mebejoe So, I belong to that discord, and fund a bunch of scripts. Even so, I support the idea of a voting system here on SLR. The scripters I have spoken to say that when they choose to script something, They often think about the revenue that said script will generate for them on SLR, as well as what people are donating. So, as the customer service folks around here have also pointed out, some indication of the demand for the script here on SLR would also help get it done.
Further, although I love those scripters and know they work very hard to produce fabulous quality here, it does sometimes feel a little unfair to know that I pay for a script sub here, and a script pops up that all the other subs get to download as part of their package, but I know that a big part of the reason that they get to do that is because I paid a scripter 50, 75, or 100 dollars to make that one script happen (in addition to others, obviously). They are worth every penny, but just like they don't want to be shortchanged for their work, neither do I want to carry a lot of the burden for getting them done. The discord is nice, but frankly, there are perhaps a dozen or less members that actually contribute to script funding regularly.
Having script pooling or voting here might get a broader base of support going for the scripters and spread the cost around a bit better.
