Open Market items are always getting made, right. But the problem is hunting for them.

's writer was the one I think who had a bit of a solution by making a short list a while back on a blog, but I don't remember that to well.
What I am talking about is a dedicated section that has links to all open market or otherwise somehow free items, or the ability of writers to create individual threads in this section that they have to update on their own initiative with their own open market canon creations, rather than depend on a judge to arrange the links.
This idea, I feel, would be a massive quality of life improvement, not just for current members, but newer ones, who would want to just find subs to basically pick up and go rp with, without the hassle of creating one on their own. It would also serve as a primer for new members on how subs work with an easy to understand section of the site
This would be different from the Marketplace, which Contains a mix of open and closed subs (and arguably still has some elements of roleplay given the interaction I have witnessed. I'm not attempting to circumvent the necessity of the market place). This section would be created solely as an option for individual Members to post their open market sub lists only on their own initiative, so not only do subs that might otherwise be used by only a few people gain greater observation, increasing the chances of use, but it helps new players find their footing faster and encourage them to try making their own subs.
