What features are you dreaming about for this site?
ooh man, I have a vision of the site... But as for features, that's a hard one. I've added everything I truly want thus far. I'll be adding the ability to change the background of your profile page. I'm also thinking about adding a blog to the site. For the thing I'm dreaming about though... uhh.... I don't actually have one. :O I'm forever looking and thinking of amazing features to add, and when I do I'll either add them, or wait for funds to add them. So, my dream for features, is to have endless features that tends to every individual, and allows the community to access everything thing RMMV they need on one site, our site. The endless amount of features, would be the dream feature I want to add to the site.

If someday a new RPG Maker Engine releases, what will happen with this forum? Will we focus primarly on MV or we will change our priorities?

Did you consider scrapping this site and dedicating a new one to unicycles at one point?
I can't say that I did. But I did think about making an anti-dinosaur site at one point.

With how amazing this forum has grown, and how awesome the community is I'll more than likely buy a whole new domain, xenforo license, etc. and make the next site from there, and if I have the funds, I'll look into paying someone to set up a custom plugin to link both forums. So if you join one, you join both, and everything is transferable over to the next. If I do not have the funds, it'll simply be a separate entity entirely, but be ran the exact same way as this site.

I love your way of thinking. You really have a back up plan. I love it!

I try to have at least 3 :) I hate being disappointed (Which is why I look at the negatives, and plan for them). I also have a really good feeling about this community, and have to plan around this site taking off to be the next big RM community!

With MV having a way to play games via HTML in browser is there a way and if so do you think we'll have a playable demo section at some point?
 
I feel like @Xyphien 's AMA is balancing questions about not only him, but also the website. Haha! X3

Which Disney princess would you most like to BE, most like to MARRY, and lastly most like to KILL?

Where do you live and what education do you have?
What skills do you have that you are proud off?
uhh... The first question is kind of hard to answer with my current profession. I grew up in Virginia (US). I have a highschool deploma, and that's it. Though I'm currently about to go to class for a Net + cert, followed by Sec +.
I make websites XD It's the only hobby I've had other than Gaming, so it's the only thing I'm proud of I guess :O

I like being asked both about the website, and myself :D It allows people to settle any questions they may have with the website, or it's future :)

If I had to choose one, It'd be Elsa to be. The ability to control ice would be AWESOME! Mary... Is it weird to say Ariel? XD Kill... idk, Snow White. She's to mainstream.

This is something I actually started to think about when I found out MV has html capabilities I instantly wanted a section like this. I just haven't had the time to look into it, or try figuring out a way to implament it, or allow you all a way to implament it. Another thing is, I'd have to look into how much system memory it'd take up, etc. for the hosting plan I'm on. Seeing as you'd have to upload all the files of the game onto the sites directory, it could take up a huge load of the data. This makes it hard to allow this function to be available.

Don't forget about the possible vulnerabilities that come along with someone uploading a game with possible malicious code. There is a website that will host RM MV games soon, but he is also a web security guy and is providing everyone with a cpanel, this would stop the spread of any malicious code.

Q. Will you continue to develop games in RM even when you're 60 years old ?

I'm completely unsure about this XD That's another almost 38 years away rofl. However, if my RM sites stay popular/big, I will still be hosting RM forums even when I'm 60!

Heh heh heh, I think the hype for these threads definitely died off a bit.

Do you have a favorite kind of dinosaur? :D
