Hullo. I heard about this site off of TL and on a whim I decided to check it out today, despite knowing basically nothing about mapmaking.
I'm not sure if this has been suggested yet, but.. maybe it'd be a good idea to have one central thread for map ideas? The forum is cluttered with a bunch of threads like "New Map Idea Halo Starcraft" or this or this or this or.. you get the idea.
Granted, this opens up opportunities to get "your" map stolen, but some people just want to share ideas and don't ever intend to actually make the map they're suggesting. If people are concerned about the e-fame, well, I guess if someone takes their idea and makes a wildly popular map without crediting them they can join the games and proudly tell everyone that the original idea for the map was posted by them in this very forum.
Also, the posting quality here is lol. Exhibits A, B, and C. Are the mods here inactive or are the expectations just low?
