That's patently untrue. There would be far more out there in terms of mods, utilities and games if people actually did something about their ideas rather than posting them up for someone else to do (which almost never happens).

Ahhhh I see. We are not talking about the same thing. Not quite anyway.
What you say is true.
IF every idea was tackled by the initial person and completed then there would be more. But that isnt very likely.
On the other hand, some of our best stuff would not have happened without someone bringing up the idea and someone else finishing it.
It wouldnt take many suggested-that-someone-else-finished to outnumber the number that were finished by a DIY response. My impression is that most of those simply died on the vine, or were sloppily done then taken up by someone else anyway.
Not to mention that some of the most interesting discussions on here would not have happened.
