ThorbenBAMF 18 Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) So I've heard that people disapprove of other server's using the OB maps which I don't get. There's a lot of banners, IP's and tons of other stuff witch is an advertisement for the OB server. So I don't get why the maps aren't allowed for other servers. It should bring more people to our server and to our community. I get that the map makers maybe gets frustrated for working on something and now pretty much everyone can have it. But face it... It's a map. You can't keep a map private in CSS. That's ridiculous. Edited July 26, 2012 by Guest Share this post Link to post
blaster28310 0 Posted July 26, 2012 i can see your point of view but those maps could be exclusive to our server and so more ppl would cojme on because we have the maps they cant get anywhere else Share this post Link to post
ThorbenBAMF 18 Posted July 26, 2012 We have a bunch of maps and there shouldn't be a problem sharing them with other servers. Even though the maps won't be as exclusive more people will know the OB community. Share this post Link to post
Shadow 0 Posted July 26, 2012 witch | map makers maybe gets frustrated | You can keep a map private in CSS. That's ridiculous. If they don't wish to share it, leave it like that. Their map, their decision. Share this post Link to post
ThorbenBAMF 18 Posted July 26, 2012 It gets shared the moment you enter the server and download the map. Share this post Link to post

Eagle (inactive) 0 Posted July 26, 2012 Your apparently a part of this community so you should be siding with the community you are in and not trying to steal maps for another community. Kriss and Mclovin didn't make these maps so that other people could be lazy and use them they made them so that the players who play on the OB benefit from the time and effort they put into a map and let them enjoy it knowing the fact that no other server will have this map making it part of the OB experience want the training camp map go fine the original and edit it for yourself. this map is exclusive to OB ( the community you are part of) don't like that fact then leave OB.

McLovin 4 Posted July 27, 2012 May I add that Gumzter is also in Guardian hence why hes acting this way. Share this post Link to post
Kriss 35 Posted July 27, 2012 Also im gonne add why its not for public, there are a few reasons. 1. Custom textures i dont give credit for, if communities take the map i will get the blame for not crediting the stuff i use. 1. It was made for community in mind. 3. You speak like you think i dident spend anytime building the maps, weeks vent into making those maps and therefore its satisfying to only use it only for community use. We can discuss this over steam if you want. end. Share this post Link to post
