The Siren Board

TBH that's more or less overkill. I'm just fine with the default google maps ones.

You guys probably don't understand how much effort I put into all the elements, it took me 2 weeks to make the map and the icons!

I'm going to make this as simple as it can get for you to understand.
IF you DO NOT have ANYTHING TO ADD to the EXISTING SIREN MAP then there is NO NEED to make "OFFSPRING MAPS".
(Excuse my bold points if you must)
It's been mentioned to me back when I was really rustling jimmies on this board in my younger years that QUALITY is more valued than QUANTITY. Effort and time is nothing if it's not quality added information to existed sources.
Example: I'm rebuilding the siren archive, with my own ideas added, but I have a reason to as the owner of the current one has abandoned it.
The siren map is not accepting locations at the moment, but you CAN make up for what's missing. Keeping the same format will be nice as it fits in with the currently present puzzle pieces.
Just adding "hard worked on icons" doesn't mean it's more useful than what we have no unless it has missing locations.
Another thing, link us to the download page instead of an absolutely useless welcome page that contains merely a few sentences that are mostly directions on how to get the siren map. As a webdesigner, I can tell you now, THAT INFORMATION belongs in the DOWNLOAD SECTION.

(sorry mods for shouting/bolding/underlining/blah etc. etc..)

I was the one who started that siren map, Trevor established it for us but its been ages. I'm not trying to "Offspring it", as of right now I'm about to update that download link with even more locations. I don't even really want to talk about this anymore, so would someone please lock this, now that THIS happens I don't even know why I posted this in the first place!

Excuse me sir, but I would like to shake your hand.

Technically, you're off-springing it.
If you're going to make up for missing locations, use the same design. As the Angry Video Game Nerd touched on Nintendo swapping buttons on a Mario Game, you just DON'T do that.

Another thing, stop abusing the karma system. Just me or ANYONE ELSE here smiting you is NOT grounds for smiting us back, as a fact that is being immature.
This is not YouTube. Sub4sub is not welcome here.
I may not have a moderator sign under my name, but I can speak for quite a few people on here who are sick of this going on here.

The karma system is made for the ability to applaud one who has a quality post, and smite one that has a grammar, spelling, and/or fiction-filled mess of a post.
You doing this is in no way funny, and you're not "getting us back" All you're doing is abusing a system, and to people with high karma that hurts them little to not at all.
To people like me with "just starting" karma, that is going to "hurt" me, but I can easily assure you it will be back up in no time.
