[edit] MMO or MMORPG?

On the site it says that it is an MMO, but in the article it refers to it as an MMORPG. Is this accurate? Quadrantz (talk) 23:13, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

MMO is an abbreviation for MMORPG. MMORPG actually stands for Massive (sometimes Massively) Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game. MMO means Massive (or Massively) Multiplayer Online, and can refer to all multiplayer online games, not just RPGs (Role-Playing Games). So it's technically both an MMO and an MMORPG. I've used MMORPG in the article because I think it makes a little more sense. Alinnisawest (talk) 02:17, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
How about Massive Multiplayer Online Game? I doubt you can interact with other player in-game, like the first three. Captain | contribs 13:38, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

You can, in fact, interact with other players in it.Gravelz (talk) 15:23, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

True. But all three terms (MMO, MMOG, and MMORPG) are often used to describe the same thing- a multiplayer, online game. And in AQW, you can interact with other people at the same time. And it even works on dial-up! AE is amazing! Alinnisawest (talk) 16:10, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
Then it's MMORPG. Captain | contribs 06:50, 5 June 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Sir Ver

I think it would be worthwhile to mention the sever AQW runs on -- nicknamed Sir Ver, for those of you who didn't know. "Sir Ver" is in a sense a mascot for the game, was named by the players, and has been given a picture. I think at least a mention and perhaps his picture deserve a place somewhere in the article.

Well, he's more of an in-joke than an integral part of the game. Wikipedia is for information, not stuff that's only important to players of the game. In the AE Wikiproject, we generally go by the Video Games Wikiproject article guidelines, although I think Eruhildo was going to write some up specifically for our Wikiproject. So they basically say that if it's only important or informational to players of the game, it shouldn't be included. Alinnisawest (talk) 04:46, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
