Played Diablo, a pseudo-MMO, which got me into Ultima Online. Played UO from shortly after launch (fall of '97) and been hooked ever since.

So...
Ultima Online (10/10/97)
Everquest
Asheron's Call (beta only)
Anarchy Online
Dark Age of Camelot (from early beta on - a Mythic dev was in my EQ guild :)
(Had a kid, insert a few years of RL here)
Star Wars Galaxies (from mid-beta until the NGE gutted the game... FU SOE)
Shadowcove (a heavy-RP UO emulator server)
EVE Online
WoW

which gives me a /played time of 10 years, 10 months, 9 days. Holy cow.

Out of that list, my favorites were UO and SWG. I much prefer skill-based games to level-based ones because of the near infinite ways to customize a character and the way the players drive the economy more than the game design does (playing the game economy is way more fun to me than fighting, and I've been a full time crafter in every game that had that as a viable profession). However, I also love WoW because it is just so damned well implemented. It's like they took every level-based game that came before it, threw out the stuff that didn't work, and perfected the stuff that did.

Interestingly, many of the people I met back in UO in '97 - Sorronn, Telumehtar, Menereg, Arramen, Althes, Ornalis, Kyilen, Pwyll, Brygitte - are my guildmates in WoW. MMO's for me have been as rich a social experience as any face to face friendships.

Star Wars Galaxies -- summer it came out, stopped when school started again.

City of Heroes -- from open beta until school began again
City of Villains -- from release for a few months
(renewed both of these for a couple months last fall, then stopped again)

WoW -- since Jan. 2005, with a few significant breaks (probably aabout 3 years total subscribed)

LotR:O -- a few months when it first released, then again for a month when I took my most recent WoW break.
