[Colin F]

Thanks for the introduction, Xenon.

So that you all know who you're dealing with, let me present myself a bit more detailed.


I'm from Switzerland (small country in the middle of Europe, famous for it's banks, chocolate, trains & skiing areas), where I live in a small town (5000 inhabitants) in the north, rather close to border to Germany.
I speak German and English fluently, because I was raised bilangualy and also lived in New York for almost four years.
I'm a student at a business school close to where I live and as a part of this school I'm currently working in an office for a year.

My first contact with Bulletin Boards was moderating on UBB, a long long time ago. I was quickly raised to technical administrator, but we had such a big mess with modifications installed and custom coding around that we soon just dumped the UBB and switched to vBulletin. That was in the 2.x times, when hacks were still called hacks and were located on the vBulletin.com forums. Over the course of time I left that board, helped build up another one built on wbb, didn't manage to convince to owner to switch to vB and left again.
Currently I'm working on a rather large modification project in which vBulletin 3 is going to power an entire site, from a custom photo gallery, over a dating system and a whole backend to manage staff at partys.

I like to help out on these forums because I know what it feels like to wait forever, bump a thread five times and not get an answer

That's about it from me, I'm looking forward to helping even more
See you around.
