MMORPG With Biggest Player Base?

Hello,

Which MMORPG has the biggest subscriber/player base count? I heard RoM has 3 mil so far, but is it the most popular one/biggest?

Also does anyone know how big Allods player base is?

I consider a game in which you log in for like three minutes to replant and send a few items someone's way, to have a playerbase. I mean really. Might as well not even play the game.

I'd say RuneScape with over 150,000 players continously online.

Of which half is probly bots.

Not half but a lot. Runescape botting is business. Some of the top "sellers"(not websites, talking about 1-2 people) earn up to 1000$ a month. Although you have to invest too :p

Been there done that, too much of a hassle for me.

Not really. I logged in to check on my clan a few days ago, and the game was definitely empty for the most part.

Going by Minutes/Hours playing, that shows player activity and playerbase. Obviously a playerbase of 100 isn't going to have over 1 million minutes played...

Some people in PW will just log in for a half an hour for a dungeon run then log off, and I'll tell you what. That makes a lot of PW playerbase. Now I'm not denying that FW might have more players. I'm just saying most people that do play PW don't stay in all day, hell barely even two hours. It's usually only venders and bots that will stay on for massive amounts of time.
