Nevrax released a note on Ryzom Ring official site that they have contacted several companies and/or individuals about taking over Ryzom. But now all is secret.

To keep you in the loop with what is happening in Paris here is the latest.

The situation here as you know is that Nevrax as a corporate entity will probably cease to exist in a few weeks. It is not up to Nevrax to decide the exact date, which is why we can?t be more specific right now. Discussions are ongoing with various creditors so you may see "news" stories appearing here and there about Nevrax going under, but you will still hear all the facts here first.

In the meantime, Ryzom will continue to run and evolve. Right now we are happy that several companies and/or individuals are actively engaged in negotiations to take over Ryzom. Again we can?t tell you more at this moment as these negotiations have to be carried out privately.

We?ve opened a thread in the account support section to answer your concerns regarding your account. Click here for more information.

Here is the more info about Ryzom?s account

As it was announced in Monday?s news, Nevrax is entering in a transition period.

To answer a few of your concerns regarding your account, here?s what?s going on:

If you were a subscriber before 3pm GMT yesterday Monday the 20th (you paid before this date), your account has been credited with one free month ("November 20 2006 - 1 month of free time period" in "account events" in your profile). This means that additionally to the period you chose to pay, you have one extra month.

If your character is still on Ruins of Silan, you can go to mainland and have access to the full game. If you are already on mainland, no particular restriction is added and you can keep doing what you were used to do.

You are on a Free Trial (you never paid to play). Your account will remain a Free Trial and you can?t subscribe and go to mainland for now. That is why we removed the level cap. If this cap ever comes back or that you can subscribe later, these levels above 21 shouldn?t disappear.

If you unsubscribed but your subscription period didn?t end before 3pm GMT yesterday, then your account has been credited with one free month.

You were once a subscriber and you subscription period ended before 3pm GMT yesterday (meaning you couldn?t play or post on the forums anymore with the concerned account), for now you can?t resubscribe. The only way for you to play Ryzom is by creating a Free Trial.

Even though we wish we could answer you to clarify the situation, many of your questions regarding your account can?t be answered simply because this is not our call anymore (such as when will the subscription be reopened, what will be the new costs...). These answers can only be given by a potential new company/owner of Ryzom, which is the only one able to take a decision on this point.
