Maybe some dude who mods very well from time to time. I'd like to believe that the MATs and BATs don't add people whose background, modding activity and skill they haven't checked before. Also, I really don't want to be mean, but would you people please DIRECTLY criticize what you think is wrong with the people added to the MAT or BAT instead of posting snarky, meaningless comments that make you look like annoying trolls? We all might profit from that!

For example Charles445 beats those 3 by the quality of modding. Also is it possible to find out what the criterias for MAT promo is?

Does this really need to turn out like the newBAT thread.....really?

@Natteke deleting that pic, send it again and you will be forum banned.

Could you tell me who told you that? I thought stuff couldn't be leaked.

Modders have been submitting applications during the past few months in order to join the Modding Assistance Team. After deliberation from both the BAT and MAT, the results are finally in! (A bit later than expected, but still in September nonetheless!)

I don't have the slightest idea who most of the new MATs are, how they map/mod, but I'm going to act as if I were very happy and say congrats because it is the only thing I am supposed to post in this thread.

Let me put it here:
In fact i think no one in the list have better mapping/modding skill than me, why Mr. NatsumeRin is still not a MAT yet?

Because MAT is never an ability-based team.
Because of this, there're always flames happen between skilled mappers and some of the MATs (you guys know who, right?)
Still, because of this, the skilled mappers/modders have less and less chance to get in the team and really help others. They're treated as flamers once they want to show their real opinions. All you need to do to if you want to become a MAT is to agree with those guys, or at least, close your mouth. Otherwise you can't.

NatsumeRin has 35 ranked maps and 563 kudosu and very good modding quality, if he know how to shut up, he's probably a MAT yet.

^True or not?

If true, i doubt what i said in the beginning.... is true.

Because MAT is never an ability-based team. ---- but this is so sad.

Edit: sorry to pick NotShinta as an example but one thing more:

From the Aha? event, it's probably very clear:

It's ok to troll the community, it's not ok to troll some of the important guys.

Skill is not everything. Being a nice and helpful communitymember is also a huge criteria. And that's the point where the most people fail I think. Maybe people like you who have skill at modding and mapping (though that is subjectivly anyway) should watch there attitude towards other people. Even if you don't like people like NotShinta, you don't have to fight his MAT-promosion because that only leads you into a worse position fpr the next MAT-round.

That's atleast what I think.

You're a really good modder and mapper, but that's not all, seeing how you cry now and how you compare with other people can see that you are not ready for the job.

because you keep pissing people off/trolling/thinking you're the best WHEN YOU'RE CLEARLY NOT

instead of bitching around every time there's an unrank you should be concentrating on, you know, modding, maybe? that might help if you want to be MAT...

by the way, if you think you have better "mapping skills" than everyone else in the list above, I'm sorry to say, but such a statement can only come from an arrogant guy who obviously doesn't have the maturity to be in the MAT.

I'd also like to thank everyone who happily trolled in this thread, launching the flame war. That's so helpful and is so going to give you good insight if you're looking to be MAT!

seriously now.


Edit: You seem to be referring to NotShinta a lot, but I'd like to remind you that he did not map Aha?
So if trolling there is related to that map (which I would rather consider as a parody more than a troll, then again most people aren't going to tell the difference) then go flame RandomJibberish.

Just saying, when I tried being a MAT in January 2010, they told me I was a nice modder but my attitude was awful.

Funny this is that I used to troll mostly the community, and not the "big guys".

I thought you must be friendly too if you want to be a MAT ;w;
ATTITUDE first !
see all of the MAT , are they all have attitude like you right now ?
If you cry out like this , just be a kudosu collector would be good enough :o
Sorry if I'm wrong. </3
Sure

Explaining thoughts is trolling ?, I only see post of disappointment as BAT's thread, everyone should be free to explain it (still following forum rules), the point of the topic is not only for say "gratzzzzzz!!!1111 , YAYYYYY, I like rainbows1!111111", it's announcing new staff members at the community and the community answer.

narakucrimson
Well... I can't say anything to that, Natsume, at least I don't think I can.

But, I guess it's clear that no matter who is the new MAT, he/she will for sure make his/her best to help the community...
...Which everybody can do from every position, I think.
I didn't start modding yesterday, either :( And yes, I hope to learn a lot in the process.

For everything else, well, if it counts... Sorry.

No one is saying that you or others new MATs doesn't know how to mod, I saw some of your posts and you seem a nice modder, the point is that actually for becoming a member of the staff (MAT in this case) "you must think in this way", "you can't explain what do you really think, and you must oppress it", this is not right, I would like give an random example like here, Armin, he's an awesome mapper/modder, he was MAT (for more than 1 years if I am not wrong) he got kicked from team for "bad behaviors" and for getting his nickname changed, this was purely ridicolous, he was 1 of most active/expert modders .. and there are MATs that don't mod from 6+ months, making a ladder fot becoming a MAT you should just have friendship. the quality of mods and the knowledge of mapping is the last thing that you should have,

I know many awesome modders being ignored/discarded for the possibility of becoming mat, Rin (talking about him, but there are so many people that can be good candidates) in my point should not be a MAT, he should be a BAT, I saw a lot of modding posts from him, he's an awesome modder/mapper and most important things, when modding, mods for helping people, as I see many current Staff members mod for find problems in the map or just for getting kudosu.
Astom
Gratz to naraku and sallad (especially sallad), others.... I don't know, just sad than my app got rejected again and from others too, for me at least the list of MAT/BAT is just "friends list/team", most of them don't deserve be one and just are noobs, I totally understand NatsumeRin and why is so angy at this because is frustrating how much better mods/mappers got they app rejected just because they are against this awfully system of rank and the people who overlord it or because they express their opinion freely without fear (people who you call "troll").

I think than quality is much better than quantity, but right now we need both.
Someone will say "Astom is crying" or something like that but I'm not crying for me it's for the people who really deserve be on that team, because I'm not really sure if I deseve be MAT or not, because they only want people who mod a lot, but at least I'm sure than I will be helpful, maybe not a lot like some people who overwork at modding, but at least I can point important things when it's needed and not just for say like most of modders.

Btw NatsumeRin is a really nice person, totally helpful for someone who ask for his help at modding, I never got disappointed for one of his mods, if you think than say the true is criying then you are just blind at the reality.

And that's all, I respectfully ask for those people who don't deserve be MAT/BAT than LEAVE already, thx :>

There's more to a MAT then just being a good modder, and being "nice" to your friends. There's an attitude thing. The people appointed, after talking with various people of various "social groups" that have sadly arisen on osu!, I made the conclusion that all of these people were qualified. Not just because of their modding/mapping skills, but because they had a good attitude.

You, on the other hand, do not have a good attitude. I mean, look at this! " for me at least the list of MAT/BAT is just "friends list/team", most of them don't deserve be one and just are noobs" What kind of attitude is this?! You were just disrespectful to the entire MAT and BAT team. Then you turn around and say "Oh yeah, I should be MAT because I'm the greatest!"

Being a MAT is not just "Who's the bestest modder!", it's "Who exemplifies the qualities of a good modder, and will be someone who people can look up to?" You can be the BEST modder possible! But guess what! You can't be a MAT because of the way you carry yourself! How is someone supposed to look up to you in a position of power when you whine if things don't go your way!

and don't tell me "u just jelly." Just putting "I'm not crying!" doesn't mean you're not crying. Your entire argument is just based on fallacies because you have no support for your arguments other then "omg what noobs!" You're entire post seems just like an angry rant of "Well I'm just not a MAT because they hate me! WELL I HATE YOU TO. NOW THINK THE WAY I DO BECAUSE I AM RIGHT" Even if you're not intending to show yourself off like that, you are.

You're not always going to get what you want. If I always got what I wanted, I probably wouldn't be a MAT, but I'd be one thing. Happy, with a loving community to go to. But I don't have that yet. But I have a goal! I want to have a little bit more appreciation from my peers! So what do I do? I stay nice to everyone. I participate in discussion. I take advice from others, and am not so stubborn! Has my goal been reached yet? No! But will it be reached? Yes. I have faith that it will. If you seriously want to be a MAT, first of all, loosen up the attitude. Getting the MATs and BATs pissed off isn't the way to become a MAT. It's not revolutionary either. You're not going to start some sort of Revolutionary War. They had legitimate reasons. You're just mad because things didn't go the way you wanted. Second of all, don't get butthurt because your results aren't coming immediatley. All of the MATs on this list, I have NEVER seen complain once about not being a MAT! If you have evidence of "omg wtf I want to be MAT", then please do share it with me. Third of all, look at those who are successful, and imitate them. I'm not a good tuba player because I just said "Well I'm just amazing these people are just silly", but rather because I listened to suggestions, and I also surrounded myself with imitating those whom were good at what they did. Did I become carbon copies? No! But I saw what made them good, and I applied it to myself!

This is just a huge wall of text, but tl;dr, don't be such a baby. MAT isn't just "Who's the best" but rather "Who is the most qualified both as a modder and as a person"

Now I shield myself for the retaliation.

i have never agreed with cdfa this much

Poor narakucrimson, even though you guys never heard of him you can at least give him a chance right. As far as I know he's got a good attitude and is a decent mapper, so why all the hate?

anyway congrats all of you and I hope to see some active MATs in the future and not just ones that only mod their friends maps etc(not specially directed at anyone k chillout).

I'd love some names, Lunah. If you think there are some exemplary modders which we might be missing, I'd be more than happy to have a look at them and bring up a few next round.

As far as NatsumeRin goes, he has proven himself a decent modder certainly at the level expected by the MAT (and possibly BAT). He was considered as far as the final round of selection (which the current newMAT come from, there were a lot others that didn't make it that far) but in the end, concerns about his ability to relate to and communicate with people led to the conclusion that he would not function properly in a team atmosphere, and is thus unsuitable for promotion at the moment.

There is more to being a MAT than just throwing out mods. NotShinta was another case where we had to consider a similar balance, but he has at least proven himself to be helpful and actively interested in improving and upholding standards.

You can accuse us of despotism until you're blue in the face. I'll just have you know that Mystearica was a MAT once (and one of the first at that), and there has not been a more vocal opponent to our perceived wrongdoings since.

NatsumeRin: if you shape up your attitude and start being more constructive instead of inflammatory, you could quite easily make it into the team - both teams, in fact. Just get a grip on your temper and step back a little from things.

You're entire post seems just like an angry rant of "Well I'm just not a MAT because they hate me! WELL I HATE YOU TO. NOW THINK THE WAY I DO BECAUSE I AM RIGHT" Even if you're not intending to show yourself off like that, you are.

You're not always going to get what you want. If I always got what I wanted, I probably wouldn't be a MAT, but I'd be one thing. Happy, with a loving community to go to. But I don't have that yet. But I have a goal! I want to have a little bit more appreciation from my peers! So what do I do? I stay nice to everyone. I participate in discussion. I take advice from others, and am not so stubborn! Has my goal been reached yet? No! But will it be reached? Yes. I have faith that it will. If you seriously want to be a MAT, first of all, loosen up the attitude. Getting the MATs and BATs pissed off isn't the way to become a MAT. It's not revolutionary either. You're not going to start some sort of Revolutionary War. They had legitimate reasons. You're just mad because things didn't go the way you wanted. Second of all, don't get butthurt because your results aren't coming immediatley. All of the MATs on this list, I have NEVER seen complain once about not being a MAT! If you have evidence of "omg wtf I want to be MAT", then please do share it with me. Third of all, look at those who are successful, and imitate them. I'm not a good tuba player because I just said "Well I'm just amazing these people are just silly", but rather because I listened to suggestions, and I also surrounded myself with imitating those whom were good at what they did. Did I become carbon copies? No! But I saw what made them good, and I applied it to myself!

This is just a huge wall of text, but tl;dr, don't be such a baby. MAT isn't just "Who's the best" but rather "Who is the most qualified both as a modder and as a person"

Now I shield myself for the retaliation.
Sry but I don't remember say something that isn't true and I haven't discussed with other people before, "most of them don't deserve be one" is not all of them, and is not only me thinking it, the good ones rly helps community and are overworked with too much maps/reqs and all. My sadnes comes from don't be able to help more good mappers than can't find a single MAT/BAT for weeks or months, do you know how many times I read "MAT/BATs don't want mod my map"?, from beggining probably I will never send a app if there was enought MAT/BATs (good ones), actually I don't want be MAT because they got req like crazy and they can't catch all of them, they need ignore people and a lot of awful things, but not for that I'm going to skip the fact than there ARE MAT/BATs who only see themselves and their friends if you want denny that then maybe you need go and check logs of Kudos/ranks and open a little your eyes. I said than MATs need be people who deserve it, not only the best, if you think than sit down and keep your mouth shut is the way for resolve things then you are wrong.
I'm sry of say this to you but I NEVER thought than I'm best mapper/modder or anything, I always want improve my skills at all you can see it reflected at my maps or other things, I said than they are noobs because THEY DON'T WANT IMPROVE THEMSELVES or anything at their around, maybe they or you think than things are "fine" but they are not fine.
Probably I will never send another app or I will never got acepted has MAT or anything related with that, still I will keep my good attitude to PEOPLE WHO CAN'T FIND HELP ANYWHERE like I always do and help them, is my way of say thx to the people who helps me and didn't ask anything in return.
Sry for be stubborn, is something bad? for you stubborn people only thinks about themselves? for example I'm stubborn at mapping if I think than my maps isn't good enought I delete it and redo it again, and again, all the times it's needed, so yea I'm stubborn, if you see it like something bad then sry.
I don't think "I'm the only one, "my opinion is the only one", etc. but I will said this, yea I'm angry, not just from now, from actually a lot of time and there are people who share my opinion, yea we are angry and all, maybe we looks like "stubborn" people, people who complains about things, but at least we don't shut up our mouth and say all is just happynes.

Finally, I'm sry for all of this, it's a happy thing have new MATs, still there are people left behind than it's really good too, not only has mapper/modders, has person too, willing for help others and not only themselves.

Thx for reading.

.... Can't you just accept the fact you didn't make it and find out WHY you didn't to improve for the next round? The world isn't going to end for not being promoted this time. :|

Besides that, crying over not being a MAT is a sign that you refuse to see what areas you need to improve on. If you keep doing the same things that cost you this round till the next one, history would just repeat itself again.

Oh actually I accept it right at the moment when I read list of promotion, you still don't catch than I DON'T WANT BE, is more like I want return something to community for their help at me and just be a normal usser is not enought for help them sometimes, well that's my reason I don't know from others.

"If you keep doing the same things that cost you this round till the next one, history would just repeat itself again" then do the reasons from all the people who don't made it PUBLIC please =) it will help.

Well, it doesn't hurt to ask about it than to rage.

..... and throwing your rage at other people won't help you either.

Then please public who participated on votation, each round and why each app got rejected, I wasn't interested in this but if you want show attitude to community then don't be so secretive and start to show a little more respect, if you want respect from us then respect us too and don't keep things for "your inner circle", maybe it will make us less angry.

If you are looking for reasons why you weren't personally accepted, you can probably PM a MAT/BAT about his/her opinion on your modding/candidacy as a MAT. Personally, I'd be glad to tell you my own opinions and how you can improve, but because the application process is about individuals, I won't be telling anyone other than the applicant, sorry.

EDIT: Nor will I be talking about others' opinions, since they might not be comfortable with it.

If you were rejected and are angry because of this, don't ever expect to become a MAT. Ever.

If you can't handle rejection and understand we can't accept unlimited numbers of new recruits, then you have the wrong attitude and should never become a MAT. Congratulations to the new recruits, and good luck to anyone who doesn't fit the above criteria and strives harder to make it next time.

EOT.
