I like to help out others and I like to explore. The very poor crafting in this game is what will eventually drive me away. A good crafting system lets you help other players and interact strongly with the world. Horizons almost got my money, despite all its other issues, just because of the crafting system.
I have a little achiever in me too, but the quests are structured very well to satisfy that. All those little mini goals that I can get done. With my L60, most of the fun is from just helping other people get things they need to get done. I want better gear and stuff for myself but the main drive behind that is so that I can help other people more. In some cases I've pushed myself to do things that I really didn't care about just so I would be able to see new content as well.
I would say I'm mostly here for the social, then explorer, then achiever. I play tons of alts to explore different aspects of the game as well. Until for some silly reason my brain wouldn't let me play horde anymore, I had as many and as big, horde as I did alliance. I was on PvP, PvE, and RP servers, and my mood and whims directed what character on what server type I was going to play at the time. I miss some of that now that I can't play my horde and now that I would rather drop what I'm doing to help others. Hopefully I can get back to that at some point.

It's all just zeroes and ones and duct tape in the end.
