<forumuser name="Revival" /> RevivalDBM is a PHP (among other languages) programmer, fangamer (albeit his projects have never finished), and Linux user. He originally spent his time at Sonic Cage Dome but left later.

History

Revival joined the Sonic Scene in mid-2006 and lurked for a while at various forums. Up until October 2006, he lacked ADSL internet access and hence only visited the internet for an hour a day with slow speeds. When broadband became availible in his town, he set up a router with his ISP, NamesCO/BBMax/NDO. A month later, he made his first post at a forum, SCD; "Hi.....I'm new here...and I'm not sure what else to write...". He shown his fangame to the forum and began branching out to other communities on the internet.

His websites

In Janruary 2007, he created his first website: Tails Team. It ran on a poor-quality PHP forum script, but it paved the way to evolving into a whole new site. Eventually, Revival gave it up, and inherited another forum; Sonic Deck. He ran it for 9 months, but eventually it was handed over to a new team, leaving Revival with his current site, expected to be released in September; Oakum Networks.

His Projects

RevivalDBM has had many projects, including many failed fangames and hacks kept private, but is currently working on OnyxOS, a UNIX-like OS based on a Hybrid Kernel of his design. It's currently capable of executing programs from a floppy disk (and all the other work that must be done to do so, like FAT FS drivers, memory management, etc).
