Repeated intro

Hello all, Recently it has come to my attention that a lot of users have been posting spam maps into the workshop in order to fulfill the achievement. This has lead to the unfortunate side effect of the Doodler workshop having many maps that are for lack of better words spam. In an effort to improve the community and allow players to get the most out of the workshop I have gone through and removed most of the spam levels. Unfortunately, I did not realize that this would cause some of you to receive a temporary ban from uploading to the workshop. This was not my intention and I would like to apologize. I have reached out to Valve and am trying to remove these temporary bans from your accounts. In addition, to prevent this in the future I am working with Valve to remove both 'Upload' and the 'Community Leader' achievement. I want people to upload maps they want to share and not maps they feel they were forced to make for an achievement. I sincerely apologize if you received a temporary ban from uploading to workshop due to this.
