make 2^this
a custom "mod" section, and a custom map section
then we can tell the dumbass i want X gun people to post in the right section
I think that if people have a section where they can speak their minds and get ideas out there that they have in their heads that it makes them feel like they are a part of the community even if they don't have much else to contribute. I see no harm in having the section and if you don't like it you can just ignore its existence.
Just my thoughts; the powers that be are welcome to do what they want and I will not complain either way.
But yes, posts that are just weapons lists are uncalled for and are probably just trolls.

I want to keep the custom map ideas section, but I'd like it if we added like a "format" to it for posting. This would at least encourage people to fill in blank spaces that say stuff like "Story" and "Map Description." Maybe all of the blanks have to be filled before you can post too. There are some great, well-thought out ideas out there but then we get stuff from people like connor and... :please:Spoiler: click to open...:troll:
It would make sorting out the idiots at least a little faster and then it might encourage them to actually read it. Even put in basic responses like showing that there's a limit to the number of weapons and general sizes of maps.Jokes aside He's right. There should atleast be 2 forums with a quick mod (for newer-1st posters) and Detailed posts for More veteran posters and unlocks for posters when they have more than 100-150 posts

I just think it needs more moderation. Posts that are just lists, or are ridiculously long and elaborate, should be deleted by mods. Although, and I've said it before in multiple threads, I think the whole site needs tougher moderation and this would just be part of it. I mean I like the mods we have now, I just think it should be site policy to enforce stricter rules.We already have a zero-tolerance policy? Are we gonna go negative now? Also, I vote against a maximum character limit because, if someone reaches the maximum character limit, then they most likely have more to say which provides more details to anyone that might take up the project. I mean, I don't read Smith or connor's posts, but I certainly appreciate the lengths of detail they go into to show that they at least care about their ideas.
Introducing a list of necessary queries to be filled out when making a post (as someone suggested above) would also be a massive improvement, especially with a MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM character limit.

I really like this section because some really cool maps have sparked from it

Connor sure showed you! I bet none of these maps will be trendy and have NSZ weapons when they come out :nyan: :nyan: :nyan:I hope not. Those weapons are shit. Even rorke has done better than tha--- oh, hi nate.

Can you please name one? I'm struggling.i was bout to say that exact same answer

He asked for maps that were sparked from the section, not your shabby ideas. :please:
It usually takes me weeks (rarely months) to propose these Ideas, Thanks. :D
We can't just "ignore" everything - to some extent you guys should do something about it too
I go that far. The map ideas are like books and arent worth reading. I may get 5 sentences in before I quit reading :lol:
That's a terrible analogy :please: I would say the map ideas are more like your first crushes as a young teenager.
You catch a glance at the hottest girl in your school (you see Leviathan gameplay on youtube), and then become infatuated with her, thinking about all the things you could enjoy together.
Then you realise she's not the only hot girl (there are other great maps!), and so begins your horny teenager phase in which you become so obsessed with the hot girls that you start staring at them in class (lurking the forums), trying to catch a glance of the goddess.
Eventually your testosterone gets the better of you and you decide to take a leap of faith - you ask one of them on a date (suggest an idea). You're just an awkward nerd so you never had a chance, so it goes one of two ways: either she lets you down easy ("sorry man this isn't really possible with engine limits") or she spits laughter in your face and announces your pathetic attempt to the whole school ("are you fucking serious with these weapon mod fantasies connor?").
Either way you are crushed and you spend the remainder of your lonely, pathetic school life thinking all hot girls are cunts (thinking forums don't like any new users), without realising the bigger issue - you can't take care of a beautiful girl if you can't even take care of yourself first (you can't be the source of great ideas until you learn to bring those ideas to life yourself).
Whew, got carried away there, totally not speaking from experience. Fuck you Rachel you shallow bitch
That's a terrible analogy :please: I would say the map ideas are more like your first crushes as a young teenager.Everything you said was like rainbows coming out of Ron Jeremy's pants. Ok, so I'm not good with analogies either, but what you said was spot on.
The section itself is just entirely worthless. If I am making a map, I want it to be my/my teams original idea. People who are coming up with ideas don't even know the tools half the time. It is doomed to be a section for stupid requests
Fuck you Rachel you shallow bitch
