EQ2 Maps website vs. the updater

I apologize if this has been addressed before.
I have recently returned to the game and I've been running around doing that dang Sword of Destiny quest line.
Using the EQ2 Maps updater every day for the past week I figured I'd be about as up-to-date on map poi's as possible, but there are still some missing from the maps in game vs. the maps on the website.
I was just wondering why the updater doesn't give me all of the poi's I see in the maps on the EQ2 Maps website? I use the ProfitUI mod, BTW.

Thanks

Oh no, next thing you'll tell me to stop being lazy and get to work on the UI again. Just kidding, welcome back.

On your question: The website also has pending POIs which I believe are not pushed via the updater. Other than that: no idea.

I believe gm9 is correct.

New POIs and edited POIs are marked as pending from what I can tell, and pending POIs are not pushed to the updater (NOTE: The old version of a changed-to-pending POI are still pushed).

So that might be why =)

So...can I ask what the delay is then? Most of the poi's look fine to me and having the latest spots in game is such a big help to us navigationally challenged people.

I believe one of the administrative folks for EQ2MAP have to verify the POI. As such, it'd depend on their schedule.
