I am a World of Warcraft veteran, having played since January 2007 (give or take a few breaks for several months). I have been very involved in the community ever since then through various outlets such as fan-based websites, data gathering, both fan and official forums, social media, etc.

I consider myself knowledgeable of many different aspects of the game, such as creature mechanics, spell dynamics, scripting, map architecture, database structuring, console variables, detailed DBC and MPQ modifications, various programming languages (VB, .NET, SQL, C#, C++, Java, Python), macros, and command-line functions. I have also done some work involving the API and LUA pertaining to addons. These days I find myself having as much fun testing limitations (both client and server side), conceptual boundaries, or general troubleshooting many video game aspects, including and aside from WoW, as I do actually playing the game an average person would. I have participated in a couple of betas and have attained large quantities of time and several contributions on the PTR as well.

Some of my main areas of editing here are pages that deal with the many aspects of what constitutes a spell and, basically, "what lets them do what they do" types. My favorite has been Attributes for a while because I enjoy testing various flags and combinations in a variety of configurations. I also find this one to be especially challenging, as well as being an absolute core to spells in general.

Other WoW work I have done includes moderating World of Warcraft Discord servers for Retail and TrinityCore, adding code and fixes via GitHub, and past programming work on the official addon Recount. I have also setup and managed private servers for mainly myself to learn from and a few friends to play around in: Classic (1.12), TBC (2.4.3), WotLK (3.3.5a), Cata (4.3.4), and I am currently on MoP (5.4.8). I will most likely try WoD (6.2.4a) and especially Legion (7.3.5) sometime in 2024. I am always happy to help in any way possible, especially with things such as video games that I'm very passionate about. If you have any questions or requests for me personally or would like to view my contributions on Wowhead (for whatever reason), I have left the links to do so.

Cheers!
