I don't really think it is fair to imply that non-graphical MUDS = Storyline and Graphical MMMORGs = No Storyline. Bear in mind that there are only a small number of graphical MMORGs available and thousands upon thousands of MUDs.

Sure, some muds have story and RP. However, just doing a search on this very site proves that there are quite a lot (maybe even a majority) of MUDS that are all about hack and slash.

Basically what I am saying is that being graphical does not necessitate a lack of story or roleplay. I submit A Tale in the Desert as a good example (). Nor does being non-graphical necessitate a rich storyline or roleplay (I submit almost all godwars MUDs as an example). Give the MMORG market a few more years to expand and grow and you will see more diversity and specificity.
