Erm, there are many indie MMOG developers. Off the top of my head:

  Simutronics (Dragonrealms and Gemstone IV)
  Iron Realms Entertainment (Achaea, Aetolia, Imperian)
  Sulake (Habbo Hotel)
  Linden Labs (Second Life)
  eGenesis (A Tale in the Desert)
  Three Rings (Puzzle Pirates)
  Intent Software (Astonia III)
  Magique Productions (Caeron 3000)
  Dragon's Eye Productions (Furcadia)
  Elysian Productions (Ages of Aithiria)
