Could I talk to someone in marketing then?

Because I would really like Ryzom to succeed, but I am not at all sure "the devs" are who should be judge and jury in this. To succeed Ryzom needs a larger playerbase than it was able to scare up with it's approach so far. Here are two suggestions before I start work for the day:
1. Put in another universe channel for random stoopidness. I know, I know, I know, but if you do it, then turn yours off it will be like it never existed, and I promise you it addresses a real issue that will only get worse of you don't.
2. Re-write the Lore. Oh My Good, did you run it through Polysyllabic's Patented Translation Engine with the Inkhorn Maxification Plugin? I am no enemy of pollysyllabisms, but the choices made, together with the random hiccups of dialect speech, leave it a collection of great ideas and great development in dire need of an editor.
I am reading it to my son and at the end of nearly every line the voice of Kingsley Amis chants "Recast the sentence!". Nobody, and I mean even *me* talks like that or ever did.
ta!
