I think this a little too much.
The point of a preview is to make the audience aware that you're making a project, and to boost some excitement. These aren't maps that people can download yet, so there's no reason we need to separate them into different categories.

Exactly.

Should reduce the amount of v2 threads as well and keep the map posting forums leaner.

I'm all for a preview map section. With or without the gametype prefixes, I don't really care. But it would CERTAINLY clean up forge discussion. Then we could get back down to just forge in there.

This is a great idea im sick of my map ideas being pushed down by previews. Hope it happens :)

Um not if your Map Projects or Map Ideas Go so far down No One will every see it again. Just like a monkey getting shot out to space. Once you go black you never go back. (Lolz No offence to racism). But Honestly there like 1,000,000 Map previews. So Why can't it? I agree to Pycho.

I like the idea but I think making it in forge maps is stupid, that is for maps complete, nothing else should go in there, forge discussion is for discussing different aspects of forge and not preveiws of maps. I think a project sub forum in the mother board would be best, I think the name Forge Projects would be good, in this people can post their W.I.P (Their map preveiws) and their map ideas, where they can try get a group together, this could mean that the forge buddies sticky could get moved in there, it will make it easier for questions in the forge discussion section to get answered.

Thanks for all the support people.

And I don't really care where they get moved, but a separate place is all that I want. I just thought under Forge Maps would be a reasonable place to put them.

good idea. I far more prefer looking into map prevew posts than regular forge, and I comment on them frequently so I am sure it gets annoying to other thread owners. Having its own sub-forum would make access to new ideas and cool projects a lot more easier.
