I had noticed afew threads where players with lots of contributions were consolidating and culling their posts on certin topics. Would be great if Stardock did an official thing but players could do this to a great extent. I'm not one of the big posters and wouldn't know where to start myself.

NOTE: Remember the original name so it can be changed back when desired (I used "RandomNonG
I am fairly new to SINS and am already working on maps and modding. I have experience in modding Microsoft's "Freelancer" which is very quirky and labrythine but the problem I am having here is using the forum suggestions. You have stickied posts documenting no longer present features or processes, mixed posts covering several generations of the game with no distinction made when they have been made obsolete by game development, broken links to external utilities--several of whi
