Server Wiki esque?
Just something I was thinking about, thought I'd shoot out there and see what the response was...
Why not have a server on the idea of teh wikki... have a dedicated non-legit server running where everyone has all the necessary priviledges in order to spawn a zone... then people can come in, spawn zones, fix spawns, adjust things and pop their favorite zones that they know like the back of their hand, and in (theoretically) a very short time we could populate most of the expansions taking the best of all the player's knowledge base to create the correct mobs in the correct areas on teh correct grids etc etc... sure theres alot you can't do from in the game, like loot tables, but that would be a whole lot less work for the people that are trying to do this all themselves... I know several people are trying to populate their server expansions like live, why not harness that?
To give back to the group, the server admin of whoever is willing to put up a dedicated server, can dump mob info and spawn info (prefferably by zone) back into the forum so that people can easily get the updates they want, including the people that spawned them in the first place (so they don't have to do it on the test server as well as their own) could probably do this maybe 1ce a week or so to keep people updated...
Anyways, just something that hit me in the night sorta speak... what do people think?
