I played LOTRO for a month or so with ISBoxer. I found it quite difficult to box as the macro system is very minimal.
But if you are at all interested in the books it has the best atmosphere/storyline of any MMO.

I played EQ2 for years, it was a great game but I have just played it way too much.

What about Runes of Magic?
I only played it a couple of times but seems like a decent WoW clone.
