Ideas and Concepts Sub Forum

[Rufus]

Can you add a subforum to the PlayerWorlds Main Forum dedicated to concepts and ideas. All to often I hear of people with great ideas for servers, but they often don't have the drive to make them theirselves, or haven't got the ability or resources to persue it. A forum where people can discuss some new ideas might allow for some interesting new servers, and those who do have the resources and abilities could take on some of the concepts or ideas that are discussed.

Ideas and Concepts - Have a new idea for a server? Discuss it here.

Yes please!

I didn't say stick it in the development forum, so that's okay.

Well obviously it's not part of playerwords, either.

That answered my question.

My ideas are worth quite some amount of cash, why would I want to hand them out for people to steal?

Don't post them then, I'm sure it won't be that much of a loss. In fact, you can't lose something you never had, so it wont be a loss at all!

I was joking, what I meant are ideas and concepts aren't something you see too much 'round these here parts.

Very serious.


edit: well, not to detail my good friend Rufus' thread, I'll comment on it seriously. I dunno! I mean, I don't find a post in the playerworld section about ideas too out of place... and they're already pretty damn dead. Do we need another subforum that probably will never be used? I mean, it'd probably be a good idea in an active environment, but around here, I see it going to waste, sadly. On the other hand, having a subforum for ideas and concepts may just encourage people to actually post ideas and concepts... So I go with my original deduction -- I dunno!

What do you mean? They're my ideas, I came up with them. It would be theft for someone to use them without my explicit permission.

I see people posting threads in the Playerworlds section all of the time, good ideas and the author knows they're never going to take off. People feel as though when someone posts something in the main thread, they're claiming some form of right over it. I did a search in the Playerworlds Main Forum for all threads with the title "idea" in it, and there's four pages.

Perhaps we can start getting some good servers in development rather than the same direction, different owner?

We wouldn't know nor care if you didn't post them though

I didn't say ideas weren't frequent, but that the section itself is pretty dead. PW section gets like one thread a whole week... if that. Maybe 1/4 of those are for ideas. How much activity could a subforum with a similar interest of the main section get? Like I said, I'm pretty on the line about it... it could just be a big flop, or it could actually encourage ideas.

Having a box full of many ideas can be a good source of inspiration.
