[Release] The Electric Castle
Wow, it has been mora than 2 years since the release of the map! I have just played it and wanted to make a comment as I normally do after playing a map. It was good and original, except there were some texture errors like columns sticking out of walls on the other side, but no big deal. I'm going to play your other map The Beta Complex now.
Keep up the good work man.
It has also been more than 2 years since the previous post. Please try not to bump so much.
Yes, I can see that but I can't get your point. what's the problem? Does it matter when I play and comment on the map? Do I have to play the map as soon as it's released? I simply wanted to pay my respect to the map maker since they work so hard to make a map and all we do is post our opinion on it. Do these threads have time limits? If so why isn't it locked? If you don't want to read "late" posts why don't you just click "unsubscribe topic"?
The main problem is that it makes the forums a bit more messy, as old threads are mingled with the new.
Another problem with it (that is specific to this board), is that most of the people that used to be on this forum have left, including farragar, so your kind comments to the author are entirely unlikely to ever be read by the creator of these maps.
A general rule is: If the map's thread is not on the first page of threads in the board, don't reply (unless the timestamp of the previous post was relatively recent).
Of course, in a case like this where the author is unlikely to read your post, it is better to locate them through their own website and compliment them there.
I don't know why you are making this a personal problem, maybe you own the website or something. And I don't know how I'm supposed to know whether the author have left the forum. But probably they were right because you can't even post a comment freely. So I'm going to leave this forum as well, and let you be in peace. Good bye.
Uhhhh rope I see that his comments on old posts can get annoying, but it shouldn't really be a problem unless hes bringing up 8 topics a day. but on the other hand, kataruna you shouldn't leave just because of that...

Yeah nice way to keep a forum alive. This place has died once besause of stuff like that.
A general rule should be, if a forum has no action whatsoever, let people post please and don't be so uptight about the rules.
Kataruna has a point, old treads should be locked after a certain ammount of time.
It would prevent confusion for the newbies. My two cents
Damnit.
I came back from a 2 week holiday to see that all these topics had been bumped and stupidly thought it had all happened within 2 days. Derp.

Okay, Hanging_Rope I got your message on Youtube and I gave up leaving the forum. I thought this was a forum where a map maker opens a topic for their maps and the players post comments on it. And I didn't know that the time matters so much. Maybe a map maker would lock the topic to his map after some time if he no longer wants any comments. Or maybe the topics would be put in order of the date of their first post. So that oldest topics would always be last and newest topics would always be the first. And when a comment is posted on an old topic only those who have subscribed to the topic would be able to read that post, particularly the map maker himself.
I don't see your point, rope. There are not many topics bumped that it should really matter.
At least me, as a map maker, am glad to receive feedback 2 years after release. 
Plus, it keeps the forums alive.
