NO!

You are not permitted to unprotect protected maps just to upload them here on this side. The originally mapmaker may b dont want his map to be uploaded here or there r may b other reasons for protecting his map...

You and we all should respect the descisions of mapmakers when they dont want us to see their triggers!


//Edit: Even if I prefer unportected maps cuz otherwise u cannot learn anything :cry:

Welp yawn

Many want proteection and there ain't no stopping them until Blizz puts their footies down lol which it don't look like too soon and the fact is that websites like this one are a dime a dozen and in order to attract more people you need to kind of teach people the how's of doing things and not just make them go fish like the map faq and the battle.net forums do. I have posted a response to Darky's new suggestions post at the top of his webpage here suggesting for his site to have a special tutorials area where a section of instructions on how to use the elements provided in this website may be incorporated into maps, kind of like a FAQ but not a faq hehe. Also have some noble mapmakers provide the community the service of providing darky with some good basic to more advanced maps with text files to go along with them which would be unprotected for new users to open and read well documented triggers which could be explained in detail so that the mapmaking learning curve could be crunched. Such a section could catapult this website into the mapmaking faq.]

You realize I am not here to just break into people's maps and steal them. I like to edit maps I am permitted to and the map editor SAYS people are supposed to edit already existing maps to learn. So why not by all means let's be friends and work as a team rather than want to fear one another or whatever you call it bucco. Happy days are here again. You can call me the Fonze ehh.
