promised that they will never balance the game for PvP. About 99% of the "battles" are like bringing a knife to a gun fight. If you are not a Shadow Knight or Warlock/Wizard you cannot possibly win.
The worst part about my experience in the game had nothing to do with the game itself, but the players in the game and that was the economy. Leveling crafting or buying items was a nightmare. When you do reach the endgame you will find yourself grinding the same zones over and over and over for Void shards and now Tokens, with the last expansion, to get the exact same gear every other player of that class has. While it is certainly possible to solo the content practically from start to finish, Everquest 2 was designed to be a group based game, and like all MMO's, a lot of the appeal of playing it is the potential for joining and participating in community based activities, including quest completions and instances.
