Why do I want to moderate the Jade Dynasty section?

Put plain and simple, mainly the same reasons I originally applied 3 years ago. I love the section, I did (and have come back and plan to do) contribute to the section, and my contribution will only grow. I have already started helping with 13 class files behind the scenes, and amounted my knowledge back up to current.


What experience do I have developing Jade Dynasty?

To be honest, I have tried to contribute all of my knowledge through threads
and private messages between Veteran Developers to new developers alike.
I recently did a release of the 11 class server. That was probably my biggest
contribution to date.
I would never think of rating my knowledge, but I have been developing this game for
around 2 years now, and I would have to say I have acquired extensive knowledge
from some of the best developers around.

An editor release (full credits to Comper for tool, I just tinkered with offsets):

UPDATE 2015: I have recouped my knowledge and brought it back up to date with current releases.


What would I contribute by being moderator?

I would push to see more contribution back in the section, such as updated tools, bug finds and fixes and things of the sort, all whilst researching these things myself.


Why did you join RaGEZONE?
I joined because I wanted to collaborate with other developers and learn more.
Through joining RaGEZONE, I have acquired so much knowledge, most I would not of
if I had chosen long ago not to join.

I lost my previous account and have been an active member here for almost 3 years. Do some research if you will... but I am applying for reasons beyond myself.


Why do I want to moderate the Jade Dynasty section?

Honestly, there's a lot of stuff that goes on there, and there's no order.
I want to revive the section, bring up the activity and restore the order.
Some of the best developers have left this section due to lack of stability
and structure, and it's just not right. RageZonE is by far the best development
forum in the world, and no section should have to suffer chaos because it
doesn't have an active moderator.

What would I contribute by being moderator?
Order. Honesty. Peace.
The way a forum should be. I am not at all insulting the past moderators,
but there has not been any order in the Jade Dynasty section for quite a while.
If I was to become a moderator, that's what I would strive to bring back.

I only ask for consideration. Nothing else.
Thanks for reading my application.




ADDED 15/08/2012:
I would like to officially extend my application to a new section for Forsaken World, and Battle of the Immortals. I have developed both games, and have general experience in developing most Perfect World Entertainment games as they are all made with the same profiles and game engines.


ADDED 26/09/2012:
As there is no longer any activity in the Jade Dynasty section, until comes a time which it would need to be moderated, I would like to aim my application more at Battle of the Immortals and a section for Forsaken World. - Ling

Thanks!

I'm already very familiar with what you do and do not know.
I know there will be an increase in activity in the section now that 1476 files are available.
Most may not know, but there really are only a handful of people that truly contribute to the section, both past and present.
Some are no longer in the section. But of the ones that are I can say you've been helpful and do know what you are doing.

I vouch for your application.

I know it's generally not looked upon highly, and I don't mind if that disapproves of my application, but I'm just bumping.
More the latter of the matter is I'd like to know if the Jade Dynasty section really needs another mod, or if not, when would be best to reapply in future (considering v1500 files are due to release soon).
