Could you please say this in an understandable way?
You have areas in your map that the light from the sky doesn't reach or what?

If that's the case, you can use light entities there, or you could use texture lights.
For more info on how to do that and on other stuff about lights you can read this tutorial or this one.
...and that's the bottom line because Mate de Vita said so.

Actually you still get to insult a lot of people, edan still gets to help a lot of people since he has more experience and knowledge than me, while KD... well KD is in your opinion a bot and bots don't care...
Anyway, he does know a lot more about mapping than me, so I could never "take his job" anyway.

So yeah, I'm not actually taking anyone's job.
...and that's the bottom line because Mate de Vita said so.

that is completely irrelevant, though most likely true...

Ah, you need to increase the maximum viewable distance , basically what's happening is the game is clipping everything beyond a certain distance plane.
I give a little into the moment like I'm standing at the edge (I know)
That no-one's gonna turn me 'round
Just one more step, I could let go

In Hammer: "Map" ---> "Map properties..." and raise "Max viewable distance" (and re-compile the map)
QUACK! QUACK!
