I think the problematic part (for me atleast) is this map of the area that
you are proposing. IMO there is less need to do any personal exploration
of the place if you already have a map of it (possibly a map that says in
what direction to go to get to avoid some of the nasty mobs and get to the
treasure).

If done properly though, this could probably be a quite valuable resource.

Umm, make maps available on www.bat.org for all areas, but only show them when
you are logged into the website, and only show the rooms that your character
has visited :)

I think that such a feature would be abuseable (assuming that the admins
don't intend for us to be able to check where we have been).
Also, such a resouce would just simply become the default place from
which all maps originate and are distributed. It would be rather hard
to stop better explored players from distributing the maps that are
accessible to themselves.
