It's totally possible that this was discussed and veto'd re: Atonement, in which case that's completely fine and I withdraw the suggestion. If it wasn't, though, I suggest:

On SOI as some may recall, the game was synced with the website in such a way that one could view all the helpfiles, craft listings, and one's mudmail from the website, without having to be logged into the game. There are so many reasons why this was helpful, to name a few: you could look up helpfiles or craft listings when considering new character concepts (this is the biggie for me), you could look up helpfiles to assist others (or just answer those burning questions in your mind) while not able to be logged into the game, you could check/respond to mudmail while not on a computer with your MUD client (without having to fight with telnet or whatever), the mudmail interface was much friendlier for drafting mail than the game interface is.

There was also a handy interface on the website for submitting crafts and objects, which I used a lot.

Also, it was really, really nice to be able to view craft listings (although they didn't show the materials printout) for all the crafts in the game, which I'm not sure is possible on PRPI at all.

Anyway, I don't know if this is viable or desirable to others, but I think it would be awesome.

The main problem with all of this is that I'm not a web designer. While I could easily write a page that displays any of these things, it'd probably be ass ugly. In terms of crafts, though, I can make a post listing all available crafts. I'll do that now.

That is completely understandable, I suck at graphic design, too. Maybe the helpfiles could be added to the wiki eventually?
