Hello, I'm a 21 year old named Evan from the United States majoring in computer science with a concentration in computer engineering, currently as a junior. Due to my schooling, I am knowledgeable about many things in and outside the realm of just Conquer Online programming. I only got serious about programming a year ago, but I put ridiculous amounts of time into it and my skills improve exponentially as time goes by. My MSN is [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...].
I decided to apply because the section only has one moderator (though he's doing a great job) and from a few people urging me to apply. This is the forum I've been the most active on, ever, since I was 14.
I've been "playing" Conquer Online for 8 years (started roughly in September 2004), with lapses. I no longer play; I quit for good last year, but I still keep fairly up to date with the new additions. I'm extremely knowledgeable about the game - when I played, I was obsessed (to the point that it is the only MMO I've played seriously). I know a LOT about the intricacies such as the official design and implementation, since I'm developing a 1.0 source with Korvacs for a private server called Love2Hate, and we use the Eudemons source as a reference for it, which I'd estimate to be 90% similar to the 4217 Conquer servers (I think EO was built off of this version).
I have no experience as a moderator for a serious forum such as this one, but I know, and am able to perform, what is required to be a moderator. Though I can be biased (who isn't?), I'll separate my bias from my moderating responsibilities. I realize that there are a few people in the section who are more qualified than me - however, none of them are interested in applying and I feel that I'm the next most qualified.
Thanks for reading and in advance for the consideration!
