As soon as I saw this thread I wanted to contribute some ideas, but you guys seemed to of hammered down everything already. You guys are awesome.

I don't understand the logic of limiting requests in this way. I see the appeal, because it will reduce the number of requests, and it will also meant that those that do decide to contribute will have their work appreciated much more accurately. But it's the people with artistic vision of a game but no programming experience that will need help the most. Plus you can't really enforce this.

Realistically in the world of game making no one wants to make 'your game' because they are busy making their own game. No one with the skills to program, sprite, model, or what ever sits around waiting for someone to come up with ideas. Ideas are honestly a dime a dozen and practically everyone has them. It's much better for an aspiring game designer to find a way they can contribute to their own game so others will take them seriously.
Now sometimes there are people with revolutionary ideas that are so fantastic that their creativity makes up for itself. This is rare however. I think people who want to start their own threads about their game idea should have to write a design document with vast detail of their vision.
