Be a BAT is like a "Second Job" and we (all the players) are the clients. Yes, be a BAT is stressful, but we need attenctions, ALWAYS.
If you agreed to be part of the osu's staff, you had to expect this, a lot of work.
Being a BAT is not a job. People who are BATs do that voluntarily. And even though we are doing it voluntarily,
most of us are doing as much as we possibly can and want to.We are not the community's slaves. We are trying to mod your maps and to make you guys happy. But still...
We can't do more than we can do.We are not superhumans just because we have colored names for fucks sake.
On a side note, we ARE doing pretty much at the moment. Looking at the Beatmap Listing, we get around 3-4 maps ranked on a daily basis.
Also, we ARE following the Starpriority system. We ALSO are modding requests, and since requests are usually bound to having more pressure to them, we often do requests first. You people would also bitch around if we didn't mod requests, right?
And if requests get ranked with very little priority, it doesn't mean that the BATs are like "hey guys let's rank this map just because I want to", it means that the map had little to no flaws and that there's no reason to make the map wait for long.
If your maps take very long to get ranked it usually means there's a lot of stuff that needs fixing.
By the way, if I hear people saying "baww BATs are only tag ranking" one more time I'm going to cry. LOOK AT THE FUCKING BEATMAP LISTING AT THE MOMENT:
The mappers for the latest ranked maps: LuigiHann (BAT), gdeath, Mystearica, avira0922...
Actually, do you notice how there's no ranked BAT map except LH's until page 2 with Takuma's "you" map? Tag ranking my ass.
Wow, I wanted to post even more but I'm tired and pissed off by this discussion. I'm sorry if some stuff didn't make as much sense as I wanted it to do, but it's 1 AM.
And I'll lock this topic now, since we had a discussion like this already, and this one will only result in one more useless flamewar. That won't get us farther.
