    Exactly! I also don't get that reaction.

    People currently use mailboxes to bypass this, so how is it any different from being able to carry more than 1 map? I also didn't speak about removing the timer, if anything, it's good that the timer exists. Another thing is that not everyone can have a party of 8 for maps all the time, so the 16 maps per group argument is void. And even then, 16 can still not be enough since the portal isn't guaranteed to appear 100% of the time and you can easily get kicked out early on if you're unlucky. I also can't comprehend what correlation there is between being able to only carry 1 map and the market prices (since there will still be the timer), so I'd appreciate if someone could explain this.

    Why would they care about maps more than any other item in the game, though, and give it this special treatment?

    It would be way worse if the restriction wasn't in place as they could literally clean out the entire MB of its maps in one go.
    Reading this, I can see how this would be a problem, but still, bots will still be able to do this by using the mailbox. Also, instead of making life harder for the players, the solution is to get rid of the bots instead, yet here we are... This said, thank you for your answer. It was helpful.
