Game where tradeskills matter as much as in Runescape.

GRunyon

Hey guys.

I'm looking for a game where you don't just get maxed out in a month of play and do "end game content" from expansion to expansion. I miss the days of spending all afternoon mining coal and adamantite in Runescape and crafting stuff and then in turn actually being able to sell it. Sure, WoW has crafting... but in an afternoon with a few thousand gold you can max the skill out and craft yourself something that you're probably not even going to ever use. Sure the crafted stuff in Runescape wasn't the best but it would take you so long to get the best of the best stuff that it is still used quite a bit. Crafting in Runescape mattered. I would spend 90% of my time running around crafting and making stuff that was actually useful and used in the game if not by me but by other people in the game. Is there anything else like this out there?

Also, please no dead MMOs. I don't want to play something that's on the brink of extinction. I want to play something that'll be around.
