FileFront Network Site Proposal

FileFront Networking Site has been offically proposed, but we are hesitant...

from Sins Forums
Hi Guys,

I'm Sgt. D. Pilla, a FileFront Network Staff member of the Company of Heroes Files; FileFront website, some of you may recognize me from the forums or around and about in the other networking sites, more over, now that formality's are done, I am here to ask for the opinion, and an honest opinion, of the Sins community...

In the last week the interest in Sins of a Solar Empire has grown substantially on the FileFront forums, and even more recent, is the behind the scene's proposal of a FileFront networking website.
As some of you may know, FileFront is a file upload host that allows downloading of mods, maps, videos and any other game related file, each game, depending on popularity, is given a FileFront network site, and example of this would be Company of Heroes Files
Now this proposal has hit a stall, while some of us remain skeptical as to the success of a network site, some of us also think it would be a prime time for the development of such site.

I'm here as a liaison between the FileFront Network Administrator's, and other staff members, and yourselves.
We would like to know the community's honest opinion on the need/demand for a FileFront Network Site for Sins.

So thoughts? Suggestions, and Opinions...BEGIN! All opinions are greatly appreciated

--EDIT--
Sorry if the line breaks don't work, I tried the < BR > tag and if that doesn't work, I'm stumped

I think that everybody here is perhaps getting a little too hostile over this issue...

@Carbon - What matters is that people are putting their heart and soul into doing stuff for a community, for free and in some cases at their own expense (like me) and others are using their work to generate profits and build businesses. Then those same people dont even have the enough consideration to give back to the community; since of course their entire reason for getting involved (I use that word loosely) was to make a profit on the back of the community in the first place. That is called exploitation where I come from - pure and simple. For what it is worth, I don't think I'm reading reading to much into things with that line of thought. Anyway, for the sake of argument lets agree to disagree on view points.

I for one am all for the FF Sins mod site/community deal. I've gone through FF for a great many game related things, and I've been pleased. I haven't had to pay for anything from FF, so I'm not sure where you're getting the whole "Exploitation for profit" idea. Back when I played Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy, the respective FF site was pretty much a one-stop shop for mods/models/skins.

What this FF site thingy would be good for is that it would be a nice central place for all the mods and stuff. That way, you're not going all hither and yon over the internet in search of whatever it is you're looking for.
