Hi,
My name will have to remain in the dark for now.
I am currently working for SOE entertainment and headed the team of game design for Starwars Galaxies a while ago before they introduced the NGE.
I am here on my own accord to help small gaming communities grow and develop with my guidence.
I ask for no pay. I am doing this on my free will.
What i do, well i simply come up with most of the ideas and structure from games. I come up with management schemes for the game management that will be used in the future.
I am not familiar with the coding used in these games.
for those interested in my services just contact [email protected] by mail please.
thankyou
- well as i said i am working for free which is a great benefit for you.
- I have expirience with game design and team management.
- I was the head of strucural design for the starwars galaxies production.
- I have GM expirience on vastly played multiplayer games such as SWG and everquest 1.
- I am in London working on a small project at the moment. (can't talk about it)
- I have a fair amount of free time.
- I specialise in designing the games, not making them.
- I have a great amount of expirience in team leadership and management of staff.
- I design ranking systems for most of SOE's games.
I can be contacted on [email protected] (i can't give out my real mail so i had to make a temperory one).
I will check the forums for a reply aswell.
thankyou.
FAQ
Q: Why would someone who helped head Star Wars Galaxies freely give guidance for games that are 2D based only? Quite interesting if you ask me. I am currently in the process of using both BYOND and Game Maker, I use GM for my more action paced games. I am currently making two games, one called The Forgotten Tomes The Apocalypse which is a ORPG for BYOND and the other called Raine: The Attack which is much like Space Oddity featured on this page.
A:
well to answer your question, my answer is that i am here on my own accord, i have moved to London and am working on a smaller project at the moment which gives me some more free time, this sort of thing is one of my hobbies so i am only here for fun and my expirience gives me some advantages.
and for the tips part.
- i cant really give u any design tips as i dont know what exact type of game your making, however i will tell you that you have to take the time to make what the players want, that will get you places.
- for a management tip, dont publish untill your game is actually ready to go live, and stay live, make sure you have a reliable host who will not let you down, also make sure you have a full team of staff.
please dont hesitate to ask further questions.

Doesn't prove anything - could be a second key, or something of the like.
Of course, I think the accusation was unfounded - though the spelling and grammar was a little iffy for someone who works professionally in the area of game design. Not to mention the use of the term 'coding'. |

I have a few questions if you don't mind..
1) Why mis-spell Sony with Sont? I am sure it was a mistake since T and Y are close to each other but, you can always edit/spell-check your post. 2) Why make several grammar mistakes? As a SOE representative, I would figure you guys would type and talk with correct use of the English language, as the BLIZZARD representatives do. 3) I have noticed that you have significantly shortened you to u. Is it really that hard to type two extra letters? 4) Who are you really and how old are you? From several grammar mistakes, it seems highly improbable that you actually work for SOE and is some kid trying to get attention. Do not take this as flaming as I am just asking questions. Questions that, are basically on people's minds. I am sure other people dislike being lied to, as I sure do. I did find this post undoubtedly funny, along with the reply from Zaole. Thanks for the good laugh. |

Don't hesistate to ask further questions? Okay.
1) Why are you faking this? Do you honestly believe that someone thinks you're who you claim to be? The head of SOE, I'm sure, would have better grammar skills than this. 2) Why would you use the term 'coding', Mr. Anonymous head of SOE that anyone with an IQ higher than 70 could figure out with easy research? Obviously, with your vast knowledge of game design, you should know that the proper term is 'programming' and that only a complete newbie would use the previous term. 3) You should obviously be able to learn DM easily, considering you must've had previous experience with C++, and know that DM is C-based, and has many similiarities. 4) Why didn't you even bother to do a little research into the person you're impersonating before you impersonate them? I mean, my god, you didn't even bother to research this mans name. How do you expect us to believe you when you won't give us easily accessed information. 5) How long do you intend on trying to keep this charade going? |

All I can say is; What a load of doddle.
One thing that hasn't been mentioned yet in these posts are, why the hell are you saying you are an employee of Sony Online Entertainment (SoE), yet giving yourself a Blizzard referenced email address? First of all, SoE has nothing to do with either of these two companies Blizzard Entertainment or Vivendi Universal Studios (Was slightly brought up as a question by Alathon concerning Blizzard, as for Vivendi, we all know who they are :P). So next time you do try to impose as a world wide company employee, try to do at least a little research upon what you should know beforehand. As a last question before I post, why in the name of who you are did you use a @hotmail.co.uk address? Why not G-Mail, or something else? As Alathon also stated, why say you are somebody (Raph Koster) and hide acknowledgement of who you are because of BYOND being a public sector? As he also stated, Raph Koster has nothing to hide with him having his own website up and running. --Lee |
Heh, good job trying to make a long post to make it look proffessional but you messed up before you even started. It says Sont in your title, not Sony..'-.-

How can English not be your first language if you were born in Long Island(Which I think is America if I'm not msitaken)? 0_0 But if you are the real deal, you can prove it by making a post about Byond on yer site...

There are many people on Long Island that don't speak english. Sure, not in my town, or any towns that I go to, but they must be some :-/
