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!

Uhm sorry, you misinterpreted me there.
I´m all for seeing some facts and such.
But I never stopped promoting, wouldn´t make much sense for me to create new Videos then, wouldn´t it?
Naw, I´ve only come to tell people about the game with a bit of salt in the mixture.
"You may test it now for free, but beware that it may be going down someday again, like all games do. It has risen from the dead two times now, that must mean something IS good in it, but its simply not for everyones taste and all I can tell you is try for yourself. - And maybe you´ll even help it not to go down once more

"
See, its that easy.
And of course I tell them its a GREAT game!
And besides I actually refrain from voting more than once on MMORPG.com, especially by creating an alt for that purpose only, thats quite dishonest in my book.

It is dishonest I agree. But if that's what's needed to get more people into this wonderful game i don't really care... It's not about ends justifying the means really it's just that there's no way for a special game like ryzom were yubos don't drop swords and all to make it up there...

And you do send that message, but not quite the way you intend. The message you end up sending is "Ryzom players know they need to cheat to hype their game because it's no good". We all know that isn't correct, but the outside observers do not.

What do outside observers know about who exactly voted and how?
With all due respect that seems a bit far-fetched...
While we are certainly free to discuss certain moral scurples in these forums it does not need to be reflected anywhere else...
Basicly we all want the same - not to have a third bankruptcy on our hands...

I think people cant let anything "slip" around here

. The whole vote thing was rather childish, well intended and no harm done. Calling that dishonest is harsh, bordering on rude, and all the moral discussion is basically much ado about nothing.

They may be watching this forum. Some people scout a game's forum before they play.
Some people might be dumb enough to cheat and then post about it on external websites, i.e. MMORPG.com itself. One never knows.
