Right, let's go through this.

"Make mapping interesting". Seems legit. I assume you want to make mapping popular, right? Fair enough, that's a pretty universal proposition.

1. "Official Mapping Channel". That seems like something I and a few others could do, but our lives are already quite demanding. It's something we can look to do in the future though.

2. "Experiments." Hmm. I have mixed feelings about this. Youcan't force people to do it, but it could work in the form of collaborations. Interesting.

3. "Drama is good." This... urgh, I'm not even going to respond to this one.

4. "More collabs." This one, I agree with, but it's not something that can be forced. People should enter or create collaborations independently of anything else. However, it is within the wikia's power to pronote things, and collaborations are the best way to make mapping channels and the community as a whole to grow and become ever more interlinked.

5. "Competitions." Luckily for you, I'm already doing this! Along with the Mapper Tournaments, I will also be working with a few others to produce a brand new Mapper Oscars! It'll be a seasonally occurance, unlike its predecessor, and I'm hoping it becomes much more integrated than the usual Mappers by Subscribers. With the Romanian Mapping controversy, I've come to realize that we put waaay too much weight on subscribers, and not on skill. So these new Oscars should help bring the real best mappers into the spotlight!

6. Right, this is a bit controversial, but I do agree with you, except about the games. People need to document their series on the wikia, which is what the wikia was mde for. But getting rid of games and such just divides the community further. Note that.

Your final remarks are a bit stupid. The community is not dying, because it is growing every day. I admit that we've lost the plot a bit with all the games, but that does not mean that it's declining. And do not forget that mapping as a whole is becoming more and more popular, and we have very skilled mappers joining every week. My Mapper Tournament is one example of the extraordinary skill mappers have.

I know what's happened. You've looked at the top ten mappers by subscribers, realized that you don't like them, then combined them with your hatred for wikia games and wrote an annoying blog to get more people riled up. You've failed to understand that subscribers do not signify skill. There is so much skill in this community, bit you've been blinded by that list of the top subscribed mappers.

Yes, some of your points are intersting and worth implementing, but please get your ass out of your head and realize that subscribers mean almost nothing.

Sorry for being a bit of an ass near the end. I'd like to see your responses to this.
