Like the subject says, I'm curious if there are ways non coders can help with this (or the vanguard) project.

Not sure about VGO that is [mention]xinux[/mention]'s department.

For us here at eq2emulator we can use everything from C++ devs to content cleanup. The biggest thing being spawn scripts and quest scripts.

is any of that stuff that can be done by people without coding exp?

Cleanup of mass popped zones requires no coding.

Really you would just run around in game (on the eq2emulator server) and remove pets, combine groups and set up place holders for spawns. Also there is making lists of event spawns and disabling them(not removing) as well as fixing doors so they open right. All this requires is ingame commands and the use of a web editor.

I would definitely be willing to try that. I would even try other things, if it wasn't difficult to pick up
