Im thinking about making a site similar to SnarkPit.com but mines gonna be called RavenHolm.com (please dont take name)
Im very good with making sites, becuase i know HTML, Javascript, PHP, MySql, And Actionscript 2.0
And at the bottom of the site it will say inspired by SnarkPit.com,
becuase snarkpit it awsome, but my site will also have a feature where
if the map is good will host it, and a few other fetures. but what do
you guys think???

It's actually already been registered since 1995. :razz: I'm amused by Cassius's sentiment, however.

I tried to make 'Antlion.com', so Leperous came to my house and raped me. We don't speak of that anymore.

When you come along and say "I'm going to make a site inspired by your website which does exactly the same and more", it's really just saying "I'm going to copy your website and make it better so people come to mine instead". If you're inspired, great, but make something else! What would people think if Bill Gates got up and said "we're inspired by Macs, so we're going to copy them but make them better but we'll put a sticker underneath saying we were inspired by them so it's okay" ?
As I said in my previous post, I really don't think you're quite up to doing this sort of thing yet. It's more than just making something with your (probably quite basic) PHP/Java/etc. coding skills!
And btw it also smacks of that really annoying CS "Oh I want to decompile and remake Dust and make it more fun" attitude, it is very n00bish attitude :/

actually leperous is pretty respectful to new members, as long as there
is no stealing of ideas, treading over trademarks , Killing copyrights
, Or just plain old copying. Nobody would go to it if it was the same
but "better" because there are tons more members here. If its different
like a moddeling site, or a coding site GO FOR IT = ) and Best of luck.
But the mapping sites been covered :smile:

You also need to learn to edit your posts instead of making a new one everytime something else comes to mind. Basically, if no one has posted since you posted ... edit your post to say what you need. Please.

how is that a selling point? When I look at a site I dont go "oh its pretty hard to get banned around here"
why? becuase most of us dont do things that will get us banned.
<span>what kind of people do you think would shop at a store where the policy was "shop lifters will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law, if 70% of the employees want"</span>
