The community is killing itself.

Thankyou Kicken and Gaga for being helpful and letting us know what is going on. Loads of staff don't tell us and just say" people like it so it stays lock". It is really great that you told us how busy the Dev team are. Now I don't feel like raging because nothing is being done :3

Just go to the console for the servers and delete sg4. Breeze is ok, but sg4 just needs to be gone.

I said this on another thread, the SG maps (all of them) will never be removed since it is because of their creators (Team Vareide) that we have mcsg, so we owe it to them to have their maps on the mcsg servers.

Finally someone makes a post bought this!

Thanks for your sarcasm, you've made a great input in this thread.

If only you would notice that I have raised points instead of just leaving a poll saying "wat do u guys tink i H8 DEM "

Oh boy, a sassy one.

If you do want my opinion, I don't like it, and I'm sick and tired of it, just like everyone else, but this thread comes up way to often. My idea for a solution is:
-remove skip vote
-change to 3 maps to be voted for
-add a "random map" option
-prevent maps from appearing twice in the same lobby (though I've heard this would cause a lot of lag due to caches or something)

how's that for contribution?

New players are being bred to only play on SG4 and Breeze, and they never want to play anything else.

Good point. I never thought about it this way. New players coming in almost know nothing besides 4 and breeze. So it either makes them not want to play because there are no other maps, or it trains them to only want to play sg4 and breeze, and the cycle continues.
fail/fail scenario.
Making them sound like animals.. lol but conditioning is real.

I agree either we need no voting and random maps or maybe just no skips but still voting.

Hmm this could be an interesting parallel to government... but that's for another thread..

This actually kind of changed my mind about all of this ... Good job Kraidium :3
I have an idea but it might be a bit annoying to perform, but here goes:

So for a few weeks or a month or so, we keep the votings, and see which maps are never voted, most voted ones etc. And if the maps that are never played, the one or two, might be removed due to inactivity and not accepted by the players.
So then we can remove these two, and then we can remove voting system and have random maps, or keep voting system but no skips. We could do this so we always have something good as a a map.

Another idea, is to keep the voting system(I still believe the skip should be removed), but we add a number of maps 2-5, so that these maps will have a harder time always getting played, but if we would do this, then we'd have to make sure that the new maps we add has good quality and it loved by the community so another MCSG ruins dilemma appears again.

I honestly think that these problems could be severely reduced by removing the skip vote option. It stops people continuously skipping till breeze or SG4, which from what I can tell is the main point of the issue. You do that and everything should balance out just a little bit more.

This.

I liked how it was when I started playing. Random. No vote, no skip just random. But otherwise remove the skip. If a new player plays 10 games and always plays Breeze. What do you think he's voting for? Breeze. If you hold a carrot in front of a pig. What is he focused on? The carrot. The community is giving the new players horse blinkers(Things that cover their sideview?) they can only see infront of them and they have Breeze and SG4 in front of them.

It annoys me greatly. They say that it won't be removed because it is popular, but it is really only popular for the 8 year olds because they know some of the chests. Us "real" players enjoy all aspects of maps, but get annoyed when you only play 2 maps for 3 months, with the occassional batch of SG1-3 and Solar Frost

Breeze is horrible compared to SG4. It's essentially a deathmatch mixed with 20 minute water chases. I don't understand how people like water chases, they aren't fun at all. People say the matches go quicker, but they really generally don't. I've had more 7-10 minute sg4 matches and even more 10-15 minute sg2 matches as opposed to the normal 12-20 minute breeze island ones.
