i agree with datel: jwer has good ideas.
mappers (especialy newer ones) work on their maps long time so they get used to their map and think its better than it is, overvalue it. so they phantasie comes to a hold, and most of jwers idea either help the map or the mappers phantasy. (for me that is)
hes also right about a mapper comes home and sees 20 replies so (all of em think their maps are far from worthy) there might be some great suggestions, and reading 20 times "looks nice" takes the piss.
active X? every thought of that: when ballistic and bridge were created this forum or similar large As forums did not exist. and mapping in general was not as popular and wide-spread.
i also dont think that one could say the maps are by jan. snowdunes is an exception there i think (with many of mutts maps because they have a close contact) other mappers implement not only his ideas but all decent suggestions (if there are any) but to a very great extent its the mappers ideas that make a map unique and good OR BAD.
hes an experienced player and puts more time into helping mappers with their maps than any other person ive met here. only few people in general post constructive comment.
so those of you who like a map or dont wanna say they dont, might better think of sugegstions to convince others instead of flaming those who post soem comment, although jwers tone was harsh but he can also be amazed about maps if parts are well done.
so in this regard hes a very honest criticist.
but ok no more
now and carry issues with jwer to anyother thread in chitchat pls. this is cyps thread and by posting it he shows us that he needs help.
