Wow.
Recommendation #1 - Read the posts at the top of each forum, that'll tell you why we have each forum. This particular forum is for specific questions regarding specific game design. What you're looking for is more assistance, which belongs more under the 'Connections' heading.
#2 - Forge is for tabletop design and applications of d20 and original systems, not MMORPGs.
#3 - According to notes and what I've heard from other people, d20 cannot legally be applied to MMORPGs, so you'd be working on an illegal project in the first place.

We can proceed here if you have some actual questions regarding design, however as it stands your post really belongs over in Connections. And, not to burst any bubbles, but I don't think you're going to find the kind of help you're looking for anyhow.

I can actually speak informedly about the legal issues about d20 and software (you're basically right, Neo - d20 is explicitly forbidden, OGL/SRD games are implicitly made difficult to do), if anyone's interested and will refrain from putting numbers in the middle of words, rather than at the end where they belong (Behemoth3!)
