Thanks for that - its all welcome - and not necessarily attempting to be the next biggest thing, but rather attempting to encourage the sharing of saved worlds.
I am constantly updating the site and improving the usability, unfortunately i don't have the luxury of too much time as my job takes too much out of my day - so i went with a wordpress site to save time on coding. Its really meant to facilitate what Minecraft misses - a central library of Minecraft Worlds, available for download.
Its merely meant to be an easy way to upload a world, and share it with others who come to download, looking for something new to do with Minecraft.
That being said - constantly improving, looking for new ways of making it easier and simpler, to upload or download different Minecraft Worlds.
Always happy for the feedback - ty

Why not host them yourself? Those affiliate file hosting sites are seriously painful.
Why do you require my email address?

Hey there
I did initially host them myself - however it seemed difficult for posters on my site to use that feature - so this is why i have tried to make it easier - and use an existing upload source for this.
I will usually download the world thats submitted - create a backup and then host it myself anyway - this is purely for submissions.
Email address? - so i can return the favor and give you a gift code if your one of the first to upload your saved world, and also because its a general requirement in case you decide to post bad stuff etc...

Too difficult? For what? To click "open file" and select one? You are full of shit.
It's not purely for submissions. If I try to download a file I end up at a file host, where I assume you grab some revenue.
Right, requiring 100k email addresses just so you can send 5 people codes, that makes sense. Also, why is this required in case I post bad stuff? You have my IP, what more do you want?

whoa - firstly - making no money - no money at all - this is a fan site.
Secondly - the reason why when you download a world it goes to a file host site - its because that is the link someone has submitted. Try downloading Falcons World - You'll see thats a direct download for a world thats hosted by me.
Lastly - if you don't want to upload or supply an email address - i'm not forcing you to :)

Then why the crappy affiliate file hosts. You cannot tell me it is easier to upload and copy paste a link than to just upload. Again, you are full of it.
You provide no method to upload to your site. How is this done??
Sorry, can you tell me again why you require an email address? You are advertising this on reddit, which DOES NOT require this. What is your reason?!?

Gift codes to the first 5 uploaders, coz sharing is caring.
I will email you the gift code to the email address provided when you post the world.
EDIT I will advise once all gift codes are gone - there are still 5 remaining
EDIT Must be a world save file of a world you want to share.
Why would you give accounts to people who already have the game?
Instead, head over to /r/mctradedepot and give them to someone who actually wants an account.
Anyways, nice concept, but you're not the first. I've seen at least 5 other sites posted here that do this. I'm not sure what the point is, none of the other sites ever ended up being very popular, since it's not a very difficult thing to do in the first place.
yeah i've thought about it - but i wanna give peeps who have the game a chance to get it for their friends, and if you just release a code - i'm not confident they go to the right people.
This way - the reddit community gets something (a world to download and play in) and the Poster gets a code for their friend.
With regards to sharing - and it being quite easy - yep it is. I just want to centralize the uploads and create a library of Minecraft Worlds for peeps to download and play in so whenever you get bored and wanna play in a new world, you only have to go to 1 place to download, instead of searching around for a good world to play.
Thx for the feedback :)

Any world is usually good to upload - Some people just like looking though other peoples creations - and then build even more on it.

Alright, I uploaded a world just like that. Really nothing special about it. But if somebody wants it, and you don't mind cluttering your website with some random maps, enjoy. Feel free to edit the description if it's lame.
