Forum Improvement: Resource Dump + Game Design Forum

Okay, I thought this might be a decent idea. Right now, we have a bunch of separate forums for resources and such like graphics, music, and so on. I was thinking that it might be a good idea to create an area where people can put resources that everyone can make use of. (Like tilesets to make LATing for certain servers easier, music, and so on.) Right now, unless you go on other servers and edit their stuff to make it your own, it's usually hard to find resources for doing certain things. I think the code gallery in the scripting forum is nice, and similar things could be implemented so people can quickly grab resources without being accused of stealing them or whatever. Just a thought.

As for the game design forum idea, I was wondering what other people see as being sucessful or unsuccessful game ideas. So, a tiny forum to have discussion on different aspects of a server might spark some new ideas. We all talk about needing help with staffing and stuff like that, but usually it's not specific. (How a menu should be designed, what sort of economy should be in place, should there be more emphasis on dungeon design, etc.) That forum could possibly be thrown into playerworlds as a subforum as well.


Anyway, just my two cents. I'd just like to see the community come together and share ideas / resources more, instead of privatizing it all.
