Introduction: Hello, so most of you know me as Reggles44 but you may also call me Reginald. I am a Junior at Clarkson University pursuing a dual degree in Financial Analysis and Entrepreneurship. My experiences in Meep started back in late 2012 when I first joined as a citizen and started the town NorthWater. I played meep on and off for a number of years mostly coming back in the spring and early fall to reunite with friends and the community. Recently, I took a break from meep because of a mix of personal problems and dissatisfaction with situations within the staff team.

Please describe your experience as a developer. As developer knowledge goes I have little experience compared to current and previous Meep developers such as Btilm305 and Dblosevn. Even so I have worked in the staff team for years on development and fixes which has given me a huge advantage in coding plugins for meep. As you might already be aware of I started coding for Meep mid-summer 2015 where I worked on a new Kitpvp plugin for Meep. As this was my first time creating a complete plugin for a minecraft server I needed assistance which Dblosevn graciously helped with. I later worked on updated to Kitpvp as well as bug fixes for Boomo followed by completely new plugins such as the Halloween 2015 Event, Staff Advertisements, and various other staff plugins which I don't think I can mention here. Overall, my experience with coding isn't top notch however my ability to translate ideas from the community and staff into reality is my most useful trait as a developer.

What programming languages are you familiar with? I am capable with Java and Javascript, and can make due with PHP, Ruby and Python. Of Course I know Html and CSS but I'm not sure you would count those as languages.

What are you most proud of as your work as a developer? The current kitpvp plugin is my best work for meep, even though I had a lot of help from Dblosevn on that project it was the most enjoyable and intensive plugin I have made.

How do you plan to enrich the experience of MeepCraft with your development contributions? So after my brief time away I have seen a couple things which need to be addressed immediately. First, the mini games which aren't in use need to be scrapped and fresh ones need to be put in or started down the development process. Second, the old systems which were never really finished need to either be removed or reworked entirely (Stock market, pets, etc.) Finally, meep needs to redefine its market segment and create a user experience which can't be found elsewhere. At first we defined it as towny however that doesn't seem to be a place where people are interested which is why I suggest we move to a more survival based server where players can experience different types of survival and pvp, such as airship and the new survival mode. My role in all of this would be to facilitate the process in which ideas become reality for the server in either creating content which can be implemented or maintaining the server so others with more experience can create content.

Do you have a GitHub account or personal website? If so, please provide the link(s) here. I have a GitHub account which I used while I was doing development when I was an admin. I'm also familiar with the beanstalk platform which Meep has moved to. I can provide a link to GitHub upon request but I don't think that would be necessary as Dblosevn already has access to all of my content.

 

+1, I have been waiting for this for quite some time now. I watched you slowly become a Tech while you were admin, and I'd love to see you back on the team fixing stuff up and building new plugins.

 

I havnt +1'd in a few months.

Still not gunna.

Jk+1

 

You don't even know how to c++ -1

 

You took a huge role in writing plugins as an admin, so you're clearly capable. Plus we're in need of a good tech; poor dblosevn is overworked. You were a good admin too but that's beside the point.

ez +1

 

+1 D: the reggles is back

 

Oml reggles I missed you so much! I will be so glad to see you back on the team! Admin was probably really time consuming and I know you were being requested all over the place and tech isn't as demanding a so imo perfect position for you!

+1

 

idk ur so unexperienced

Well, this is an obvious one.
+1
Experience
Friendly, positive
Could push the staff back into the right direction.

 

Missed you.
don't leave us again please.
+1

 

Im at a +/-, leaning well towards a +1


Great programmer, great person. The way you resigned I felt caused a lot of commotion but it may have been in the heat of the moment. I also feel like hunting and paying for references (100k to a citizen to +1 you) isn't the best of things to look for in someone who quit the team in rage, but good luck!

 

Such +1 much wow
Nice
Cool person
um +1
---------------------
+9999999

 

+1 I'd rather have you back as an admin but tech is cool too. You seemed to know what you were doing before as a "tech admin" so you coming back as a tech should be an improvement to the server.

 

+1 Let's be honest: How can you not be accepted? You have experience, have showed you have skills in the past, and meep is in ned of more techs. Good Luck!

 

+1, I'd be super glad to have you back on the team, even though it may be as a different position!

 

+1 Yes pls

Welcome back @reggles44
<3

 

+1
You have a ton of good experience, plus you're really nice. It'd be great to have you back as staff.
Good luck reggles!

 

well well well. who do we have here? +1

 

+1, only if you exclusively make things for towny.

 

Hiya,
+1
- experience (some is better than none)
- friendly

Reggles I haven't seen you online a lot at all. Whenever I tried to talk with you you ignored me. Am I not good enough? I know my vote is lost in the wave of plus 1's but I really wish you would include me.
