That's the point really. MMORPG is a redundant acronym. WoW is a MUD. Or, Achaea is an MMORPG. They're synonyms to me. We market our games as MUDs to the text MUD community and as MMORPG to the graphical MUD community, because that's what they expect to hear, but when talking to other developers, I just use MUD or MMORPG to refer to everything from a small DIKU to WoW. Certainly when talking to other developers at industry conferences, nobody is confused by using them as synonyms.
