I know what you're thinking; "What a n00b!" (that's what i'd think, unfortunatly) But seriously. I'm sure it's the high ranking members who decide. (I still don't have the ranks down.) But what method do they use? Do you guys just sit there in IRC and suggest something by saying "that'd be lalz!! :p" or "gayzorz!!!" Or do you guys get ideas from people you like and actually take time and do some planning and decide what would be "best" for the community?

Themes

It varies EmpiresBane. Certainly the ultimate decisions are made by the 'high-ranking' members and the maps themselves are put together by one or two very dedicated staff, but every now and then we take the brainstorming out to you guys and ask for your suggestions.

Recently though, we had a map competition so we have built up a repitoire of player-made maps to build on in the near future. If, however, you think you have a really great idea, feel free to post it up in this forum channel, or else mention it to the staff in-game.

Usually we'll discuss it

Usually we'll discuss it among ourselves, if we're stuck, we just go in the server and ask what people would like to see. If you have a suggestion, tell us anyway.

After we get a suggestion, Miclee makes it cause he's a machine/
