I just had a dream where there was a MMORPG of sorts with a sort of guild-based morality/ethics system, like if Dark Souls had player created covenants.
Players could select a covenant or create their own and each one could be created with different rules/protections/roles/advancement systems/etc.
Biggest reason to join a covenant was to prevent possibly being enslaved to a higher level player (unless the covenant allowed that). Players could join one right away upon character creation so it wasn't hard get protection.
Covenants could be setup many many ways, some might have have a strict hierarchy and lots of roles and special roles, while others could have have no rules/ranks/roles at all so it was very flexible.
The dream it's self involved lots of shenanigans involving clueless new players, slaves (willing and not) and some naughty stuff, but I mostly only remember the covenants bit.

(I'm amused by the smallest things)
I'll be honest about all this, it sounds like an interesting hub of ideas, but would it turn into a playable, and likable game? Dunno.-

Some of the features need some problem solving in a few ways. Any large mmo world where players can directly impact the map(s) without instancing in place, is a cluster-fuck nightmare on an amateur, thread fiber budget. Now let's say by chance that problem is fixable. We all know newbs will build and abandon trash all over the place, trolls will come by in the middle of the night and find a way to ruin the area around the project you're spending large amounts of cash on (the concept is that you can buy ?x? lots of land to build on, so there is some protection against build vandalism in the concept), and kids will create giant phallic symbols, or mock-creates using cheap, minecraft'ish objects.
They are the main problems, and the 2nd one can fixed with the ability to report lots, and moderation to remove obstructions and obscenities. It's a tough problem but that's the breaks when tackling big ideas.

@That One NPC You are reminding me of Second Life. And Second Life is... well... yeah a cluster-fuck nightmare at it's worst sure, but parts of it are nice! It's hardly an MMORPG though. MMO certainly, RPG not so much.
@PhoenixSoul ... I have no idea what typo you mean.

Edit: ... Wait why did I share that again?

Well, I may be working on making an actually in progress thread for my game. It's one of those things I wanna do but keep putting off.

It's really a different type of thing I think, blogs being better for updates and side information and a thread being better for getting people interested in the game.
Also, might release an official demo thing soon. Maybe. I think enough features are done where it's probably worth it, but I still have lots of stuff I wanna change and features I wanna add. Though I am at the point where most of what I want to do in the future is increasingly more difficult.
