So I'm wondering why you didn't use the might search functionality to do scientific research on whether this topic has been discussed already, because if you would have one of your conclusions would've been that it has indeed been discussed already, and nothing ever came from it. Hypothesises about what could be the cause of this generally can be summarized as "the skill:interest ratio is too low".

Azure moon (dedicated server project, again, search) probably came closest, but I'm not sure whether that is still actively developed.
