They are, however, quite valid points. They may not legitimately be "10 reasons why Island Defense Sucks", but they are 10 things that really piss me off about Island Defense. Like I had said, this was the result of me playing more than fifteen games of straight crap, and getting very upset.
They're more at Pandamine also. You're only in there because you really pissed me off a while ago, and while I was typing it I thought of that. Pandamine really isn't doing THAT much. I almost guarantee you I could do the exact same things he has done to the map, and I have almost no experience. Given I cannot do JASS, but GUI does almost the same thing and I could do that.
Anyhow, the real reason I'm getting more support on Darox's site is because half of the Island Defense community jumped at the chance to be known for kissing up to Panda/Wall.up/whatever his name is now. Half of everyone ditched the old Island Defense for Panda's shit. I find that to be ridiculous too.
you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.
darox has been mia from the map for just about a year before he released 286.
before the 286 official release, a buggy 286 beta was released and became very popular.
at this time darox quit editing, and it became very apparant to me and many other people that darox would likely stop editing or not edit for a long time.
it was a few monthes ago when panda deprotected island defense and started editing it.
at first i was really skeptical but i began to support him after a while.
here are my reasons for supporting panda
-he is dedicated and is a capable editor
-his purpose in editing is to make the map better
-he is willing to put in the time and effort to make the map better
-his doctrine in testing and game release is heavily beta test related
-he listens to, interacts, and utilizes the community in map development
when panda first started editing his deprot version, darox took a very strong approach against him.
darox was so adamently against this that numerous posts, game updates, and topics concerning the panda release of island defense were deleted from the .org site.
to myself and adam at the time(the only 2 other active admins), it seemed as though darox was against it due to the fact that he was working on another version, and didn't wish for panda's one to frequent battlenet.
adam and i continued to let darox abuse panda from this conclusion, and pressed him about a possible new version in the private forums.
after what was a few weeks it seemed likely that darox was through editing, so adam and i left the site and joined panda on the new site.
it is no secret that darox and i don't get along very well together, but i put up with him on .org solely for the purpose of a better map and for the community. it is entirely professional, and not for personal reasons that i chose to support panda. your points are filled with speculation, nonsense, and personal attacks. you claim that the community ditched for "panda's shit", but darox ditched the community a long time ago.
i'm done with you.
