The disclaimer says otherwise, that's why it's there. What you think and what is true are apparently different. The point of this thread is for people who would like to see a certain map made, but lack the skill to make it, able to describe their idea and then someone else can make it, and they can play it. Alternately, the thread is also for elite SCUMS map makers who have skill but lack ideas, so that they might be inspired by the ideas of someone else and not have to feel restricted solely to the limitations of the person's idea by giving them credit for the concept.
Uncopyrighted information is always public property. There isn't a place on the internet that you can talk about a map idea and then stop others from using it. I was just warning those who would be under the same impression you are, that by saying something, you own all rights to it
If you are a map maker, feel free to credit those who provide any ideas you might use. However, there's no way to force anyone to do anything, hence the disclaimer.
If you have a map idea, or a map you'd like to see made, but are unable to make the map yourself, or don't want to, then share your ideas here and someone else might use them. This is especially useful for SCUMS players who have a dream map they'd love to see made, but have little to no map making experience.
This thread is for pro map makers who lack ideas, and UMS players who have ideas but lack map making skill. If you are able to design professional maps, and you want to be credited for an idea, make the map yourself.
