Perhaps give the mapmaker the option to write a short message which will be displayed with the reminder.
assasinguy wrote:For the map approval system, whilst I would disagree with your accusations of corruption in the approval system, as only Eric has the ability to approve maps and nobody on PB2 is really his friend because he's never here, I would agree with your suggestions for the new system. Just add something in for how well-balanced and fair a map is, obviously you don't want unfair gameplay in an approved map.

Quality > Quantity. Even if players have friends on the staff, only Eric can approve the map. I somehow remember pixelvowel making a "tutorial" or a guide on how to make an approvable map. (I think it was deleted with the old forum)

Most of the maps you know that are "approvable" aren't approved because the map makers doesn't try to notice Eric Gurt. Yes, you need to let your map be noticed by EG but the staff doesn't suggest that idea.
EDIT: Pixelvowel's guide was gone but I found these tutorials

If this was Actually Implemented i have a Feeling i would see ALOT of approved maps.
I know its hard to get Rates from Players without begging them.
But if you add this you may look less Greedy for Votes.(Which every mapmaker needs so badly.)
this could also help New Mapmakers(Like me.) To get votes.
So please add this! ; w ; ( i wanna Improve my map-making skills. even though me maps are horrid.)
