I think the way the forums go, is that if you have a editing question for HL, it goes in the Half-Life editing. Same principal for the Half-Life 2 editing. As for the Maps. I would think that it is only for posting maps to be released and reviewed. Anything else, should go in the General Banter forum.
This is only my opinion and I would like for you guys to toss in your own words of wisdom

It should be fairly obvious what they are for, this site is about as n00b proof as I could make it!
