So I want to do something big. My I idea is for yet another website! Yeah I hear what your saying, “but Warll that is the last thing the SMR community needs”. Well you’re right, I myself don’t think the SMR community is large enough to support even two sites, although in this case it likely would fall apart if it was forced into the same one. What I would like to do is make a one stop destination for new users. Heres what I have so far after very brief brainstorming:
- It would be a related URL so that if we play the cards right we might just be able to get it to show up on google searches.
- It would be wordpress based, include a directory of maps and host maps.
- There should be a easy to use GUI tool for changing maps, the SAMs are so simple it is a shame that nothing automated has been made.
- It would be a platform for both sides of the community, if new users want to go deeper they may. As I see it now the amount of drama will simply stare new users away.
- It can be hosted on my dreamhost account although if it gets big as I hope it does ads can be added. Thats neither here nor there though.
The entire point of this would be to get new players to SMR and get the content that is already out there to people. There is a need for this as can be seen from the fact that people are still downlaoding SMRI.
