look for mod ash:
What made you join Jagex?:
Some guy in a bar, I think he said his name was Andrew Gower, kept on talking about something called RuneScape. This was around 2001/2. His mates told me it was a game where people clicked on rocks all day. I figured I gotta get me some of that, so I started playing, and in 2004, when I was about to graduate from Uni, I applied for a job. I was a forum mod at the time, which may have helped in the interview.

Content developer, all-night bugfixer, stand-in for Mod Nexus when he's on holiday.
