Based on your answers, you are SEKA.
Breakdown:
Achiever 40.00%,
Explorer 53.33%,
Killer 53.33%,
Socializer 53.33%
SEKA players are usually very interested in the the 'total experience' of a virtual world--meeting other people and finding the unique places within it. They don't care much for PVP or levelling, but meeting up with online friends to see new parts of the world is usually fun and exciting.
A bit hard to answer some of the questions as a wiz. I thought back to my mortal days for inspiration.

Hmm. I don't think I'm too suprised. Thought I might be more of a socialiser and less of an explorer though. Interesting test.

Second run through, 11 days later.
Based on your answers, you are KAES.
Breakdown: Achiever 46.67%, Explorer 40.00%, Killer 100.00%, Socializer 13.33%
KAES players tends to enjoy the PVP aspect most of all, but also likes to pit themself against all the challenges of the PVE environment as well--although the latter is often a means to an end. This type of player will often enjoy PVP that focuses on their skill as an individual contributor (duels, and so forth) more than team-based PVP.
Bugger me, I'm getting worse.
And here I thought I was just a nice tearoomer!

Breakdown: Achiever 73.33%, Explorer 40.00%, Killer 66.67%, Socializer 20.00%
AKES players like to be the best-of-the-best at everything the game has to offer. They like to be high on the ladders of whatever metrics the game uses, including PVP. They like the best gear, the most power, and they love being the 'first' at something. Their prowess in PVP is generally supported by a large degree of understanding and posession of the best equipment and skills.
Hmmm

EASK players often live by the phrase 'The journey is often more enjoyable than the destination.' They are motivated by meeting the challenges of the world, but they are usually in no rush--because seeing the creatures and places of the world is even more fun.

A lot of the questions were inappropriate for MUD though. I think there's a version of the Bartle test that wasn't modified for MMORPGs
