it's not just mapper who get the negative stuff from DQed... the BNs also get penalty point
i'm new at mapping too, and asking BNs is the hardest part of getting your map ranked cycle. so the key for this is.... make sure your map is decent first. then ask BNs when they absolutely not doing anything urgent.
Well, the "decent map" part isn't a real argument. BNs can't know if it's good or bad without checking it. So it implies they checked it in the first place.

why don't try forum PM instead? some is open checking via forum PM. tho it's just about lucky your map get noticed or not... but at least it get more attention cause you ask it directly.
Already did that a lot. I managed to get an answer yesterday, for the first time in my 3 years of mapping. Looking at that awful ratio, I can say that it's not a very effective method, because most of the time you won't even get an answer.

i've much BNs friend... but it's still hard to find who is free to rank my map
Osu shouldn't be about getting the highest relations possible to have better chances to enjoy the game. I love to play, I love to map, but I don't like to spend time talking to people who mostly (not all) see themselves above the others because of their rank.

Well, do you spend 2 years trying to rank a simple map, but can't because BN/BAT ignore your requests ? I don't think so. Yes, one of my maps is 2 years old.

You can't force a BN to mod specific maps so it won't help if you throw BN tokens a them tons of times. It will be about as ineffective as throwing lots of mod requests at the BN.
As I already stated, we shouldn't do that, normally. But looking at how new mappers are ignored, it may be a necessity. These mappers need Bns to improve their mapping, but get ignored by BNs because they aren't as good as Elite Mappers.

lolwut? Was that "do you want your map modded? Become BN first!" kind of statement? Just ubelieveable...
You can have all my stars for the idea
i'll try to say what lust want to say
as long as you still modding (doing m4m in this case) you can get to BN more closely. after you get point of modding you can become BNs...
dude... why don't you literate them ;w;
You still don't change that fact that Lust clearly said that to be ranked, you need to be a BN. Modding has nothing to do with that, since Kudosus are useless and don't help mappers in any way. And lots of BN clearly state in their queue, that you can M4M them, but it won't guarantee a mod in return (I don't have any example right now, I'm trying to fin the 2 BN queues where I saw that, and will post them once I've got them).
So, if you're not an Elite Mapper or a BN, even M4Ming a BN won't help you.
