Hey guys, been a minute but I am here to post a suggestion regarding the site and what it has become over the last few months. Due to Mojang getting involved in the process of not allowing the sale of accounts and etc, the site is in an odd middle ground a feel like. Almost as if it is in limbo of what it wants to be/needs to be. So I am here to suggest that we add sections to make this a proper minecraft forum since we no longer can sell accounts and things along those lines. This may be looked at as a site revamp in a way, but really its more of an adaptation to the current site.
Of course you could still offer services, sell things such as builds, plugins, etc, but I feel we are missing a large margin of users that say, the official Minecraft forum has, that we as a community could very well have and grow. This would include sections to showcase user created:
-Mods
-Resource Packs
-Servers
-3rd Party created programs (such as a model creator)
-Builds (Semi-done)
-More
Essentially, this would make MC-Market a place for not only people to show their projects and advertise them to other players, but create and community around that. Minecraft as a game is still growing and will continue to grow, and this would allow this site to take the next step in growing as far as a userbase of creators. Currently it is greatly lacking in these departments.
For example I am the creator of a resource pack known as "Dramatic Skys" it is one of the top most downloaded texture packs of all time on Curse and in general with 1.4 million downloads. I would love to share it here to a new audience to get more growth on it as a project and as me, the creator. Though how the site is now, there is no way of doing so. I also know this is the case for many mod creators as well. This would not only allow the website to grow (Post wise and member wise), the users to grow and gain potential business opportunities, but help the community all around.
I personally do not see any "downsides" to this suggestion, like I have stated it will:
-Grow userbase
-Grow projects and future projects related to minecraft
-Bring business opportunities to big and small creators
To sum things up shortly, add sections to showcase Minecraft based projects.
If you have any suggestions to add to this, please state so below. Same goes for any questions regarding this as an idea or concept.
Thank you.
