I've been playing a while on your server and I have noticed some maps just really have nothing in it. Can we get rid of those maps?

For example helebat3... there's practically nothing to do, and what is the point of the map anyway?

Another example: trainride... what in the world is so fun about that map? I think totally none, there's only lame-age going on and stupid train riding.

Here we go again: fun. OK, what is so FUN about getting stuck? Or a train wich makes an annoying noise and splats you when you want to go through? Or if you want to do some mine-age and someone just blows it up?

I could go on, but the list will just grow longer and longer. The main point is: some maps are fun for a while and fun enough to stay in (IMHO), look at carnival2 or monaween... but those others are just horrible, disgusting, utterly lame. So I'm asking you: please remove the most annoying maps like fun and helebat and so on.

I must admit i do find some of these so called 'fun' maps completely void of fun and pointless. Saying that, you need to bare in mind that what you might find enjoyable others might not and vice versa, me, personally i enjoy maps that have a point to them i.e. mission based. Maybe a vote poll would be in order to find out what type of maps people really enjoy playing on the server ?

Well, that would create a quite large amount of threads don't you think? And besides... most of the players on the server do NOT go to the forum itself, let alone register for it to post anything.

In the quest to explore your going to hit rocks. I leave all working maps I find on there just because it helps give more variety to the vote list. Everyone has different tastes on their flavor of map, I do myself enjoy a few maps but also find some are annoying. Depending on who your on there with also can make a map look useless. Its like the train racing map, if it was just you and your friend it wouldn’t be so bad, having 10 players all trying to use 2 trains means 8 have to sit and watch and jump in front of it when it comes towards them at 80mph in some attempt to stop it :).

I’m not going to remove the maps, if they come on its been down to players voting them on as the default map rotation is all default maps, apart from Map Pack days (Tues and Fri). I can only suggest voting the map off if it comes on. You have access to two sets of votes, the one that comes with SC and also adminmods admin_vote_map mapname command.
