I was notified today that four of my maps were removed. All of them StreetView posts showing hookers on the roadside. I just wish to know whether this is due to some new policy so that I don't post this kind of things in the future... Thanks

Hi hhgygy,
Yes, unfortunately Google has complained about "adult" or "mature content" on the site, so we have been forced to remove it. I will be updating the Map Submission Policies shortly so this is clear going forward.
Thanks for your understanding.

"Mature content"... seriously, I can't stop laughing. We have concentration camps on here, secret government laboratories, weapons of mass destruction - and they decide to censor the bikini girls? What exactly are Americans wearing on the beach?

I'm not commenting on this policy. Different countries, different policies.

I think that's not the country's policy, but Google decision thing.

You have rejected the last map that I've posted, the monument say "behind this little wall W.Churchill, gen. Alexander and leese observed the development of the battle"

Thanks for the clarification. Your map is restored and approved.
FYI - not related to Google mature content deletions.

Hi everyone,
To clarify, I've updated the Submission Policies page (see the Inappropriate Content section)
http://virtualglobetrotting.com/submit_policies/
Thanks to everyone for your understanding!

When Google complained to you, did you complain back to them that it is on their site too? Nothing we post has not been posted by them first. What hypocrites. We are helping them find offensive, violent, and pornographic images on their site. You should do a hunt for all of these and not post them but send them to Google to remove. If they don't remove them within a month start posting them again. No matter, just like the big conglomerate to stomp on the little guy.
