Get rid of Ideas/merge it with Maps in Production (that's where they all end up anyway), and move Map Showcase to the top of the mapping section.
ADDITION:
In fact, while you're at it, why not subtract 100 minerals for every Maps in Production thread made, and give it back x10 when they actually finish the map?
Muahaha!

The Ideas forum was moved to Generic StarCraft Editing so that modding ideas could be posted there too.

Actually, I think Ideas and Concepts should be merged... the border between them is very blurry.
You just had to replace Totally with Muahahaha...

Totally.
...or yeah, merge it with Concepts.
In fact, merge concepts with ideas, stick it in the generic staredit section, and yeah.

The Ideas forum is there for people to come up with new and creative mapping and modding ideas. Without it, people would post all their mapping and modding ideas in the Concepts forum, which is for advanced mapping concepts that "break the limits of staredit."
It's fine as it is.
For example: a new type of bound would go into the Ideas forum, while a concept of having an advanced zealot AI after having only 10% health would go into concepts.

Actually breaking the limits of Star Craft begins with an idea. So why can't we call it Ideas and Concepts ?

Concepts is for proven breakthoughs to be debuted. The Ideas for is for anyone who has an idea for something, whether they know if it will work or not.

kk. Not a serious suggest, btw.
I dunno what mood I got in this morning to start spouting ideas and crap all over the place like that. Another symptom of acute Procrastination Syndrom I suppose. Or cheap booze.
EDIT-
Seem to have like a dozen people mad at me now.

Any sort of "Map in Production" shouldn't be in Concepts.
A new way of using mobile grids is a concept.
An RPG you're making with the new way of using mobile grids is a map in production.

Yeah, but all this "ideas/concepts/announcements but not real maps" stuff doesn't deserve so many forums. Plus I thiink we need an incentive for people to finish their maps if they bother posting a production thread about them.
I propose hitmen.

That's because you were on crack in op SEN last night.
But I like the way the forums are right now. Although the large amount of maps that never become finished in Maps in Production bothers me.

Same here. No offence to anyone, but some random noobs start dreaming of huge RPG's with systems close to what CD is supposed to have, and then say "Need terrainer" or "Need triggerer"...
Too much dreamers. Maybe we wake them up from their sweet slumber ?

Personally I think the Ideas forum is more of an "Ask others for ideas" place, while the Concepts forum is more of an "Explain your ideas" place.
