So I imagine you might have better receptivity with the forum owners/managers if you posed the question a little differently perhaps.
Instead of asking "why not", you'd likely be perceived a little more positively if you kindly asked for it in a constructive and encouraging manner, articulating the benefits to the community, of focus on effects by FAS and the members here (as you are doing in your posts). Make the case, perhaps be willing to help in some manner (as many here do of their own initiative).
The title just needs tweaking bro. I’d change the “tone” a little to get more receptivity rather than looking at what’s not here, to what could be here and how awesome it would be for the community.
As I stated I primarily bought my axe for the effects, how they are managed and the crazy flexibility. If we could focus on effects blocks like we do with amps, it would be incredible. (The amps are so good now!)
Perhaps by me being new, I’ve missed the history of effects here at FAS so I may not fully understand FAS rationale for their position of supporting these key effects features.
I’m 100% behind the idea of a sub-forum dedicated to (and exchanging) FX blocks that emulate famous stomp boxes, racks in classic configs. We have some of that already, but more is mo’ betta IMO.
