Greets!
Greets All!
I'm a long time MMORPGer, who played EQ1 starting in Beta Phase 4, and was a guild leader for over 7 years there. I had left EQ1 and tried World of Warcraft, played DAoC, then onto EQ2, as well as so many other MMORPGs. But I really loved the world of Telon and the game play Vanguard Saga of Heroes had to offer. My wife and I both played from beta, through launch (and all the bugs), up to the sunset of the game. Yeah, I occasionally took some time off away from the game to pursue other things, like education and work but I always knew I could come back to let off some steam , explore , and make new friends in the game. At least up to the sunset of the game. Since that day, I haven't really found a new MMORPG to satiate myself the way Vanguard always did. So here I am.
Away from gaming, I am a senior developer/team lead/tech adviser/project manager, mostly developing whatever I am under contract to develop or lead a team through the different phases of project implementation. I have over 20 years of experience in a wide gamut of technologies and disciplines. This includes much of the .NET world. I won't bore everyone with the 8 page skill set list.
As far as VGOEmulator.net goes, I am new here. I'm slowly reading posts and discovering how the project has progressed. I installed TortoiseSVN and have imported the repository. I plan to spend some time getting the current code functioning on one of my home servers and discovering how everything was built so far.
I look forward to seeing Vanguard return again! And I hope to see you all soon in-game!

Johnny,
We are always happy to get more help! If he hasn't already, I'm sure the project lead, John Adams, will contact you shortly.

Welcome, JohnnyT2K.
Your resume' sounds like someone finally cloned me, only I'll bet you are a nicer guy Shoot me a PM with your areas of interest specific to VGOEmulator (core services, features, DB/content, scripting, etc) and we'll get you set up.

Glad to meet you, John. I'll definitely PM you once I get up to speed on the project. It's the holidays and I have two days of work left before I get my 4 days off over Thanksgiving. I plan to use some of that time off to read up, do some code review, and set things up here so I have a working development environment and a separate test environment. I also have my own team of testers (my wife and two oldest boys, who grew up loving MMORPG games because of my influence) Look for that PM a few days after the Thanksgiving holiday is over. I'd hate to use up any of your time or resources before I have at least a working understanding of the server code.
Everyone, thanks for all the warm welcomes. I hope to be of use to the team.
Cheers!
