    Well, I'm leaving this site or at least a very long break until the people that have caused this **** off.
    Ever since I came here I've tried to be a very friendly community member. Always courteous, always thankful. I often praised peoples work and gave out plenty rep to people who helped me. I even offered to make an official CG Podcast that Robbie gave the go ahead, but I decided to cancel it because I didn't feel like making a podcast showcasing other peoples work when around the same time people found it acceptable to derail my Udun thread.
    So here comes some truth. I think each map I've made was better than the last, up until Ganithes. That's when things started to go downhill. Whatever, not every map can be better than the last, and hey, to be honest, it's still better than most of the maps on CG. Look at certain peoples 'work', all they do is copy paste images from google. Clichea started to get lots and lots of attention and ever since then people have acted differently to my threads. Jelously, perhaps. Then I made Udun, and people derailed the thread. Everyone then joined the lotr bandwagon so eager to outshine what I started they couldn't help themselves from posting about it in my actual thread. I leave the forum for a while and occasionally pop up asking a few questions here and there and receiving answers all of which I was grateful for. I leave the forum for 2 weeks and work on a map I'm really proud of and still I'm met with very little enthusiasm. I used to get more from lesser maps when I started out. For crying out loud one of my early maps has stamp mountains and it got a decent amount of feedback. Perhaps I should be posting maps that take very little effort as that seems to be what gets the most attention here. I don't know what it is you people are trying to prove by ignoring my stuff. I've done nothing to deserve this. So now I'm going to be blunt. The map of Thyandul is better than most things on the forum. It's better than Max's shire map...look at his hills compared to mine. Mine are so much more detailed. I commented on the shire map yet max only commented on my thyandul map so he could agree with tianotim, he wouldn't have posted otherwise. Va'dum deserved to be a CG's choice map but they won't put anything different up there or anything that has a bit of originality, it's all the same brown coloured maps over and over again. Oh and btw, Chick thinks that Max is arrogant and agrees with me that he thinks he's the best thing to happen to ever happen to maps. Well he's not, almost every map me makes looks the same as the others. Try doing something different. Oh and by the way Max, it's very clear to see how much you bump your threads. Let them die for gods sake. It's not the end of the world if one of your maps falls off the front page. Chick messaged me to say that he/she thinks Max tries to look like he's helping when infact he doesn't really say anything. Chick told me not to say because he/she has already been banned once. I find it laughable the amount of people that were giving me advice on commissions that shouldn't even be getting commissions in the first place. I'm looking at you, TimPaul, I wouldn't commission a map from you if it was free and I don't see why anyone would get a map from you, they already have acsess to MS Paint. Is this a joke? http://www.timpaulmaps.com/wp-conten...Dreamlands.jpg

I've almost had it with this site, and I'm pretty close to just stopping posting because it's pointless now. 2 weeks I worked on this and because it's not overly colourful (like that's actually a bad thing, plenty of people post less colourful stuff than mine... THIS HAS COLOUR) and it looks a bit flat it's like it's not welcome here. Well guess what, it's better than most of the **** that's posted here. My hills are better than your hills on your Shire map, Max.
    If you intend to **** everyone off here you are definitely one the right track.

    So basically you're asking for comments but seems to get ****ed off when we offer some? I don't understand your point here.
    As a personal note, there's probably a looooot of better hills than my Shire's hills I didn't do the Shire map to compete with anyone and I don't really care that one's hills or one's forests, or one's icons are better. Of course there's a lot of stuff around that's better than mine. Come on, grow up.

    I don't think anyone here can decide which map deserves feedback or not. You seem to have a high esteem of your maps value, that's fine but there's no need to call other works s****. It's been several times that your attitude isn't respectful on these forums Sarithus. This should stop. The Guild is a friendly place and if you don't feel well here and think that the forums/posting/feedback system isn't good in your opinion, no one force you to go on posting.

    One clearly sees who is arrogant here and who is disrepectful toward the other Guild's members. We read enough stuff like this, this thread is now locked.

    I stand behind this thread being locked. I'm going to issue sarithus a 3 day ban at the moment and contact him via email to discuss things. We've had a lot of problems with this kind of mentatlity lately, and I really do wish to see it stopped. I built this site with the intent of everyone being friendly, helpful, like family, and courteous to each other without the need for constant moderation.

    The community leaders are volunteers and this site has been 100% free for you all other than the much appreciated donations. To see some folks turning it to this kind of attitude grieves me a great deal. I stand behind my community leaders and know that they are human and will respond to situations as humans do, and I hope that from here on out rather than airing things to the public like this and tarnishing the nature of this community, everyone else can begin to do a little more self moderation like it used to be.
