Well even though I haven't been around for a while, I suggest that the Hacks Showcase be cleaned up a bit. First you should seperate the hacks by their completion rate. (Ex. 100% Complete, Testing Phase, Development Phase)
Plus that would help the people who would be in the development phase who are recruiting ppl to help with their hack.
We had something in the likes of that a while ago. It was called "Finished Product/Demo Archive", and was a stickied thread.
Almost no one made use of it, so we dropped the idea.
Besides that, seperating threads is not possible with default vB functions.
About the "Help recruitment", we have a thread for that in the Hacking Groups forum.
Second, the Tools folder and the Tutorials have been wiped clean. I suggest trying to get that back because many beginning ROM hackers (like myself) may have some trouble sifting through the numerous documents on the web.
Thats about all the suggestions I have for now and I hope you at least think about these ideas
If you would have paid a bit of attention to threads lately, you would know that we're working on it already.
