Sounds like a certain "clan member" is trying to start a flame war with ACK because he thinks its silly...

ok,
I added a rotation message in my br.net:
Thanks to all the map makers, TS maps made by Aircraftkiller & Westwood.
Does that suffice? I'll also add your readme to the mappack.
Also, only reason I have them in a map pack is because it is easier for people to download.

also, If you look at the idividual download i link them to cncden.com where everyone knows who you are.
As for the rest of the map makes, I didn't find a readme file, if they have a problem they can contact me.
1 last thing, there are 13 maps total out of which 6 are yours, which makes you the minority not the majority of maps.
we are considering remvoing: BasinTS, MinesTS, and FieldTS. Because the frist 2 are very boring, and fieldTS is not nearlly as fun as the original...

Wow....I always thought FieldTS was a ton better than the regular field... it has a lot more........polish, if you will.

the problem with fieldts is the elevators and 2 stories... and the friggin tunnels... same goes for MinesTS, people get stuck in elevators. if they were replaces with stairs/ramps that would be good. Also, minesTs would have been better if it had base defense, so could bunkersTS.

First off, not all of the TS levels were started by Eric Kearns. River RaidTS, BasinTS, and some others aren't. I can't remember them offhand, I've made over 40 levels.
If you want to remove them, that's great. I don't really care and don't see what point that statement had to this thread. If you think they're boring, that's great, not every level can be about flying penis mobiles and teleporting rabbits.
It's not my concern whether or not it's easier for them to download a "map pack," it's my concern that my copyrighted material isn't being used in the manner that I wish it is used in. I have no personal problems with you, but I'd like it if server owners would stop this practice and think of the people who make these levels. None of us get paid to do this, yet our wishes are usually ignored and we get stepped all over, just because certain individuals have no respect for anyone online.
I appreciate you adding the files I requested. There is more than one readme, so be sure to add them for each level you can find. Name them something like C&C_LevelNameItOriginatedFrom.txt and stuff it into the folder.
Some of them cannot be run without reading instructions.
If you get stuck in an elevator, a tiny walkway will not help. I've never had any of the troubles you describe with elevators, and I play my work frequently with over 20 players online.
If it's causing a problem, it's likely your server or the player connections to it.

Seems to me that the general thought from a lot of people is that only big companies can hold copyrights...

I know all too well - One of my teachers at the school i attend made our class watch an hour-long movie [If you can even call it that - there was no entertainment whatsoever in the entire film] on copyrights.
