Ryzom

sounds like a good idea to me

And turns out I can't, due to firewall incompatibilities. And I'm not talking my personal firewall, but campus firewall something-or-other to prevent p2p usage.

This is Neme-****ing-sis (pardon my French)

And it turns out those Nevrax guys are really nice and give me a complete refund. If this whole thing could be likened to a greek tragedy, they would be the deus ex machina. Thanks to them, and thanks alot to you guys for helping me out, that was great. I still want to play the game, but it can't be as long as I live here, unless I figure something out with the ISP. And by then I think I'll just buy the game in a store to avoid all this. Big thanks to you all for helping me again, you've made sure I didn't become an angry Ryzom-hater.
