That's true, but what about a serverlist filter for servers that are
running custom maps?
I am sorry for the stupid request to break such maps, but it was the
only idea I got after I saw so many crappy maps.

If people don't like those maps, they'll leave the server. The server admin
will either shut the server down or remove the maps. If players like the
maps, they'll continue to play there.
If the maps are popular, there will still be people who don't like them
running servers which will stay free of those kinds of maps.
The issue will take care of itself. That's the magic of capitalism.

It's my personal opinion, yes. But I am not only a server admin, I am
also a player and I can see it at the horizon that it will end up like
in CSS with many crappy custom maps. And the point of back ported
textures makes it even more dramatic. As a player, I don't want to
play on such maps, because it just does not fit the style. Valve
wanted to keep the style and balance of the game as long as possible,
so they should do it with maps, too. Just my opinion.

Hmmm, sv_gravity is classed as a bug, lol? What great goodness
could come from allowing n00bs access to this variable? Back on
topic now - I think marc has a legit point.. new characters and
animations dont look right in ported maps like ctf_well for example. Its
a fortress forever map...
.02 cents...
BTW: they did jump right on the gunrunning exploit.. kudos to dev!

Subject: Re: [hlds] Please break custom maps that are using the EP2
engine
Then dont put them on the server. This list is getting petty. How
about we work on more important things like fixing bugs. Still waiting
for an answer on why we cant set sv_gravity.

Hello,
would it be possible to stop mappers from creating maps for TF2 by
using tools that port EP2 materials and models to EP1? I realy dislike
those custom maps, often they don't fit the game style and the
textures are not looking like the original ones.
Please force the mappers to wait for the real SDK, thanks.
Thanks
PS: I don't want any answers like: Let the mappers do what they want.
I just don't like the idea of having crappy maps around before the SDK
is even released.

Valve and Steam would not be what it is today if it were for ambitious
people that create custom maps/mods/skins/etc, just think thats how cs
and dod were before valve picked them up.
