Hey guys, it's been a while since I've logged in here and it's looking pretty barren. It seems like the popularity system has just completely turned some of the most avid mappers off from mapping. I'm not really surprised that all of the happy thoughts and unicorn farts haven't gotten anywhere. It seems to me like, Blizzard, in following with their new MO of "screw the community, lets just make profits" has no intention of changing anything. I believe they want mappers to forget about mapping so there are no significantly established maps around when the market place is launched so there's no real competition for their craptastic Blizzard DotA.
Someone please give me some hope. I was playing some of my old maps the other day and would like to get back to them, but not for nothing...
HotS has several planned updates that will seriously help out mappers.Not sure if you were here for that or not....
Regardless, we're still alive and moving alone :P You can be assured that HotS and the marketplace will inject some new life, but we have plenty of people here still.

Yeah, they are definitely working on it; but heh you can rest for now.
Weird thing is at LANs my friends and I still play war3 custom maps... almost 0 desire to play sc2. Hopefully that changes in the coming months-years.
