So I had this idea of creating a 'Talent Exchange'
The Modders Cooperative!
There would be 2 'Teams' the Monkeys and the Wizards!
Wizards:
These are the rare magical beings that exist in these forums that actually KNOW what they are doing, they brighten our lives releasing amazing mods and features that do all kinds of amazing things using the dark and mystrious arts of CODE!
Monkeys:
Like me I am sure there are many others out there who love modding, but when it comes to anything much beyond the depths of copy and paste they begin to lose all sense of understanding and are left helplessly flinging their faeces at the computer screen wondering 'WHY WON'T IT WORK!!!!' (maybe the poop flinging is where I am going wrong)
What all us monkeys can do though is copy/paste line after line and reference after reference in the xml files and change all the numbers and letters to do magical things in our computer and makes us feel all warm and fuzzy (and fling faeces at our computer screens in celebration.. I am not the only one right? that's not weird at all!)
So I offer a Trade!
We monkeys band together and say 'Oh Wise Wizards give us your amazing mod comps and help to make them user friendly so we monkeys can change the numbers and letters and play too! Help us push back the Darkness of the "I wish I could make it do this's..thisie??... what I wants!" In exchange Oh Wise Wizards we will endlessly copy/paste your xml files adding in all those units, buildings, resources, and art references that you desire for your mods!'
So is this a good Idea?
Will any Monkeys Sign Up and Join me?
Do any Wizards require Monkey Labourers?
Does anyone see the benefit to push the Frontiers of Col. forward and getting great mods to the masses faster?
If So Then JOIN US!! (Me....)
