Why Java?
According to your post java3d is new to you. So why not pick an engine with similarities when it comes to programming but an easier solution to work with?
Tools like Unity3d or Shiva?
You would have better luck asking around at forums dedicated to independent game development. I would learn as much as you can by lurking around first though, as many developers are impatient with posters who ask generalized questions about the fundamentals of game design.
First, you'll need tools:
www.lwjgl.org/
Next, you need some background:
muddev.wishes.net/viewforum.php
But most importantly, MAKE A GAME FIRST!!!!
If you haven't so much as made a working version of Tetris or Space Invaders then you are ABSOLUTELY no position to begin working on an MMORPG of any sort. Actually, since you want to make online games, you should make an network version of Pong or SpaceWar!. Know how to make games first. Know how to make networked games next. Try to worm you way into an admin position on a MUD, than and only then will you be ready to approach an MMORPG project.
where we learn these skills?
Perfect reply. Was going to point out some API's for him, and then that he should start with smaller concept games.
