Frustrations
I've all but given up on map editing. I fix things once in a while but I've spent countless hours editing maps in my area, often times only to find that a newby had messed it up. Lesson learned: lock it.
But more recently I've been finding roads messed up by people who out-rank me, people who live thousands of miles away. i.e. turn restrictions changed that I know were right, one-ways changed to two-ways, etc. There's even an exit that has been removed from the real world, but since the imagery still shows it, people put it back, and now the person who put it back out-ranks me and locked it, so..oh well, there it is and it doesn't even exist. One look at the GPS tracks would tell you that it's gone.
I really don't like that some people have unlimited editing rights nationwide. If you're not REAL familiar with an area, please don't touch it!
