Nice. Maybe some updates are in store.

But what this engine really needs is more documentation, and not only that, GUIDES. Example guides to get people started to reduce question traffic. For instance: What is the spell that everyone eventually makes first? The one that we all ask the same questions to get to? Fireball! A step by step guide to get a fireball, with instructions for making it class specific, is really very necissary.

Now I am not saying this to encourage noobery and copypasta around the forums, but taking some steps towards reducing vbgore's learning curve before expanding the engine's capability is definately what I would do. I also understand that since those who have the power to teach already must be proficient in the engine themselves, this knowlege makes helping those who are more ignorant...well, boring. They would much rather challenge their own minds in further expanding the engine and creating new possibilities. But wouldn't it be great if we could open up what we know right now to new people? More consistant members would generate more income viewing the site's ads and clicking them... And also we may find that some of them will be come valuable members to the community, it's just the learning curve is what is preventing them from surmounting the barrier.

You can say, "But human, if you are so keen on training the next generation, then why don't YOU write these aforementioned guides?"
It's because I really am an art dude, and I have several art guides in the works already. I am not knowlegable enough in my programming skills to explain how things work in my guides, nor is my expertise wide enough to properly answer questions. Though I will be more than happy to proofread grammar, and rework sentences to read more clearly.

Thanks for reading my schpiel!
