Hi Nuttz,
I don't post much, but feel the need to echo the sentiments of the others. You and the other map makers do a great job and are an integral part of the community here. That kind of comment made about "whoever made this map must hate AH and it's players" is way off-base and inappropriate. Even if the person made that comment as a joke (I was not there, so I have no idea), an apology is in order. And if they don't, just fuhget about em (perma squelch). There are way too many of us who appreciate and are aware of the hours you and the other mappers spend on your trade.
That being said, spending quality time is very important in relationships so I'm sure if maps aren't put out anywhere near as frequently as before, everyone will understand (those that have a clue anyways). Heck, when I read about how long it takes expert modellers to put together a piece like a 1/35 tank or 1/48 aircraft, it may take months! Their creations come out wonderful, just as the maps do. I'm sure a majority of this community does not want to see you hang up your virtual brushes. However, if it must be, then a sincere thank you for your great work and for being a contributor in the community
