User blog:Asgard6791/2nd Factions Era

A while ago I was reading about the history of the wiki and came across something called the factions era. The Factions Era is similar to something that is currently going on in mapperdonia. Let me explain.

In mid 2016 Super LV became the most subscribed mapper but he didn't like the wiki as a platform and decided to make his own community. He made a community called The Mapping Community on google+. LV was the most popular and influential mapper of the time, this let him help the community grow quickly. Many other mappers saw the success of The Mapping Community and decided to make there own google+ communities. Soon there were hundreds of google+ communities. They range in size from hundreds of members to thousands, (Mapperverse is now the largest).

The communities continually “declare war” make “alliances” and declaring “rivals”. Just like how factions did.

In case you're wondering what happened to The Mapping Community, it got deleted due to a ownership crisis.

My personal opinion is that because they are not as old as the wiki, makes them less developed and mature, in time they will catch up. There are a few good google+ groups but most are cancer.
