BTW, I think that the guys who are primarily interested in the PTO or Med, are probably somewhat "evangelical" regarding new maps for the simple reason that very few existed (Med), or very few were good/useful (PTO). As a result, they are excited, and want to share.
I don't think it's out of any sense of superiority, or that "only real simmers play with X, Y, and Z." It's wanting to share something they think is a good thing with others that might enjoy it.
Don't assume malice where it's likely exactly the opposite.

PS, Feuerfalke, csThor suggested that there was some special map tool that was hacked from someone else to make maps. I was merely pointing out that this is not true, and the FMB is in fact the primary map tool. Not just for placing buildings, for placing terrains, making hills, and so forth. I know the conf.ini is not protected, I was making a joke since all that is required to enable map-building is a few changes to that file. (USING the changes is another matter entirely, but I was only discussing the tool to do so).
