    Why cant you just make a whole section instead of a thread for people who need help?

    Who ever agrees just put your answer on the poll

    In either case, a thread is fine. Although some kind of archive for answered questions would help (so long as people actually read it first before asking a repeat question). Once again, I suggest a wiki.

    Yea i Like the archive to its a good idea so we don't have to see the same questions over, and over but There should also be a section so we dun have to look @ 300 posts in one thread

    Why would you need an entire section? A thread should suffice. You don't need a thread just to announce that you need a spriter, and then another for a musician. :\
    And threads like these aren't doing this section any good... Jesus... When will people learn?

    I have to agree. The section would become flooded with two-post threads if there weren't a thread for it.

    people don't even read essentials notes that COMES with the kit, what makes you think ppl will read the wiki? There will always be people asking stupid questions. So I would just leave as it is...

    Yea the notes on essentials are pretty good, but a lot of people needs better explaining!
    GL on your wiki man ill see if i can help time to time...
    I might make a rival system alot of people wants one... But if they read the notes they can find out.

    Instead of making this thread you should of just PMed Avatar or I.
    The reason why we have only one thread is generally because of help and request posts tend to ask for the same things and to do with editing the essentials scripts.
    Because of this, we keep everything in one thread for tidy-ness on the forums (or 2 if you count the starter kit thread itself).

    A community run wiki sounds like a great idea to help people if it's done right. A lot of effort is needed to make it clear and easy for people to understand, and I do doubt if it will come across as needed.
    Time, as well as you guys, will tell.

    I'll be working on the wiki more later... Also all content will be available to be edited and fixed by anyone. But it some have some restrictions due to spammers.

    I disagree with that wiki.(King Charizards that is)
    Reasons:
    You didn't put ANY care into planning it
    No content*
    You left all the default crap*
    Wasn't your idea
    Not officially for PC
    People should just read the notes, no one will read this wiki

    *I understand that will probably change.

    Actually the wiki's address has changed and i'm not releasing it till i have completed a basic wiki... I know its not my idea, and its not my wiki either... If fact I wish for it to be a community project. But someone has to actually start it. If some1 releases a better wiki before me i'll be happy to contribute my content and thoughts...
