wow, that does actually sound really good.
Problem with that is what if you want to request a character somebody else has, would you bother them for it or what?
Uh... you just request it and problem solved? Explain, I didn't fully understand your point.
Think of it like this, You have the character, you posted your email address...

Tons of people want said character, they bombard your email, sounds fun, right?

A better question would be would this replace the buttons? If you get 1 topic to post in the section then there would be no point for the character, stage, etc buttons

I guess that's one good reason to then use sendspace and that stuff. Also, PM could help, in the case of using email. And if you use this: "send to lotf at gmail dot com", it reduces your spam targetability in 90%. People are too lazy. Most don't read or even care to interpret. But yeah, I'm just giving a suggestion. I have no administration powah.

They can still be used in the release/wip sections. Do mods/administrators get their life force drained if in the request section people don't necessarily use those tags ???.

Just "legislating"  ;D. Law school ftw.

I still get emails for a post I made like that about a year ago at MGBR's request forum

actually, if you plan to put mods in the request section that is, I would suggest Wolfmage here become a mod for that section. He has done pretty well at answering requests and keeping "some" order over there from what I can see.

If we go with the 1 topic per user for Requests we can always allow the topic starter to have moderation powers over his own topic. That can help prevent spam. Don't like the replies being given? Delete them!

That would be an "excellent" idea. It would cut down on the number of topics, and hopefully cut down on spam. Perhaps a poll should be put up for this idea?

No u.
Your ideas were opensourced by martial law since a while ago.

They are belong to us.
OH NOEZ

open, isn't this forum about having the char you want? pp just need to be more helpful with others and open char shops or something like that.
This forum is for sharing, collaborating, helping, getting helped in Mugen projects. Not ONLY a forum from "having the char you want".
