Well they've been in contact with the map community leaders (including me) from each of the major wc3 fan sites, and taking suggestions from them on which fan-made maps should be hosted. Looks like one of them liked Dota... :x

And where's wc3sear.ch's name? I don't even see us listed as wc3campaigns!

They never plugged Samods or The Hubb either

I'm happy with being kept in the category with Samods and the Hubb

The reason probably is because we have questionable content to the extreame. WoW models, NWN models, all that horrible plagerising in the icons section...

Well, you've become a known and well respected member of one of the largest ones, Werewulf. That should be worth something.

If you think there is something wrong with this site that needs to be fixed, feel free to bring it up. saying its going to burn and everyone is going to leave doesnt tell me much (that, or I should notify darky to start watching his mailbox for ticking packages). Feel free to IM or PM me if you don't want to talk here.

Its not to say Soul Chess wont be. I know for a fact they have several dozen maps lined up for spotlight...its just they are only showcasing 1 at a time.

@werewulf: What's this? pessimism makes you feel better? Hey, welcome to the other half of mankind! :D

VGSatomi, can you tell me which ones you submited so I don't submit ones you already did, Soulchess was on my list as we run their forums.

Yeah I know but... Should have been Soulchess first as in my opinion its one of the best maps made for Warcraft 3. But ofc dota always wins as it has the biggest apeal to the average BNet player >_>

Had really been looking forward to this hoping Soulchess whould have been the first map spotlighted as that would also have meant good publicity for the clan, hehe :D :p

The other day I went to thehubb and it had 2 new threads made last 2 months, I think it has something to do with whitehorn leaving wc3 modding (ouch for the so called wc3 modding conmunity).

Anyways:
1) Official modding sites of games often suck.
2) In this case it is surely true since Dota is the one and only wc3 map there. (Not a seriously bad map but having only one map is lame)
3) But the biggest reason it sucks is its forum, which is the old bnet forum, which is full of morons, trolls and idiots. I hope this bnet modding site fails so people won't get to that stupid forum.
4) It doesn't really matter if this site isn't linked there the reasons:
- That place sucks.
- People will find this site out anyways

Say it aint so...aw, I'll miss his bright shining smile and wonderful attitude. :roll:

They have dozens. I do hope they release them at a rate of more the one a month, however. It would make sense for them to start with dota, for it is unfortunatly and unarguably the most successful fan map ever stolen...err I mean made.

@werewolf: I know this is oftopic but I find that building stuff really helps you if your depresed. I'm serious, it actually helps a lot. I was really depresed before until I started helping my dad build our deck, after that I did smaller things like puzzels or maybe a few models but they all gave me a great distraction and helped me. You might not have too much spare time but what's more important than keeping yourself sane?

Ever thought having an advert to buy WoW gold got you removed? Well think it.

Hubb and Samods will be added, most likely the next update, along with various others.

Got to keep in mind those sites are rather small. And samods isnt even really active anymore.

Quality over quantity my friend. You like being labelled the biggest noob mod site of the lot?

People at Samods work more than chat and they're still very atcive.

Well, considering we have quite a number of quality works here, and that many of the resources on the Hubb can be found here as well, I'd think of it more as "variety over selectivism."

Better then being labled as the most elitist site of the lot.

And we are well aware of the gold banner. It will be removed in due time
