I don't post much here, but I definitely read everything and have implemented many hacks on my board.
I'd love to get involved with coding and writing modifications but there's just a general lack of knowledge and overwhelm with "where to start..."
I think Quick was right in that direction or guidance would be especially beneficial to those willing and interested in doing some of the work...
I understand the dilemma though, there's only so much you can do without doing it all or getting frustrated and quitting.
Maybe create some teams and create some kinds of competition or something for groups creating the best mods?
