Well like title says last night when i came home and put on television I was greeted by Ryzom on television. It was on national television in a program about addictions, yes you hear right was about game addictions. It was a guy talking that had been addicted to ryzom some time ago for a couple of years, his name was Kyndra or Kalyndra or something like that ingame, it was a female tryker toon with light-green bold hair style. He now does readings in schools all over the country about how bad mmo's are for ppl.

ps. I only saw the last part of it so i might have missed alot off the interview
ps. For belgians that want to rewatch it with "ooit gemist": http://programmas.canvas.be/te-gek/te-gek-aflevering-1-identiteit /

Well that's a nice way to earn money from playing a good game :)
I bet people addicted to WoW won't go lecturing much...

Any kind of mention is good - but I wonder what did he say about "why Ryzom" was his addiction of choice.

Just 2-years, though... Bah there are many of us who have been stuck here for 7 or more.

from what i got, like i said only saw last part of it, he said when he started to play he really felt part of the game and it pulled him in. He got the feeling when playing he made a real difference in the game and stuff => guess it's the great community feeling of ryzom we have to think for that.

I'm not 100% sure they ever said the name ryzom only the video of him playing was ryzom and his toon he explained was ryzom

Ryzom addictive? It is just a matter of balancing your life, if you can't than anything can take it over.

I am sad to see that he thinks this way, I thought he was leaving for health reasons.

i turned on right at the moment he said his name I didn't know it was about ryzom at the moment so didn't pay that much attention (expected a wow screen or movie, since that's the only mmo most know around here).
Good chance it was Kyerna or something aswell. He had name/guild/title ... turned off during the movie so i couldn't see his name only that is was a bold (light green) tryker and i do think i saw him pvp tagged as tryker (but that can just have been a new f2p toon aswell i guess, didn't show any fighting just him running around with amps on)

Can't be Kyerna, he was addicted for far more than 2 years...
Plus he loved Ryzom with a passion and was a cool roleplayer.

Kyerna popped back a few months ago so I doubt he would be on a tour telling the evils of gaming addiction.-Kil

name sounded a bit like that and i checked to see if i can replay it but seems it's the only show on tv that night that we can't rewatch all other shows we can rewatch (with a small fee, but not that one)

I remember a char named Kyralandra in Monks of Polonius. Maybe this person?
