Games like Neverwinter Nights or Lord of the Rings Online do A LOT to create a roleplaying environment, and your rigid and stubborn insistence on pure text is something you will have to accept as purely subjective, if you want to understand where other players are coming from.
[ Disclamier: Please don't take this too seriously… last time I wrote this with irony some people ended up taking it dead seriously ]
Do a lot? Well we simply have different expectations I guess…. simple minded people need simple role-playing mechanics more intelligent and imaginative people need more freedom and quality to consider it worthwhile

Here is an example of what actually could have been done in a graphics MMORPG if there was any of sufficient quality….. worth to note is that all this happen within the game mechanics.. so it was not just a bunch of made up text all was ruled by the control system of the game. Traveled in camouflage from the desert across the mountain to setup a camp in a unpopulated area. Created a camp full of tents, supplies and other stuff. Sent spies into the city to get information about defenses and other things. Unfortunately the opposition managed to infiltrate one of the camp leaders dreams to find out some information about the plan. When arriving to take the city in massive numbers we were met by several powerful mages who managed to defend the city. However one beautiful and charming man from the army had managed to make the queen of the city pregnant… and so as the child was born it continued to be a secret spy for what was left of the clan. Finally the city was being controlled by the child as the mother and father in law died in a tragic "accident" on the practice grounds.
Now tell me which graphical MMORPG this can / could have happend in?
