I'd say Everquest pre-4th expansion. That's harsh stuff right there.
MapleStory is just (if not more) ridiculous, due to boredom setting in easily and requiring insane amounts of xp to level up.
WOW has nothing on these days, wow is actually tolerable for me.

Any MMORPG I've played. Almost all MMORPG's are just one huge experience grind.

Typically, any MMORPG, but Maple Story was the worst by far.

Any MMO ...and getting a Magikarp to turn into a Gyrados = horrible.

A man, chasing me with scissors. Absolutely terrifying. Not fun at all. But you're talking about experience "grinding," so I guess I take that back. Or something.

Quoted for truth. My big one personally was Runescape and GE Wars (two free ones). They were both just a huge grind, as with most MMOs and some RPG games.

Edit: I take that back. Now that I think of it, Pokemon really was a grind. I just didn't really think of it that way back then.

Play Granado Espada (aka Sword of the New World) and tell me WoW is a grind, lol.  Hate WoW to begin with but GE is BAD.

Maplestory was awful. I never really got too far in that game.

Lineage 2 Pre-Chaotic Throne. I've played a ton of MMO's and been in a lot of bad grinds before, but to me that one was the worst.

Ys: The Ark of Napishtim, I had to level up just so I can damage the Boss. And FFTA, I trained my Archer from Lv.16 to Lv.40 in one match which took a really long  time.
