[edit] A Brief History

And I do mean brief

Aeo / Aeon has been playing MMO titles since 1997 (Ultima Online, Napa Shard), the same year he first worked in the computer game industry for Ubisoft. He was once a full time employee of Stratics and helped generate media attention for the original Jumpgate title during its beta. Most recently he ran the Devil's Horde raiding guild on Hellscream in World of Warcraft. If he doesn't see another sword, shield, or set of tier gear for two years that'll be just fine.

[edit] What is this "real life" you speak of?

Outside of the virtual world, he lives just North of San Francisco. Ian has a background in product marketing/management and a degree in advertising strategy. He is a published music producer in downtempo and house. Currently, he is exiled to legal IT while working for the family business. In that capacity he holds an MCSE, along with several other administrative certifications, and spends long days in front of a computer terminal replying to posts in the Jumpgate Forums when things are running smoothly. You can catch him at swanky Bay Area events like "French Tuesdays" (no, not French) or grabbing wine and food down on Belden Alley.

Apparently, he talks about himself in the third person on a Wiki. He'll have to get back to you about that...
