To be honest, I think the player submission thing is a crap idea. For one, I'm pretty sure one of the main reasons Zone is dead is because it doesn't have any style whatsoever. How will this idea help with that issue, other than throwing that issue away to ignore it? I just don't think it's a realistic thing to do. Also, this idea can really backfire once the server comes to rely on players so much. Before the implementation of this idea, I think any possible outcome should be analyzed thoroughly in order to create solutions as a backup sort-of plan.

This is probably the most crucial fact of practically any artform, including video games.
