Ring : ATS testers in the Ring Alpha by Marjo
Today is a great day in the history of the Ring! After lots of testing with the first waves of Alpha testers, opening to all the CSRs then to 40 lucky players, we now need even more players for testing on a larger scale.
We already gave access this week to 40 more active players and also to those who added their names to our list at the GC Leipzig. But today, with the opening of the Alpha to our 589 ATS (Advanced Test Server) testers, we're crossing another key point as it's the first time we'll welcome so many people on the Ring.
On September 1, it clearly states that they are opening the ALPHA to more testers.

Ring : Opening of Ryzom Ring Beta by Marjo
A special week is starting for Ryzom, it's birthday week! As you may already know, two years ago on the 16th of September, Ryzom went live and the first Homins could breath and run on Atys... But today is even more special as it also brings a very good and long awaited news: the opening of the Ryzom Ring Beta!
The Beta is reserved to our players who have a paying Ryzom account.
On September 11th, they clearly say they are opening the Beta. They clearly state that beta is for paying customers only. This is the day beta started.

as was already said: they had an internal alpha with players testing for almost a full year now. then they let more players in by allowing all ATS players in. as nothing exploded they are now letting normal players in as well for the beta...
what is so hard to grasp on this or so horrible a thing to do?
