Who am I?
I'm currently a student undertaking their Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, based in the UK, of which I am currently sitting at a 1st grade for my first and second year. My previous experience includes working directly for Bukkit as a member on their moderation team, originally under the name RightLegRed, then Archelaus, until I left my post. Previous work includes working as a founding member on the "Heroes" plugin, and a large amount of contractual work for international clients, mostly for Bukkit-related plugins but often for miscellaneous development work.
What can I do?
I am a multi-talented individual, with skills extending from development to critical network analysis, with basis understanding of most fundamental computer related theories which I apply heavily to my work to ensure it's the best possible standard. My programming related knowledge is as follows.
Skills

Java
Fluent and capable of rapid development cycles, with exceptional understanding of all Java related technologies, including Android and Integrated Environments (I've made a Java controlled kettle, University is just a party!)​
Lua
I am well versed in Lua, in integrated environments and with network capabilities.​
Server-side
I am well versed in database management, construction and implementation which is essential often with persistence. As well as this, I also have experience working with client to server communications and how to handle sessions.​
Network
My understanding of TCP/UDP communications as well as other communication protocols allows me to deliver the best performing network solution to any given problem, with best throughput and delivery ensuring end-user satisfaction.​
How much would it cost?
I do not like to set a price for the "size" of a plugin, I would like to do this on a case-by-case standard. I am not a individual whom sees programming as a chore, as it's a hobby for myself, so I will not be charging you anything like industry standard. If you come to me with an idea and a clear explanation of your idea, we will talk about the features and I will get an understanding of what you want and together we will work out a fair price, for you as well as myself.​
How do I contact you?
For general questions, about myself or my skills, please post here and I will be monitoring this thread for convenience sake!
If you would like a more instant messaging approach, I have Skype and am open to exploring new avenues of communication if it requires!
I do have a microphone, and I am comfortable with talking with it to people. I have all the basic voice communication programs installed and am happy to jump in and have a chat.
The aforementioned credentials are available upon request.​
Can I see some of your stuff?
Of course you can! Unfortunately I've been off the "mainstream" side of Minecraft for a long time and have been solely doing contractual work for the last few years. My most prevalent work, being Heroes, is currently owned intellectually by Kainzo, the mastermind behind the original idea for Heroes.

This is a video from 2012, which is just after we released, and shows off some of the features.
Another developer has undertaken the project, and still updates it to this day, which I believe speaks wonders for the work myself and the rest of the Heroes team did.​

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

I may have missed it, but can you code large plugins such as minigames?

I'm sure open to the possibility of doing so, I have prior experience with large scale gameplay overhaul systems, but a large request would not be an overnight development and a plausible time frame would be required. The payment model on such a development would have to be agreed upon as well, as often I've developed a large project for someone only to have them back out after getting bored of the idea.

Hey Archelaus,
We are interested in using your skills for a larger series of plugin development (paid) for our upcoming minecraft RPG server, Tales of Firma. I posted a thread requesting for some, but I was wondering if you would be interested?
Please Private Message (or Skype: William27528) me and we will discuss further.
~ The Tales of Firma team
