    Why do people feel the need to post maps without pictures? I'm talking about people who know they need pictures, yet they decide to post their map and then put on pictures in a few hours when they get home or get on their Xbox. Why?
    Do you think that an extra hour or two makes a difference in how many people will download your map? I mean, I think less people download maps that don't have pictures, and saying 'I'll upload them in a little bit' doesn't change peoples' opinions.

    Well the map threads without pictures get more attention, and more posts than the ones with pics. The one I recently posted I had plenty of pictures and explanation, yet I still found it on the second page just one day in. Yet a map that has no pics gets bumped for hours until they update pics, and when they do all those same people come back and post again. Maps from a week ago get spammed with "you should interlock" once they finally post their pics.

    Ya I see where you are coming from. They automatically think that you will download their map even if they don't upload pictures. No one really downloads the map untill they see pictures of it. Because if you download something you dont know what it looks like, and it turns out like crap, well its simply a waste of time.

    You must hate the Far Cry 2 map posts.

    But yeah, you I think that if map posts do not include pictures without good reason, they should be deleted. It's stupid to have to describe your map with words, and it doesn't take that long to upload pictures (or read the guides on how to upload pics).
