To be honest with you I have to agree. I have liked this map, but due to so many patches, bugs, glitches, errors and changes to the whole chunk generation system, I feel that it would be best to start fresh with 1.0.0.
That way, a LOT more resources can be protected, instead of when we came to the Zeal map and all the resources were drained by x-ray new players!
Holyrane is right, this map has be overused dramatically. I remember in Sanctum, you could go out to the far areas of the world and find untouched land. Now, (before 1.8 map expand) you would go to the edges and find corrupt areas!
In a nutshell, I think we need a new map with 1.0.0 so that the land will be cleaner. This means no more 12x12 deserts and 2x2 ''oceans'' that have been making this map look terrible. Yes it was common and fine before 1.8, but now it just looks bad, especially as how the 1.8 land cuts a direct square to the previous world and create a massive difference (just check the map!).
