I can see why you might argue that, because if you're a newbie map maker, its alot easier 2 just look at the triggers and say, "oooooohhhhh. So thats how you do that! I'm going to make in my new map!". I use to do that myself . Unfortuanetly, most of the time SCUnprotect is abused. Most people just unprotect maps and than take all the credit. Since this has been brought up before, lets take Tuxedos "Kill Me" Map. This map is one of the most complex and funniest maps sever. Some noob than comes along, and says, "Hey. Thats an awesome map. I want to see the triggers." They find out that they can't open it cause it is protected. So they use SCUnprotect to open it. They tahn open it and look at the triggers. There are so many(I'm betting this,I've never looked at it myself)triggers, that this person can not understand it. Usually, right than is where everythign goes wrong.
If a person can not understand something, and they want to make there own map that is as popular and awesome as this 'something', they will do something totally horrible. They will takethe credit of the thing. So this noob than goes in and changes all of the "By Tuxedo Templar" to "By XXXX". This taking of credit is inhumane and actually could get you arested for it.

i partially agree
but as an avid RP player i think that those are the only types of maps that shouldnt be protected
what if i want to edit a map that has units that you make your own name for but i want to give them names of my own but the map maker is so closed minded he refuses to let people give them ACTUAL names they just go by (insert name here) and (H)ero i would like to be able to alter them
there are some rps that to i want to alter so that the units arent named the same way as the above
and only a retard would change the BY part
if i moded a map i would simply add "Altered By" right beneath "Created By" if there was no "Created By" i would simply add it with the original makers name
if i were to say alter a res evil map it would read
Created By: Panzer_Kavalier
Altered/Modded/SinglePlayered/Rigged By: OBELISK[WP]
there are actually a couple of resident evil maps i want to change something about
i want to get rid of the trigger that FORCES you to play multiplayer maybe i want to play alone on singleplayer so i dont have noobs constantly taking the units and leaving them to die
