History
The history of Ameoto Systems and its employees
2005
Ameoto Systems was once known as Thetooth Systems or J-Tech Systems. Just a name and nothing else
2006
In 2006 Ameoto Systems was (re)founded by TheTooth in order to build a fan site for the Nintendo Revolution. However things did not go to plan, Me and my co-developer, simply did not have the skills to maintain a site of such a level and so towards the end of 2006 we began drawing a design for what would one day be called nfamikon.
In December 2006, Ameoto Systems moved 1646km south to setup a new firm and take over the world
2007
2007 was a golden era for Ameoto Systems with a successful launch of nfamikon sometimes bringing in 20 new members a day, by this time my partner had left and i was working over time to keep the site running. Later i learned many skills in web design and began to drift away from nfamikon, 1 month later i joined the development team of wiichat.net(now wiichat.com) and we began building a small community off our dream piece of software called vbulletin board, with this very software we could launch articles and mass email members in a matter of seconds were before it would take days to write the same using our own tools. This was a major turning point for Ameoto Systems and my self as we began to look to server-side scripts to speed up development time and make life easer.
After wiichat.net was under way i respectfully left the team to start work on nfamikon, but there was a catch, at this point i was working by my self and on live code so every time there was a mistake the site would fall down. It wasn't too long until my community of 235 slowly melted away. After that i gave up on web design completely and got really popular at school(How dose that work?) and became how you say? a "gamer", then along came a crisp and inviting winter that gave me the crazy idea of taking up graphics editing. I had already worked with Photoshop and AutoCAD so this was the next logical step!
As my skills improved, i fond that unlike coding, graphics was highly appreciated by my friends and other students, this also gave me a lot of spare time in class as the teachers were less suspicious of what i was doing on my laptop. Later on i began to look back at my old work and started to play around with php, making advanced scripts such as a To Do List.
2008
2008 had an interesting start as i settled into my new school and began doing a UNI course in multimedia, i dove right into php and by February i had the very first concept of a regex preprocessor running. At this point we finally had a site for Ameoto Systems were i would use to blog about my boring life, we also launched the site animedubsub.com and as you probably guessed fell flat on its face.
As i got more and more fluent in php and html i began building a syntax parser that could convert bbcode into clean html output, but why not use something that's already out there? "because they are slow" so me and a former C++ developer got to work on the basic engine that would power the parser, the idea was to build a function of which many other functions can be called and only work with a single string of text at a time. This created the back bone of the parser you see today, nick named DRPS(dynamic regex preprocessing system).
After making the decision to license our parser under open source i found the best way to use it would be to bundle it with some kind of script, and so the development of WhiteCrane began under the code name of "ISANE". During this time the Ameoto DEV site was was launched and was the first site to use the components and also contained many good tutorials and sample codes(so much text was lost
).
Today i am writing an exam on something i know nothing about, no research, no nothing. SO instead i will tell you the story of a dvd burner. This was no ordinary dvd burner because it also prosiest blu-ray technology making it one of the most wanted devices of 2008 and unlike other disc drives it spent its life serving a hacker by the name of "harstelar435" the green one as it burnt pirated movies and HD hentai it felt some what empty inside, like it was missing something important.
So one day while burning 42GB of HOT "Japanese school girls meet Chuck Norris" at 8272kb/sec it decided it had enough. With a simple tweak of the I/O chip it melted its own laser rendering the $5 blu-ray disc inside useless. The hacker noticed after the msn convo with his friend "moot" begun to lag. Quickly, he opened up his $7,000 machine to see a pocket of smoke rise up. Hitting the power button even though he was 72% though downloading adobe flash CS4 pre release he quickly shut his machine off. 2hr later. he had removed every component and reseated the heat sink on the CPU. but one thing remained - the disc drive... After realizing it was the drive he wanted to get a new one but the hacker was much to scared to go outside. Sure he had always dreamed of moving to tokyo for the 50mb/sec connection and the cute Nintendo loving teens but instead asked his mum to do it for him...
On the 21st of December 2008 an Internal Beta of WhiteCrane was released privately to our partners including trinest.com.
2009
Although many of the crazy demands of trinest were ignored, on the 21st of January 2009(5 days after my bday!) WhiteCrane 1.0.1 was released to the masses and was installed on 36 servers world wide. With that much demand on the first release i got to work fixing all the errors that came up and this also gave me a chance to test the parser in real world conditions.

While enjoying the success of WhiteCrane i did some heavy work on Ameoto DEV and gave it the new look you see today and some very useful back-end functions you wont find in WhiteCrane builds xD
Over the last 11 months major improvements and new features were added to WhiteCrane and it is now widely used in Japan and Germany
Ameoto Systems is now approaching 5 years in existence!
