This server cannot support a massive base of users, in fact it probably cannot even support more than 64 users at once logged into it. This fact means that, in my opinion, it doesn't qualify as a MMO.
What about the 'secure' D2 games that were actually hosted on battle.net? Do they mean D2 was a MMOG?
