Mhm and that's so true. I've tried making maps so many times, but I suck.
However attribution and ownership are to different things. One can have both without a copyright, and if you make media for an OS game, wouldn't the true spirit be to ask others to improve and modify it as they see fit?
Uh, I'm not trying to argue. I just know that when I make something with no copyright I want others to assume it's kopimi or public domain. So I think that (no offense to you) the authors, if they are able, should answer Ash's question. Otherwise I would tend to follow your advice in this situation, but really only considering the possibility of his/her server being blacklisted.
EDIT: Haha... you'd have to know me to understand my opinion there. I don't think it's a very common one.
