as old time lurker, i think i might add something...
I think we all know it takes a lot of time to create new content for any game. And the devs need to be payed those weeks to create it, and Ryzom isnt the gold mine we hope it would be.
As the devs asked help with a couple of things earlier already, i am surprised they havent asked us to help make content, something I suggested before.
Ryzom has a great tool to make content, called the Ryzom Ring. Ok. It certainly has it´s flaws, but it still can be used to create very nice things.
I already started a scenario about the lore once, although I never finished it.
What I would suggest is lore-related scenario's (for example the rainbow gates that Tryton made to help the refugees escape the Kitin, or some background about Loria of the Lakes, etc.)
Don't host it at a Ryzom Ring, but at Loremaster, hosted by Winch Gate, 24h a day. Finishing it the first time gives an amount of xp, and maybe some goodies, depending on the level of the scenario.
The only thing the devs have to do then, is host it, make sure the part of the goodies and xp works and, not unimportant, ask the scenario builders to make a couple of scenarios. (And maybe, on a rainy day, fix some things in the ring.)
No, the ring builders wont be able to create content as fast as you want it to, but you might see some very nice scenarios and learn very nice lore at the same time...
(I know there are 4 or 5 very good ring builders around on the english shard, Marelli, Arcueid, Sweetmarie, *cough* me *cough* and maybe some who I am forgetting now (sorry
))
