I'd love to join as either the earthbender or the weapons master, assuming nobody else has immediate plans on taking them :o

Might be active again soon™. Bio/etc definitely needs a lot of TLC.

About Me
I am a second year undergraduate student at the Rochester Institute of Technology which, as the name would suggest, is in Rochester, New York. I am studying Software Engineering – essentially, programming plus all of the processes, paperwork, etc. that I'll be doing in the real world. I have been programming in some capacity since I was eight, and once I discovered programming I simply never stopped writing code. Some of that code I've written was for this very website, and hopefully there will be a fair bit more of that in the near future.
I discovered programming in a game called ROBLOX, and coincidentally that is also where I first discovered roleplaying. One day I was exploring the forums, and noticed a roleplaying section. Curious, I took a look and I was instantly hooked. The content was mostly in the Free RP level, with a small amount of Casual tier games, but at the time even that was high quality content to me. Over the years my interest in the game faded, and although I continued programming after ultimately leaving the community, I did not continue roleplaying.
Years later, I gradually started wanting to get back into roleplaying. I began googling around, and after looking at a few different websites I finally decided that the Guild seemed to be the best of them all. I made an account on December 13, 2014, and started jumping into some games; I quickly decided on sticking to mostly High Casual, but eventually moved more towards Advanced as I realized that most of the games I was in were easily at that level anyway. This was right around the time that Mahz was working on rebuilding the website from the ground up, and after chatting with him for a while in the IRC during some site downtime I decided that I wanted to help.
I ultimately didn't contribute too much, but nevertheless I was the first (and so far, only) non-anonymous user to help Mahz with developing the website. As a reward, after he implemented the trophy system I was awarded the special Benevolent Cyberpunk trophy, which gives me a special userbit that looks like this:
After roughly a year and a half of being here, life started getting in the way more and more, and my activity became increasingly infrequent. Eventually, a little after the two year mark, I became completely inactive; I was in my senior year of high school, neck deep in college plans, and didn't have time for it anymore. I'd log in every now and then to check if I had missed anything, but until quite recently never stayed. I am back now, though, and hopefully I'm here to stay. I plan on getting back into roleplaying in the near future, and I also plan on starting to help out with the website once more. I've learned so much since when I first saw the code running the Guild, and hopefully I'll be significantly more helpful than I was back then!

Thanks! If you'd like to use the idea in any way then you can feel free, but I'm not really interested in it anymore.

@hiddenleafguy You just necro'd a 3 month old post 
Sorry to say that the RP went under, I got busy with that pesky life thing and I lost interest in it simultaneously. I appreciate your interest, though.

or he's running with a huge drug gang and uses his mexican coke money to fund the website, spending large portions of the year covering his tracks.
Way to blow his cover! Now the cops are going to be after him
And his gang will be after you. Better hope the cops get them before they get you
@Ellri Wasn't aware. Will let him know.
@LegendBegins What crashing issues?
@Caits Works fine for me, so it's probably something on your end. No idea what it could be, though. Do you know when it started happening?

Luther/Kyle post is finally up. Hopefully won't take so long to get things done any more, with school ending tomorrow \o/
@Ellri Then pester Mahz's e-mail as much as you like!
...More seriously, I guess making a list of things that aren't significant enough to trouble him with while he is working wouldn't be a bad idea?

@Hank Yeah, I think I'm the only one that has been in contact with him at all, for the most part. Besides you doing so now, of course.
Just a heads up to you guys, if anything else in the future happens while Mahz is away, emailing him won't work; I told him about what you guys suspected was a DDoS and that was the first he'd heard of it so presumably he either hasn't been checking his email at all, or does so infrequently. He said he pretty much depends on me for guild news at the moment, so I guess it's safe to say that no other way of contacting him will work at this point. So I guess just bring up anything important that happens here, and I'll make sure he knows about it?
