Well, Ive seen user created maps far superior to the professionally crafted ones. Ive been playing a lot of HOMM 5, for example, and theres tons of great maps around to download, really good stuff. And those maps are what´s keeping the game always fun for me: the random map generator sucks, but thanks to the load of maps avaliable on the net, I can always find another one that has what Im looking for. Also, Ive seen a whole bunch of pros who, in their spare time, like to create mods and maps for other games.
I agree that there always going to be a lot of crappy ones, but I dont see how it could ruin the experience of anyone: nobody is forced to download user created maps. They are there if you want, and you can make yours if you want. If you cant find a good one, or dont want to make one yourself, thats too bad. You can get disapointed with the community for it, but not with the game.
