Yeah well. You can only beat a dead horse so much. Blizzard has said they will do something to fix it.
They designed it all for noobs who suck at games IMO.
I like them hosting because well, I dont have to manually search for updated versions of maps i like.
As a author I can just publish and bam everybody has my newest version, People cant name thier map the same as mine. I dont have to look at stupid fake maps where people spam free sex.
As for thier content policy..... so far they ban offensive words and warn people not to use copy written material. But ive seen a DBZ map up there for like 3 months now with copy written material in it that has yet to be removed......
I think you need to quit slamming blizzard... I mean if your that upset... quit mapping and quit giving blizzard your money. Most of us got through our "the pop system sucks" phase durring beta.
The popularity system really isnt that bad.... the only thing you dont have is where people will randomly join your game because its on the list.
In wc3 I could host a new map of mine and people would just randomly join. Sadly that is not the case.... Im hoping they do something that helps in this area.
Stop the bitching OMFG go flame blizzard everybody here agrees that the pop system is lacking.

BTW if you woulda actually read my post above, I said it would be fine if you use fan made models.....
Did you search google for fan made models before coming here?
Why hate on blizzard. Personally I like the fact that they are hosting the maps on thier end. It helps with alot of things. They wont ban your map for using custom models that look like halo stuff.. Though I would suggest you use slighyly different names if you intend for your map to be insanely popular and not have an issue with a map take down.
Blizzard makes awesome games. Gone are the days of ambiguity where only "true" gamers play games. Blizzard has to worry about bad press. They didnt have to worry back in the day.
I did a quick look around and im not seeing any. If you really want some halo look-a-like models post a request in the artist tavern. Otherwise scour the interwebs till you find some. To be honest though, your gonna have a hell of a time finding models that will animate properly in SC2.

Blizzard does support the community... its just your too ignorant to realize this....
@Colt556: Go
ok so you like user made maps but you dont play them.... you use the editor but you didnt pay for it....
Umm I think your a troll son.
Its really not that bad. the popularity system has grown on me.
Your a bit too angry for my tastes..... They did say they'd fix it ..
My new way to deal with people like you
YOU SON ARE A FUCKING NOOB AND SHOULD GIVE UP ON ALL OF YOUR "CRAPTASTIC MODDING ATTEMPTS"
Blizzard supports fan-based content more then any other major game developer in the FUCKING WORLD .... Jesus your a fucking retard

And if you really feel like pushing your luck here is a link to a furom that seems to be suggesting that you can actually extract the models from the games them selfs

@Colt556: Go
Umm you realize its technically illegal to use copy written material......
how does using halo models make a map better....
go make your own models dont cry that your not allowed to rip people off... blizzard is more concerned about getting sued then anything,
@Colt556: Go
yes there is a "shapecircle" model that can be used.
Tint it and set the opaccity . It should glow as well I believe.
Oh halo models? why would you need them..... Im just theres Fan made 3d models out there already.
and if you were to use actual models from the game halo ... if anybody notices and reports you say bye bye map on bnet
