A Petition for Mabination to have an MML Database/Library to the Tools Section

  As you know, a long time ago Nexon had an MML Library that was used quite frequently. However, with its abolishment, MML has become harder to maintain in a website. Many sites arose and fell consequently due to either a lack of community, administration, and popularity that is well known in the Mabinogi community.
  
  
  The following reason is why Mabination should have an MML Library:
  
  

  
  
  1. Music is part of Mabinogi, it is one of the key things that make Mabinogi unique from other MMOs. However, the way to program a music in MML format is very difficult for the common musician and makes finding favorite scores of MML harder. By having the MML Library added to the tools section, we can effectively cater to a part of the community that need musical scores to play.
     
     
  2. It will bring more traffic and consequently more membership to Mabination. What do I mean? A lot of people search for MMLs online and I wish for Mabination to be the top of the front page. Having these people come to this site for content is one of the driving factors that made Mabination the way it is today. Even I personally joined this site when I was looking for information and joined consequently because it was source of information and looking over the community demonstrated itself much better than the Nexon Forums.
     
     
  3. It will allow the growth and record of MML. While it consequently fits in alignment with number 1, this is unique in itself as that the truth that is that the creation of MML is in the hands of few individuals. By having a library, these individuals can take on requests, be acknowledge for their skills, and hopefully inspire them to create more MML which will make the songs in Mabinogi more diverse.
     
     
  4. Finally, future updates will bring this database to use. Especially with the Diva update coming up in a few months, it is expected that a lot of people will start searching for voice MMLs and this would be the perfect time to have a good library of songs so when the update starts, we can capture a good portion of the community and foster Mabination's growth.
     

• When the user clicks on the MML Library link, it should show a list, similar to the housing search which information such as the following: Music Name, Music Genre, Artist/Group Name, Composer Name, Rating, and for some reason the series where it came from (suggestion from a fellow user).
  
  
• When the user searches the song, multiple hits will be listed, same as housing with all the information entered shown. The line should be like: -Song Name- -Artist- -Series- -Composer Rank (Recommended) - Instrument - Ensemble (yes or no) - Composer's Name - - Rating-
  
  
• When the user clicks on a song name, it will bring up a page in which it will list each line individually... Line 1, Line 2, Line, and Line 4 (with voices). The same page will also display the information that was found in the search line. There will also be a section in which the composer may leave information to the user that may be useful in terms of playing it. There should also be a section where people may upvote (not downvote) a particular song to get traffic in. Comments should also be allowed in that page.
  
  
• Finally when the user likes the song, they can copy and paste each line individually or have a button added in which the user can click and it will automatically be copied to their clipboard for use in Mabinogi.
