We should lobby, in the proper fashion and with taste and verve, to "split" the custom forum in order to up circulation and welcome star2 overflow of players into "customs"?

Splitting the custom forum into 2 sub forums under the same "general" heading: CUSTOM
1/ pure galaxy
and
2/ player/melee maps

1/galaxy oriented forum (possibly with ums)
(possibly sacrificing some of the exposure for ums mapmakers ): + Show Spoiler + )
guides/galaxy news etc
on one side

2/melee maps and melee customs (as in most of what tl mapmakers are into)
melee mods discussions and development / units from a melee standpoint discussions and dev etc
on the other

Of course,
trying to advertise this change by channeling the "general" and "strategy" players overflow into customs
ie: "go and make a collective that thinks "x" would be viable, the mapmakers will arise to the challenge, produce said maps, and awe or ridicule will ensue, instead of whine spoil and autobahn ensuing".
For the simple fact for one that: it is "somewhat" allowed to whine about the state of the game in "custom"

An outlet for these players to whine that could mean more circulation for mapmakers = all good

Let's face it,
tl is 80 % melee maps or melee considerations
(ums for melee players or melee mod ...)

i would <3 and post in both of these sub forums, both under the great and vital CUSTOM heading

ps:
i'm basing this on:

a/the fact that all mapmakers need desperately to be "supported" by players (testing/feedback ; hosting and general unbridled interest in their work)
b/the fact that mapmakers can fend for their forum(s), so moderation would not be such an issue

Picture it kinda like "fan clubs" is to "community":
1/pure galaxy: + Show Spoiler +

2/everything else: + Show Spoiler +
