If it's that simple, why does it need a forum for it's self?
Because it's not simple.
In fact, while it IS very powerful, and some who knows it well (which to be honest, no one know's Clod's FMB well yet, 'cos it's not finished) can produce astonishing results, it bears the same relation to a worthwhile content editor for gamers to use as Notepad has to a proper CMS system.
Yes, you can write a simple home page with Notepad. Yes, you "could" write Technet with notepad. But you wouldn't, and people don't.
Simply put, the FMB interface and documentation is awful. It always was. It's just that with a total lack of content or a dynamic mission engine we feel the true and utter awfulness of the FMB more than ever.
Seeing as the game lacks so much content I really think that the FMB forum is the one place it would be worthwhile for 1C to invest in a more tangible presence, helping thier customers supply content they themselves were too lazy or short sited to make.
