Public save

    We have private and published saves, why don't we have public saves.
    This is a save that anyone can edit (as long as they are on a list attached to the save or maybe when someone edits it a request for permission is sent to the creator, or possibly a button to choose either/both). This would be good for community projects.

    .....God, actually an interesting idea.


    You do realize that if a save were public, it'd be demolished in no time at all, right? :P

    Which is why I stated we should have requests to the user for the changes to be made (the user can see what has been changed though) or a list of trusted people entered before publishing of save.

    History feature would just revert any naughty business.

    Good point, I think we should have the list thing in case the save is only limited to a group of people.

    Yeah, have both. I can imagine a public only thing would be trolled... a lot.

    Would it be hard to code or take too much server change though?

    It won't be hard, however it could be painful.

    Painful?
    What do you mean?
