It is a great map for Russell propaganda to show how much they control but is by no means the be all end all for anyone to use, especially locals who know and remember what the common name of many locations/landmarks were before being developed and renamed by RL. One glaring example is what they have labeled as Glynmere will forever and always be known to my self and many others as Pitchford Hollow and what they are calling Deer Island was always known by myslef and others as "Big Sandy". Other spots were just not mentioned by any name, i.e. Dunhams Island, Nero Point, Girls Scout Camp etc. etc.
I understand many areas are known by different groups by different names but the ones mentioned above all have map references on other maps. A truly comprehensive map would be very nice. There is a map section associated with this site that is interactive and can be edited by forum members. I haven't checked it out in a while but will soon to see if any progress has been made on it. The last time I checked it out Bruce was asking for users to label any islands they knew by name. A searchable map with neighborhood and area names is a great asset. Lets all get involved and label more spots. Any area that is disputed could be handled by polling users to determine the 'prevailing name', or providing published map references form other sources.
