Interesting post, knowing where some players stand on these types of things can be very beneficial to MUD administrators. Other than going into a long rebuttal about some of your opinions ( many of which I agree with) I will just point out one flaw with the text community vs graphical game comparisons.
Although not always by the game companies choice, nearly all of the MMORPG out there (most definitely the more popular ones) have a "buy your way to power" mechanic in place. It is pretty common to find players in these games who have acquired things by paying rl cash through auctions or broker services. Also expansion packs for MMORPGs increase the available content at additional costs, much how the DR / GS games charge for extended services.
Best of luck in finding one that suites you.
