I am going to make a long post here. So, there are some maps that the majority of the community strongly dislike. I don't get it why MCSG doesn't remove them then. I will tell in this post what maps should be removed and why. I like all the effort in the maps, and I hope I don't insult any map maker.
There is a map that is basically unplayable. Fallen Empire. Fallen Empire is not really good looking. It never gets voted and when it does, it is just by trolls that want to crash the server. Team Elite is a great build team, but this map is not good. In the most recent couple of months, this map got voted 5 times. And when the lobby ended, and we were pre-game, the server just crashed. Why the heck would there be a map that is not even playable? I don't really get the point.
This map is old, and should be removed. It is Kharmunrah. It's really fun, not the gameplay and PvP aspect, but the discovering. I love exploring on this map, but for MCSG, it doesn't fit. It is the biggest map out there I believe. It is boring to play and I always get forced DMs. This map is the BEST for exploring, but it would fit a bit better in Beta, when it all was about survival, while it's now about PvP. This map is too big and doesn't fit for MCSG, that's why this map should be removed.
The Fallen Colossi... Ugh. This map got added through the PMC contest. It had great presentation, with shaders and all, but it looks terrible. The shaders took all the credit. The gameplay is boring, the map is too big and the looks aren't even that good. I'm really sorry, but I think this is the worst map. Avaricia is 2nd. Because it doesn't use as much shaders, while Avaricia is way better.
Another map from PMC, is Destiny's Shiver. It is even broken in the voting Destiny\'s Shiver (coding contains loads of 's and "s, so you have to put a \ before those in strings). Great looks overall, but it is just bad gameplay. Not really a Survival Games map. The corn is also weird.
If these four maps are going to be removed, the quality will be a bit higher. There are some maps that don't look good, but they are fit for MCSG. Some people are complaining about Breeze Island and Moonlight Lake, while they have great gameplay. Water chases might be annoying, but I don't really see the problem. The maps with bad looks but great gameplay should maybe be revamped with better terraforming and buildings, so the level of quality becomes even higher.
And don't forget, MCSG does listen to the community! If they didn't, MCSG Ruins, Asia Games and Freeze Island would still be there.
Btw, Moonlight Lake 2 is released, I just wanted to point that out for adding or replacing ML1.
TL;DR: Some maps don't fit MCSG, but other stuff. Other maps that have good gameplay but ugly looks should be revamped to let more people like it.
