Try some SciFi MMORPG for a change. There are really tons of them out there.
Some with notable success, like Eve Online or Anarchy Online.
About MMORPG sucking all your life: this is actually not news, everything you do in your entire life requires time management. That includes entertainment. If you fail to manage it, all sorts of really bad results can come, ofc.
At the core, the question is: do you really need to be number one? If yes, expect a huge effort to be required if you want to succeed.
Oh, unless you are still dreaming that you can reap big rewards with no or close to no efforts at all.
People as a race need conflict, need war. We are not beautiful and gentle angels, we are rising beasts trying to rip each other necks.
If you try to deny this and try to stop war completely, humans will find a way to do it. It's better to do war in controlled conditions than leaving the probably most important aspect of the human race at the will of random.
Maybe we need an Aergistal (The Overlords of War by Gerard Klein). Care to implement it?:)
RoR sucks so badly, that actually needs these kind of cheap troll articles to advertise it.
Sorry guys, but a programming language is designed to implement solutions, not just make the coder feel good (for 1-2 days). Learning curve is completely unacceptable. If you want to feel "special", go have fun coding in Ruby. But if you want to produce a big scale software solution, go use a proved language/software platform, like Java EE or.NET.
Saying that "you need to be smarter to understand it" is actually an argument against RoR.

If you carefully study all the awesome pictures, one may realize that this must be the most boring planet. Ever.
