I wish HTC would run a free-account program for people who add to this game with the tools provided/etc.

HTC keeps pretty high standards with anything that will be "game content". I can see a lot of people trying to get there "xxxxxx" into the game and having it denied due to poor quality. It may be as good as the player can do, but not be good enough for the game. Then all HTC will hear is the whining about them playing favorites and so on.

Those that wish to add to the game do and they do it for free.

Now as a reward to those that contribute, how do you know if they do or dont get free months now and then?

In a way they do.

I was offered a position by HTC to the official skinning team, but I declined so that I could concentrate on my skin projects at my own pace.

Event CM's all have free accounts for their service.

I assume the Terrain team has a similar deal.

The point is anyone can contribute to the game, and those who consistently produce quality skins or terrains/ meet the standards for the CM team will indeed be rewarded.

But there is an internal vetting process one must pass first.

Even if i would (which I am not), I find the current strat game rather pointless.

I fully agree with you on that. I also want the city strats back.

This is just a hope that a community grows from input into the game and that said community helps sustain the growth of the game around HTC's work.
