Bungie.net : Community : Forum Topic Listing : Forum Reply Listing

This Map entry is kinda different from most...This map is a Spiritual Successor because I been forging this map since I first start forging ... I learned how to interlock and lay boxes strait... off of it... I failed Horrible in the first version and ... Now with the time of 8 months I have came back to the first Map I ever forged and Finally have a map that people like and enjoy. The First build was set up to be casual as well Aesthetic I have turned the tables and made it fit all 3. I can openly say It takes from the feel of Estates(the one made for IN the shadows) and brings a new twist to it... I can say its a very complex Aesthetic build which looks more and more pleasing and I can toss in for good luck a Vent shaft over the top.

If you look at the old version you would feel its an old map needing to be redone very similar to Gridlock and Gridlocked... and with that you have even better maps...!

Enough of the old ...! Now to the new... I have a massive map with warthogs and ghosts but also have it small enough for teleporters to work. I have a Dump truck, an Elevator, and 6 rooms.

50 pages to wade through ... of corruption.

Page 50
-database errors
-TGIF issue
-map review team
-FH Tag poll
-Who is loyal
-members first map

Page 50 is pure all topics are about the community or site errors. Thou those errors could be brought up in the tech support section of the site some times it is understandable to hide those threads from the public. To fix with out seeming DUh moments.

Page 49 bothers me .. it shows how the hubpub builds in chatting to each other not because they are not allowed to be friends but in the fact that they are all sharing ideas and cutting out the community in it. Some threads are about the site but the majority of the discussion here is towards Hey HOW Can I change things to play in here and be with you guys.

"I'm posting here so it doesn't get Spammed" That is quote worthy of why it was done but ... I debate is cutting off a forge community in the lack of faith some one would/could offer a new idea to those questions? In one perticular tread it talked about DUMMING items which could have been the thread that could have brought Ghost merging years ago.

So we have some shity threads as well a few but not all so compelling threads in the pub. These comprised of threads of business like who is doing what when... good go and do them. The few threads that were useful was 1. FEATURED map standerizing which made it so that the site was to follow an time set to posting maps. and for how long. Quite nice seeing how we can expect a feature every thursday! The only cost was this is 3 months of little to no other improvement to the site.

So you start to see a need for the staff to handle the numbers pouring into to the site. THe problem is the hubpub attracts shitting converstion at the same time all the serious chatter is going on which can both distract as well avoid certain members to pay attention and actually help improve the group.

So seems like the community is diving into creative tools to use in the thread.... well I do not see so much the community using these tools as apose to the moderators/staff section. Which is fine we teach our friends how to draw better than stangers. The only conflict is your aiding towards better looking Map posts by color members over regular members.PS that was the time frame i join the pub.

It is iteresting to note that the few spam threads are totally off in a direction not related in how this site operates or to improve it. I'm fine with relating to each other but it is friendships that are business related and those that make true friendships. If this was made open to the general discussion or offtopic. THe reason is that the hubpub isn't for the community not because we are TOO big but that the hub views it as immature. Giving them an option to hide in the hub to have these converstation is allowing the immature to remain... which is why the immature are still here.

So Maps maps maps... it was about maps but more directly colored members maps already exculsive and showing a new cycle of Staff/colored map features back to back. This is the primed example of corruption in the hub. It is in the past but many of the results of this era is still a prime example at the moment.

Featured suggestions are wonderful... makes the loyals feel apart of the map process as well catching maps possibly lost. The problem is some feature recomened in this era are ignored because they are to old. That is underminding the use of the loyal. Which in turn take the vaule/usefulness of the loyal to nothing.

So we have a good mention of people wanting to help the community tgif as well threads showing the need to fix things in the pub/forums as a whole but we also have some threads for personal use. I feel if we moderated those out to the site we would have bolsterd the forum in having better organized lists of DEsired like we have now. BOOK of conquest/Asset maps/Swat/ so on so forth...instead we keep it here and it died here.

I'm also looking as if the two threads are two different communites which in the point of view corruption is when both are not of the same mind and though. What do you think the term Cheating on your wife comes from? Hubpub was cheating on the community.
