A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.
Rules:
Don't be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.
No direct upload images This is hosted on Lemm.ee- to post images, you must use an image upload service like Imgur to post maps.
We are agents of chaos I've created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named "mapporncirclejerk"
Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don't message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.
Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.
No impersonating mods I can't believe I had to make this rule.
No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.
Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say "take time to grow and come back when you are ready".

This might be a stupid question, but is Kansas city not in Kansas?
Not a stupid question at all, lol. There are actually two different cities, both named Kansas City, on either side of the border:
It's incredibly funny to me that the bigger one, and only one anyone talks about, isn't the one in Kansas.
It makes it fun going to concerts to see who can pass the Kansas/Missouri test. I just saw Green Day at an amphitheater on the Kansas side and Billie Joe would scream “Kansas City! Missouri… Kansas… and surrounding areas!” which was a novel solution lol
Lots of venues in the suburbs surrounding dc in MD and they’ll always refer to the area as DC.
Granted given our geographical size the crowd is just as likely to be from PA or VA
The European bands calling it “Silver Spring, DC” are my favorites.
