If it was not done before, why now?
Largely because we are at the END, and for the dozen or so ideas that Stardock might really want some feedback on, it would consolidate input in one place. I can't believe things aren't getting lost in the clutter of hundreds of independent links (like this one) that are being created-- Essence is a perfect example of a topic that has easily a dozen different threads.
A sticky, sub-forum, anything that helps consolidate so the good ideas that you all are posting are in one place. If I want an ice cream I don't want to have to run to the garage, back shed, bathroom, dog house, etc. to search for it-- just want to look on the top shelf of the freezer....
