What MMOtivates You?
Richard Bartle defined the four primary gaming types as Achievers,
Explorers, Socializers, and Killers? Our weekly poll asks the question:

how you play it; so tell us what makes you tick!
Achievers are motivated
by their in-game goals. These are the players who want to quickly move
to the top of the food chain and earn both levels and loot. The
Achiever is the person who always has the best gear at raids, or the
one who insists on clawing his way to max level faster than everyone
else
