Do you not use POM forums anymore because they've been taken over by porno spamming bots?

[Alyss]

Can you please delete all **** maps . And is it normal that we have same factions for like 4 maps ?

Sorry Snazzy- I do not have any affiliation to those sites. It is unfortunate to hear.

Zacty-- you could be right.

Alyss-- Can you please identify which maps are the **** maps?
         
          We will look into increasing faction rotation. Thanks for the feedback.

 

[Alyss]

I dont know the names of the maps but its like 70% of the maps ...

Hmmm.. can you be more specific on why certain maps are not conducive?

and possibly-- a description of which maps are fueling your concern/frustration?

Thanks!

 

[Alyss]

Unbalanced maps ( too much spots for archers or not enough)

 

[Zacty]

maps not in current rotation? I don't mind seeing old maps from like 2013 and 2014 but there's a reason a lot of those maps aren't used any more.

 

[Alyss]

playing on maps with 80 spots for archers is boring

2. Thou shall not purposefully prolong rounds 
What if ur trying to save ur good gear when ur whole team runs into death (but not me cus im best new na) and instead of 1v12ving  you hide it out in order to save ur money (im also best tactician na so this is valid)
     
3. Thou shall not abuse your fellow players or discriminate on any grounds

This is an extremely broad rule and should be removed altogether. For example; what if I was discriminating against a bunch of players (on the ground that they are noobs) by killing them over and over without fail as soon as the round starts and they considered that "abuse"

Or for example, if I discriminate against a really good player(on the grounds that they are a skilled player) (like myself im best na) by telling everyone to avoid him(there are no females in this community we all know this)

Or for example if I was a noob (which im not im best na) and I complained of discrimination in an obnoxious way to intentionally elicit responses and then screenshot them and post them to the forum as evidence of wrongdoing on my accusers

Or for example a bunch of mormons decide to get on the server trying to solicit people into their 'religion' but then nobody on the server decides to join their 'religion' so they complain of discrimination

Or for example if i'm a fedora wearing satanist on the server (cus im cool and stuff) and I use my supreme redditoor logic to dismantle the arguments of these mormons (im edgy) would I be considered the one being discriminated against (since they came to the server with their inferior non reddit approved stone age beliefs) or would I be considered the one doing the discriminating (which is wrong since im a white night champion of the people and savior of women milady)

Thank you,

What is the "current rotation"? The reason most maps are old is that those are all the maps I've found.  I'm responsible for the map rotation and the overall server set up. I welcome constructive feedback about the maps and the server settings. Some things we've been testing is shorter map times (first to 4 instead of 5) and no troop limits.

Some things that could help:
1. What are the maps that I don't have that I should? Links would help as I need the .sco file, the terrain code and some reason to believe the author allows to use the map. I was pointed at this topic (https://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,347436.msg8310399.html) as the latest list of competitive (?) battle maps, but many links there are dead/nonexistent.

2. What are the maps that should not be on the server? Keep in mind that everybody's map tastes are different. Also, I erred on the side of more variety as I was sick of playing the same map 2-3 times in one night on some of the other servers. That said, we have room to cut a few maps without making the rotation too short.

FYI, here's the current rotation:
New Port Assault
Ruins
Back to Back
FbtR
Battle for Hharkin
Reveran Village
Shariz Village
Sandiboush
Ruins Rebuilt
Swadian Town
Sea Raiders' Landing
Gold Rush
Solace
Mountain Fortress
Frosty Battle
Rock Port
Vendetta
Abbey
The Farm
Fort of Honour
Liberty
Frosthaven
Desolation Valley
Verloren
Castle Ruins
Dreieksdorf
Khudan Outskirts
Port Azur
Ismirala
Stronghold

At least half of these maps are very old or not very known thats probably why Alyss did not like them..
