I understand, SailorSteve, thank you for your answer.

I know, It's already a huge site with so many different forums and links everywhere anyway...

But I originaly started the subject because it's really a pain now when you have to find a file, with BTS closed and FF than has erased so many files too, and most of the time when a link to a file is posted, the links are down..

So what I was meaning rather would be a sticky with members in alpha order ( like in the Captains roster for instance were anyone having files uploaded ANYWHERE would give a working link ( with somebody tracking the ones not working and members reporting the broken links) so we would be able to very quickly have a database oflinks for anyone having uploaded files anywhere.

I think it would'nt be a bad idea, as I'm not the only one bothered when lookink for files ( read Laufen zum ziel among many other ). Actually a lot of people are very upset with this issue with FF, BTS disappearance ). For example Rafael took the liberty of uploading Thomsen sound files very recently, and that was nice from him, because it was nowhere to be found. And it's the case with many many files. Also that would save a lot of useless writing, asking were is this file, where is that one etc..

Don't misunderstand me, I'm not asking Subsim to upload each and every file SH3 related, but a thread with a solid links database of where to find files, I mean LINKS in working order ( for those members having files uploaded at some site ).
I'm not mentionning all this for myself alone.

I don't know if it's feasible, if yes, may be a poll would tell us if I am the only one to think that way...

Thank you anyway for your attention.
