One thing I've seen in many of the other forums I frequent, are stickied threads with useful (usually crunch) resources. Things like sample PCs, theoretically optimized PCs, neat combos, stuff like that. It makes sense that this forum doesn't have that (given the small size when compared to goliaths like the D&D forum, or many of the Warhammer forums), and the open ended nature of PC building in SR.
Still, for new players (or even veterans, or DMs looking to help/hinder their players), it'd be awesome to have a reference thread to check out how to *really* make an unkillable troll, or what a solid street-sam can look like.

Maybe there could be a section just for combos, and equipment.
There'd have to be some sort of standard, which would most easily be a legal starting character. But you'd also want a few maxed out builds to show if a physad really is better than a streetsam after infinite karma.

It'd of course be hard to organize, because of the huge variety of options, but having a place where forum goers to go and see what the real capstone for various areas is would be very useful.



Also, and this is a very D&D thing, but is there some standard for judging damage output? An equation for measuring DPR? If not, it would not be hard to put one together, and it would be a very useful thing.



Is this the sort of thing that the community is interested in? Would it get stickied and updated as new builds get put together, and old ones tweaked?
