No The showcase is for showing off your maps and Projects your working on. The Map Ideas section is for Idea Development.
Like I need help with figureing out what units to use. Or I'm making a RPG any good battle system ideas?
It kinda just depends on the original intent of the post.
An Ideas Thread -
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopic=8130A Showcase Thread -
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopic=7510The idea thread is asking for help with ideas while the showcase thread is more of a advertisement and showing everyone what your ideas for your map is.
Heres the simplest way i could put it.
- Showcase - Thread Starter Presents a map / idea for a map he is making or has made.
- Idea - Thread Starter expects others to help him in Idea Development.
However i could see how people would be confused about this. Thats always the way I understood it to be.
PS. I didn't vote because I don't think this isn't on there lol.
