I played Severian, among others, and was later the GM known as Sloth.
LoFP was a superior vehicle for role-playing, which pretty much doesn't exist in the one graphic MMORPG I've spent a lot of time in (Shadowbane).
I have fond memories of being helped as a clueless newbie by Ferumbras, of winning my first duel against Gorma with only a few points of health to spare, of many fun fights with Prophet, Elminster, and other, of hours spent rolling Rollers with Tomas, and of the generally good group of people who played the game.
It consumed many hours and led to good things.
The graphic MMORPG world still hasn't caught up.

As the former player of Linneaus I must say that LOFP served as a catalyst for me on a number of levels. The game helped me move from passive experiences to living a more adventurous lifestyle.
I currently live in Egypt and travel around the world for the State Department. While not quite the same thing as teleporting around, casting wild magic with horrific if entertaining results, and encouraging GM hunts, I can't complain of being bored.
I did try and help with a public game Echoes of Future Past for awhile but somehow it just wasn't the same - although we did try and keep up the flavor of the original LOFP.

Being a GM added to the fun as you were basically doubling the amount of information you were getting on the screen because of the Reports, Player Whispers, etc.
Speaking of Report, imagine if you could do that in one of today's games?

Awe yeah. I liked to set my window narrow like a newspaper column for fast readage.
