I'll start the Ball rolling by introducing myself

Hi all, it’s great to be here with you ...hmm, well I love to read a lot and that in turn ends in my writing a lot. And I love music, do some amateur astronomy when the sky is clear and the stars do shine. Love adventures and Ryzom happens to be the beginning of one, so I love MMOs…in particular this one.

I live in Patras, which is a lovely port city in Greece on the north of the Peloponnese, when time permits I do some mountain climbing, or if it’s too wet I’m off to the movies.

[Eshin]

Name's Eshin and I'm about to be a full-time Ryzom addict (beta testing doesn't count ;P)

Been playing Ryzom since last May during the open beta, during open weekends after that and finally in FBT, plus during this last open beta. Put that any way you want it, it's enough to make someone addicted (most cunning, yes sir).

I'm currently unemployed and my hobbies are music, computers and coffee (accompanied by plethora of other vices).

Location is Finland and it's raining outside. That's about it.

Hi everyone,

My name is Ian, I live in Blackburn, Lancashire, in NW England.
I work as a Welder... building big trucks.
I also love music, my favourites being Counting Crows, Jewel, Evanescance, Seether to name a few.
My other interests are Digital Photography, miniature painting .. from Rackhams Confrontation range.. though i`m not a gamer, i just paint, as it is very relaxing.

Computers... hmm i couldn`t live without mine hehehe .. i love PC games, including Gothic II, Morrowind, Knights of The Old Republic, and Neocron.. been playing Neocron (MMOG) for almost 19 months now, and although i still think the game is absolutely brilliant and eargerly awaiting the Dome of York, i`m beginning to want to play more Online games... like Ryzom

Still not in-game yet... but hope to be soon...

Thats all for now... Seether

[ukcolinr]

My names Colin, or Xiao in game

I am currently living in Wolverhampton working in an IT Support role for a year, to fulfil the placement part of my degree. I am a student at Staffordshire University in Stafford, however I am originally from Warminster in Wiltshire

My first entry into the MMORPG world was Asheron's Call 1, which I played for probably 4 years, starting with Beta 2, and in which I volunteered as an Advocate in game, similar to what our guides do in Ryzom. I also had a go with Dark Age of Camelot, Asheron's Call 2 and Horizons, but Ryzom is the first game since AC1 that has really got me hooked

My main hobby other than the Internet and Gaming would be visiting theme parks to Ride coasters, and all things Disney, including their theme parks I regularly visit Disneyland Resort Paris, and for anyone whose interest, my Favourite Steel coaster is Nemesis at Alton Towers, my favourite Wooden coaster is Megafobia at Oakwood in Pembrokeshire, Wales (You must be dead proud Daedalus lol) but my fave park would have to be Disneyland Paris

I think thats about it from me See you in Game

[tecapio]

Hi I am TeCapio, another Senior Guide in the European English community (Arispotle server) here in Ryzom.

I live in the UK but I have travelled for most of my life (its a lot of travel and its a lot of years )

Previous/Current online games played include: UO, EQ, Eve Online, ATITD2, plus I am sure hundreds of stand alone/LAN games.

My hobbies are: PC's, online gaming, writing, photography and taking holidays.

And just for the record the first person (I think) to log onto Arispotle after release

[ttam]

Hey, I am ttam aka Giram, a member of the Euro-English Community.

I'm 21 and live in London, England. Have done all my life, except a short excursion to the US for a few months after my A-Levels and a few years at Uni down in kent.

Started out in online gaming with QuakeWorld... then I found Starsiege: Tribes and I've been hooked ever since. Moving onto Tribes 2 when it came out and now Tribes: Vengeance. On the MMORPG side I've been playing UO for 4 years on one of the many "free shards", then Ryzom caught my eye. Spent the past 7 months playing Ryzom.

On the single player side of things I started out with clogger back in the day Then later came Doom. After that I moved more onto RPGs like Baldurs Gate and Planescape (Black Isle rocks) and a little bit of Morrowind.

My hobbies include Online gaming and game management (I run various "tribes" and a few tournaments etc.) which takes up most of my time. Other time I spend going out with friends (Bowling (which I suck at ), Movies, Pubs, etc) and of course I enjoy both playing Ryzom. I used to be into model planes n cars n stuff (the ones with actual IC engines in them) but my interest in that has waned somewhat over the years.

Now there's music, in which I am an avid fan of Iron Maiden. Various other bands I listen to though are: Motorhead, Metallica, Nightwish, Wierd Al (so funny sometimes), ACDC, Aerosmith, Gamma Ray, Guns n' Roses, Megadeth, Mike Oldfield, Ozzy, Queensryche, Nickelback, Queen, Rhapsody, Manowar, Skid Row, Savatage. And of course Pink Floyd who were suggested to me by a BT engineer over a cup of tea.

And, er, well... I like to make things explode *hugs lvl 220 mage*

That's about it
