I have an account there but can't vote due to insufficient ranking... bleh. :(

EDIT: As to "why hype the game now while we don't know about its future?"

1) Are you a medium ? Neither am I, and I'm sure people at Spiderweb are no mediums either. We can speculate all we want, no one can predict/foretell the future of a game... otherwise I sure as hell wouldn't have bought AoC's collector edition. *still feels disgusted about it* (though, unlike Funcom, the new owners have been way better at keeping up to their promises since we first heard from them.)

2) Why hype the game now ? Well because it's the best time to get some people to try an unlimited version of the game we love, and if we don't want it to go down the drain again, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS TOO MUCH MARKETING !

agreed Karm *sighs*. Also noticed alot of guilds pimps especially in the lakelands. In the time it took to run to the GH and back once, I noticed 3 homins that were guildless before have been ninja recruited!

So have to ask, how much of the help you give is for actual help and how much is for attempted lures for power? :mad:

*had an alt, was offered 5 invites in 3 days all refused*

sorry theres propbably a better way of wording what i want to say...

Wow, you can give them their beloved game back, but you can't force them to be happy, can you?

Also in agreence with Karm. We need to figure out what is going on with the game before we promote it and get tons of people in. If the game fails again we stand no chance of brining it back if we over promote the game.

I don't see the issue about tempting people to a game which future is not clear yet coz thats somehow the point about future isn't it? (who says that AoC will survive or develop in a way anyone wants?)

If long standing players like Acridiel from Leanon stop promoting the game with their friends I think it will become quite hard for Ryzom. Cause what sign do you give when even the biggest fans tell their friends: "You rather wait a little coz who knows how long its gonna survive this time" With that attitude it will be indeed hard to make the game surviving.

Or do you tell your friends: "Dunno bout this eve, it could be that its not gonna be such a great party or it even stops early. You rather stay home and watch TV."

Although I didn't enjoy AoC very much I would not just say the time I spent there was wasted just because I won't play anymore.

So, how can anyone say time was wasted when he actually enjoyed the time? oO

And yes, I'm honest promoting the game by saying: I love it!
