Ryzom

It looks like Nevrax is gone as a company. My guess is that they have a lot of debt, and the plan to have new players coming on fast enough to pay the debt off did not work. I am not sure about French law, but normally the Court appoints a Master who tries to figure out what to do:

1) sell the company assets, and pay off creditors

2) make a plan that satisfies the creditors (this is what probably just didn't work)

3) find a buyer that can plunk money down, and use that money to pay off the creditors. The new buyer does not have the debt load anymore.

I think #2 above was what they tried a few months ago, and it didn't work. So either #1 or #3 are left. Let us hope that #3 comes true, and the buyers don't want to change the game into another WoW.

Yeah, echo that.

How about we start thinking up questions for the poor sods to answer when they've sorted everything out and give them a big Ryzom Welcome.

Heres a couple...

Why do you want Ryzom?
Have you noticed the community here is different to most other MMOs are so will treat us well?
Are there any major changes you'd like to introduce?

Are you sticking with Jolt? (Hosting/CSR)
Are you adding to, taking away from or dropping the whole current Dev team?
Do you have money to burn?

Are you going to merge the servers?
If you do, how will we sort out OPs?

Hum.. geez, I hope GMs and the dev/design team will stay though: I really like what they've done here.

Good luck to all Nevrax employees.

*grits teeth*
*battens down hatches*

Hold on guys it might get a bit bumpy here...

*crosses fingers*

Oh no you didn't! You wanna start him off again or what?

The end or new begining
guess we have to wait until the new owners show up to find out.

**crosses everything**

Just remember to tell them you don't have a favorite Michael Bolton song. You celebrate his entire catalogue.

Ooh, uh, yeah. I'm going to have to go ahead and sort of disagree with
you there. Yeah. Uh, he's been real flaky lately and I'm not sure that
he's the caliber person you want for upper management. He's been having
some problems with his TPS reports.



at this point, we don't really know whats going to happen. Its either the end of the game or breathing new life into it.

Think they'd just have to answer one of these questions to answer both

Well ofcourse, they prolly don't even know the answer to half of our questions yet but they're gunna have to think about it at some point and come out with some details. While we're waiting we can think up some questions for them to answer hehe.

Edit: Heres another,

What exp do you have with previous games? (if any)
