I'll explain why:
1) I only post in topics about what I want to say, because it's not very clear if people make new topics on things that already have 20 topics. Makes the forum a mess. So if I made a map of the Shing Jea Island, I'll post it in a topic about exactly that, even if it is old.
2) I like to help. My maps have helped many people in the community, and people are appreciative about them. So by posting here, the topic gets bumped, comes to attention again, with my additional info, which might help more people.
3) Is there a rule against posting in old threads? Then the admins should lock them. If not: what's the problem?
Anyway, to be even more helpfull:
all the Tyrian and Canthan collector maps can be found on:

(and post reactions there, so this "old" topic can stay nice and dead, the way Mitch likes it. Sorry Mitch)
