Lol jk guys.

These topics can be annoying, but they aren't gonna stop.
And while we're at it, I push my breakthrough idea:
When starting a server, you can choose maps/shaders, and shaders are automatically disabled on player connection to a map-based server.

I know asking for maps is annoying, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't love skiing on a mountain I didn't have too build.:)

that's a nice suggestion and all, but badspot would have to haul a bunch of code to try to make the maps compatible with V21 and the shaders, so it probably won't happen anytime soon.

I don't think there should be a rule against it, they have the right to express how they feel about loosing maps, they just need time to realize they aren't coming back as of now, it'll probably never come back but one can hope.

Unfortunately there are people who no amount of time can do good for. Casually these are people who leave the game entirely, but some spam the forums not even saying "I wish we had maps" but "BRING BACK THE MADAFAKIN MAPS !!1!!!one!!!onety-one!" this is usually a RARE case that sends moderators a swingin' with the ban hammers.

Warning - while you were typing a new reply has been posted. You may wish to review your post.

These will topics not stop, they will continue to be posted again and again. They may die out for a bit, but eventually in the future someone's going to come back and post "man looking back i WISH we had maps again!" or something along the line.  Until there's a good substitute for terrain, people are going to continue asking for maps back, because they could cover things more efficiently than our current bricks can.

and why should we let them continue to bring it up? i say the topics just get deleted upon creation because we don't touch on anything new in the countless topics
everything thats needed to be said has been said and you can just visit blockos megatopic to whine some more there
Dillpickle:
What if baspot could send a message out, like a pop up next time you get on the forums to remind everyone that maps are gone for good? And for new players, they get the message when they join.
Randomness:
The last time I tried to make a topic like this (that went into great detail about why, and included many examples), some douche moderator locked the topic and I never got a word back about who or even why. Twice.

They are against topics like this. Ones that try to stay or get pinned at least.
