I've been following this discussion about the mission naming convention for a while now, it's time to reply.
The past few years I've made some SP missions for OFP, didn't want to make MP missions as I find that testing them is a lot harder to do. And I enjoy trying to create a good storyline for my missions, wether I succeed in that is not the point
.
Most people following the discussion on the official forums have probably heard of the unwritten rules of MP names. I didn't read the forums before ArmA came out, that's why I've never heard of these unwritten rules on mission names.
To get to the point, I think that you should also try to reach mission makers outside the official forums. So after thinking about these rules, they have to be made clear to a lot of editors. The official forums are one thing, but there are numerous people finding the official forums boring (in the past few months I, again, find the BIS forums to become a bit boring) or have another reason not to check them. If you want to make a mission naming convention, you should make it widely accepted by all the fansites. News items should appear on almost all famous OFP/ArmA websites. And the rules should be easy to follow and implement, or a tutorial / instruction has to be written.
I hope that there will be a widely accepted naming convention in the future, but I just want to remind you guys that it's really hard. To illustrate that I mentioned myself not having heard of it despite my five years of playing/mission making in OFP.
