- Presently, there is neither need nor actual mapping demand to open the "western continents" at this point. There are a ton of unclaimed and underutilized areas of our four continents now. At the risk of sounding negative, there may be a desire of some to want to open the western continents to do meta world-building, but the present rate of progress in our existing projects highlights how we already have a greater supply than demand. — Alessa (talk) 13:35, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
