I thought WoW, RuneScape and the like pioneered online subscriptions?

They were not the first, either. But definitely the biggest in their day.

Ultima Online predates those too.

Everquest had a subscription. I think subscription models were common back then for being a member of a forum or getting a magazine or news letter.
