With all respect, what does ac_douze have to do with this? Playing CTF on douze is bad, but we are talking about bad mapmaking, not bad playing.
Also, anyone can wear a clan tag.
Though you are right, there is no proof that "creative" maps are driving away new players, it doesn't mean that the map requisites can't ever be changed or updated. I think I made this comparison before, but I will do it again: as new cheats are found, the anti-cheat is updated to prevent them. Shouldn't the map requisites be the same way?
