"Why do we need a solution? People in OT "as a community" are/were happy with the current situation. We don't even have "that" active users who visit forums these days anyway, people quit osu! or whatever. And why are we trying to bring back the old OT? Yes, it was good it was fun because it had more people. Not because of the quality of posts, it had too much active users back in those days, that's why even the shitposting was fun. Now just because threads are going around with only 4-5 people, everyone starts bitching about how bad OT is and suggesting people to use PMs. Let's just use PMs and noone visits OT anymore, let's just remove it then. Only solution is activity, not just saying "hey I love OT" and not visiting OT for 2-3 days. Even old users are doing this, anyways. "

od9 on a 120 bpm map just doesnt fit, its something for high bpm maps, like 180+ or somtehing (inb4 180 isnt high)

the neither funny nor interesting threads are used as a chit chat place for people, giving such unnecessary rules is only going to make the chitchat move to other topics which people dont like
this place doesnt give postcount, its just for fun. or are we back to "no fun allowed"?

community as a group of people together, if you want to call it a circlejerk then do whatever you want, in any community if you want to become part of it you will have to know how the community works, who are the respected people, how do people act in general, this isnt any different from that.
if this is a circlejerk then every community can be called a circlejerk
anyway im not gonna continue this discussion, we'll see what happens.

silmarilen, I think dkun's and Wojjan's point is that the way previous thread was being used could have been better used in IRC.

If you have a message that addresses one person in particular, do not use a thread for that. I think that's stupid, wouldn't you agree?
and Mara, I think silm's point is that if you don't let people have chit-chat like that, there won't be any activity in OT anymore in the end. Seriously there are maximum 10 or 15 people who visit OT regularly and post something. If you want to save OT and bring back old days, your solution should not be a "rule"

The funny thing is my response to dkun starts with the exact same reprimand! Really start sending those things around, darlin's.

But honestly, we can turn this around. Is posting "morning kyonko" and "morning slimfast" once every 24 hours such a big deal that it requires large, drawn-out narratives of dkun masterfully utilizing a glaive to exemplify how "bad" OT has become? No.
In fact, I can't say OT is as bad as anyone claims.
The point of avoiding shitposts was so OT's users could have a good time in the alienated subforum—didn't matter how. I have no idea how things were "back then" and I don't really care. I was having a particularly good time in OT today, and for some reason beyond my comprehension, modmins decide to take action. The problem is that I see nothing wrong here. OT has been acting as I would expect. Which brings me to my next point:
On that note, the only way you can get more users in here is to get people that would browse off-topic forums in circle-clicking, which is a pretty slim chance in itself.
Every Off-Topic always has the same standard. Back when I was in Bungie.net, the slogan was "if it doesn't fit anywhere else, it goes here." In here, it's "for the not-so-logical discussions." OT is always treated as the black sheep—the weirdo in the family. It shares a unique mindset with its users. Trolls are common, random, sporadic humor is the norm, and mods got to act like mini-tyrants but also as caring seniors towards the userbase.
The most important thing is that the forum can stay active by means others cannot afford—spam, shitposts, and otherwise being uninteligible. I stay in places like these just for that luxury of being stupi--I mean stupid.
(TL;DR) I don't know if it could be better, but it doesn't matter. OT's fine as it is as it has not fallen to absolute circlejerking and/or stagnant inactivity.

People that belong in OT will naturally flock to it, assuming they have the time and leisure to do that. It's how I ended up here, and I don't plan to go anywhere else anytime soon unless peppy decides to overhaul the website (which was why I left my previous board in the first place).Mara wrote:

It's funny how mad people get about osu! specifically. In games like League or DOTA I can understand being angry if someone deliberately wastes twenty minutes of your days by acting like a haddock, but if you find a bad map you can just... stop playing it, can't you?

Nah just kidding I'm not that big of a cunt and I also care about my posting privileges so I just tell them that I didn't like it for x or y reason.
And then they get mad at me and end up looking bad themselves. It's glorious.
Shit, this new rule is hard to abide by, it's like I feel the need to have conversations with people! Argh!
Alright, to make up for it, here's a random puush that may or may not be relevant and/or deleted.
I recommend this manga, btw. Pretty funny.
Personally I find precisely pointing out what is wrong, or rather, what I didn't like in the map and shove it rather forcefully in the mapper's thread, calling him a shit if needed, much more exquisite.Wojjan wrote:

Where the line between high and low bpm is at 180bpm or so
OD 9 can work on pretty much any Insane regardless of bpm. It's just that RooM wasn't an Insane. It was a Hard with OD so high it felt out of place. Though, such low bpm (~130 and below) wouldn't let you map anything more difficult than a Hard. In most cases.silmarilen wrote:

In the end it's just that very high OD on jump/aim-focused and on low-bpm maps feels forced and is generally unfun to play. It's fun on high bpm stream maps and that's where it should be used; not just thrown around on random maps. If people want high OD on random maps they can simply HR them.
