Dear Players,

In this last year, we have rolled out four patches. Now we are in September and it's time to get things rolling on the Ryzom front again. One of the areas that we will be working on is something you've all been asking for: Communication!

Yes, that's right. We still think actions speak louder than words, but now we're going to give you more words as well. We're going to keep you better informed of our thoughts, plans and actions and to make this possible and as dynamic as possible we have set up accounts on some social networking sites:
  • Facebook: Come join the Official Ryzom Group on Facebook.
  • Blog: You can now read the Official Ryzom Blog. We will communicate there exclusively in English for reasons of simplicity and speed, but please feel free to translate what we say there and post it on Facebook.
  • Twitter: Join us on Twitter. We will "tweet" in English, usually, but you are free to re-tweet in your language if you want.
It's also possible to come meet and talk to members of the Ryzom Team:

In Paris, France, we will be attending the Paris Game Festival on September 19th and 20th. We won't have an exhibit there but Ryzom CTO Vianney Lecroart (vl), as well as other members of the dev and CSR teams will be roaming around the festival laden with goodies. You can find more information about this event on the French forums.

In Bochum, Germany, on November 14th, one of Ryzom's biggest fans, Acridiel, will be organising an IRL. Leanon's Senior Game Master Boar will attend and bring some goodies with him. You can find more information about this IRL on the German forums.

Wednesday, 16 September is the 5th anniversary of Ryzom. So that we can spend pleasant time together in celebration, we will be running small fun events during the (European) evening.

Incredible ! o.o If that doesn't bring people back, I wonder what will. But Yeah, as much as communicating on blogs and Facebook looks all neat, incorporating those to the official website would be EVEN BETTER ! ;)

I have to agree with Sher. Seems I now have to register/join more sites. You used to be able to just check forums. While I commend the efforets to improve communication you have now spread info across fr more sites then I have time to monitor regularly.For the social networking gen this is prolly no biggie. For us older peeps it forces us to join sites we have avoided.

This is kinda nice.
I hope each of these will basically mirror each other. The Facebook has been there for a bit. I don't know about joining that, but I will be looking for some Tweets about really awesome updates. I hope those will be coming soon :)
