That's why I don't think number 2 is really a good option either. I think of the like / dislike system like a song rating system for your music library. It's all YMMV territory. Someone rating a song 1 out of 5 stars doesn't mean that song sucks. So y'all haters should grow a pair and deal with it.

Just because we don't agree with your handling of bad maps. You're awesome. Let's get this thread back to reports about maps with bugs or other issues. Talk about what you want to do with other bad maps here: https://mrgreengaming.com/forums/topic/19395-poll-what-to-do-about-bad-maps/

There have been some discussions recently about the vast amount of bad maps on both the mix and race servers (but mainly race). So, what should we do? Cast your vote in the poll for this thread. Keep in mind that whatever gets the most votes may still not be done at all, as it is up to those higher up than me to actually go through with it. Description of Options Remove ALL maps that have more dislikes than likes. This includes maps where they might just have a single dislike more than likes. Remove maps ONLY if they have a lot more dislikes than likes. To create a baseline /standard limit, we can look into creating a ratio of likes:dislikes based on the number of times a map was played. Deal with the bad maps. Like the poll said, life isn't fair, and neither are all game servers. If you come across a lot of maps that you don't like, then perhaps you can learn to play and deal with them like the other players instead of complaining in the chat or going AFK until the map is over. Other. If you have a different idea, then say so below. I personally voted for number 3. There are a number of maps that I've come across with more dislikes than likes that I actually liked, and I'd be disappointed if they ended up being deleted. And instead of crying and complaining about maps that are bad (which I admit that I have done every so often), I just deal with it and play through them with the others.

You haven't even proposed a solution but have implied that you just want them all gone in one big batch. I've given multiple suggestions, one of which you could try right now (which was to deal with it and learn to play the maps like everyone else).

What do you want me to say? "Delete all the even remotely shitty maps just to shut wooziee the fuck up." Better? Is that what you want? Because that seems like what you want. I've been on the race server way more than mix lately, and I haven't seen much to make me come here and constantly complain.

You're also right -- there are multiple options. Like you said, maybe they go to another server. Or like I said, maybe they don't think the maps are bad enough to come here to register, but they still stay on a MGG server. In any case, not enough people are complaining, so...

Right, so maybe they don't think all the crappy maps are even enough of an issue to register here and bring it up.

Currently, there are just three people (you, Megaz and neox) who are quite against the quality of maps. So, unless there are many more who are equally as annoyed, things probably won't change. Just continue reporting maps that you feel are bad, and describe detailed, meaningful issues that you were having.

I'm not on race as much as before mix came around, but when we are both there, that's what I always observe.

So you're saying it's not fun now... You only care about tops anyway. Even on a good map, if you crash, you give up.

#Boom

If they're that easy / crappy to where the author can get an easy top 1, then anybody should be able to set a top. I'm all for bitching and moaning, but it's a big enough issue. Learn to play the maps instead of AFK'ing instantly after crashing once.

You could, you know... Deal with it and play them? Set new tops on those instead. I can understand if all of the maps were crappy Pachanga maps, but most aren't to that level of crappiness.

Even maps like those should be evaluated privately by admins, even if it loses by just one admin vote.

Idea: Create a map testing server. Each week, all uploaded maps will be placed there. Rely on likes / dislikes to determine what should stay. If it's 50-50 (or a very close vote overall), then the decision should be placed in the hands of admins. Easy, fair, and should eliminate shitty maps from being uploaded to the public race / mix servers. On the note of shitty maps, maps with far more dislikes than likes should be up for deletion. BinSlayer once said that shitty maps must complement the good ones, which I never agreed with. Why deal with crap if you don't have to?

If you donate, you're not obligated to receive anything in return. I LOL'd at the two "you already disliked this map" messages.

Throwback to Hipnoze. You can see some old names in the video.

I'm a yes so it would be 8-5.

I thought I had mod rights here (to move posts into a new thread), but I guess not. Y'all should move that discussion to a different topic.

♫ Capsize, I'm first in the water... Too close to the bottom... ♫ Anyway, I like the idea. I originally voted no and it won't let me change to yes, so 8-7 :).

That's why you be nice to the new players and get to know them :). I just see things differently but I find both servers to be as fun as they always are. Sure, some of the recent maps that have been added aren't that great, but there are still plenty of good ones. So: I like r0ck's idea of having a gamemode focus specifically on DM|Race maps in mix.

IWFMD technically isn't a DM as it was never made to have a hunter part at the end, so it's just a regular map that happens to be very technical.

I see. I think the name of your mode is what threw me off as parkour didn't really fit. Perhaps call it "DMR" - "Deathmatch: Race."

DM maps in mix are marked as RTF maps, so only one person will finish. That's not fun if you move all DM maps from race to mix.
