Damn Krackers, you and me are definately on the same wavelength...
4-5 months ago I mentioned about a talent thread to be sticked where people with SKILLZ (ONLY, no extraneous postings, moderators hawk that thread for ads only not requests) could post what they can do and then once they are engaged in a project they edit their ad and put on the bottom under the field of CURENT STATUS: (Unavailable) or (Available) and people could email or IM/ICQ them and get help for their projects either across the board or for limited situations like a single ship that needs turrenting or mapping or whatever the problem is. I thought it was a brilliant idea but noo ne showed any support for it.
Second was a project emprorium where you can get backgrounds, new icons, weapons, ships, ect much like now BUT mainly a ship part yard (noses, main bodies, wings, engines, bridges/cockpits, bays, cargo areas, ect so people with limited modling experience can build their own custom ships out of generic parts like a Mr. potato head but with hundres (if not thousands) of combinations. I thought this was a NEAT idea...
again not one comment of agreement if I remember correctly.... Meh...
