Hello moderators, I'm Ace Of Arrows, known by a fair number of people in the past as "Ace Of Hearts." I've been a stepartist since 2008 and have produced 15 simfile packs to date with work progressing on a 16th pack as we speak.
I'd love nothing more than to make this request in the official category request thread, but it's locked. So initially I'd taken to PMing Al, who granted my request for a single Category. However, I discovered packs are by Category (and are not organized within Categories), and quickly revised my request so as to get what I then knew I needed. However, it's been multiple days this time and he's not responded.
It's possible that's because I need a total of 16 Categories, which I'd easily imagine would take any moderator aback.
In the almost 11 years I've been a stepartist, I've written over 200 simfiles, and if it's necessary as evidence that I actually require as many Categories as I'm requesting, I've got my own website on which I traditionally offer my simfile packs. I'd love to be able to put my content on Zenius in a properly-organized manner as well, partly as another option to offer on my website, but also partly because of the apparent recent demise of R21Freak. I believe strongly in simfile pack preservation, and these days options for long-term archiving on websites such as this one are practically non-existent.
If my request is to be granted, I'll need the following:
* Rename my single existing Category to "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 01 - Gear Up!" so it's a pack name and not a stepartist category name.
* 14 additional Categories for other packs I've already made, named as follows:
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 02 - Kickin' It Old-School"
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 03 - My Heart, Your Arrows"
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 04 - Tough Love"
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 05 - Love is Contagious"
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 06 - Blunt Honesty"
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 07 - Just Another Lovely Day"
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 08 - Deceived by Adoration"
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 09 - Heartful Transition"
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 10 - Reaffirmation"
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 11 - Dawn of a New Age"
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 12 - Unstoppable Love Power"
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 13 - One for Love and Love for All"
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 14 - The Definition of Fun"
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 15 - A Gift From Ace With Love"
* And one Category for the pack I'm currently working on:
> "Ace Of Arrows Vol. 16 - Full Circle"
That would cover every pack I've ever made and the upcoming one I'm working on so that I can get to work on uploading without having to worry about further approvals. I thank you in advance for your time and paying attention to my probably rather insane-sounding request.
To anyone else around here who might actually recognize me, I'll just write a short blurb here to cover that. Hi guys! Yes I'm still around, yes I'm still active both in the playing and writing capacities, and assuming I get my Category requests filled, I'm sure we'll be talking a lot more about my work once I can finish uploading it here and make an actual simfile release thread that'll cover my first 15 packs. Things have come a long way in nearly 11 years.
>>Edit-In: Okay, apparently I'm blind. It's no WONDER the Simfile Discussions version of the category request thread is locked, because I overlooked the fact that there's an entirely different subforum revolving around requests. Which I somehow managed not to see. For like 5 days. So focused was I.
Hopefully my request will still be granted anyway, but I understand entirely if my thread is moved to the actually-appropriate place, or locked, or deleted.
Forgive me for my oversight.

I should do that for expedience sake. A moderator can lock or delete this thread, or whatever they feel is necessary.
