osu! is something special.

young average age + many people using this game as a means of escapism. Tendentiously, both groups have lower social skills than the average person (escapists and children).
I also noticed that anime-centered communities had higher levels of toxicity than the average online-community. I'm not quite sure as to why that is. Maybe it is because watching anime is a hobby that is less likely to be shared with the peer-group, compared to other more "normal" hobbies (like playing battlefield or playing tennis or whatever). Being into anime correlates with people being isolated IRL, which correlates with people being socially weak in one way or another.
I have no idea why this community is so young though. But maybe someone else can answer that question.

That's like saying judging the league of legends community based on all the players in plat and below is a huge generalization and that not all ranked games are composed of autistic 12 year olds who don't know how to communicate with their team except for being able to call mid during champion select.Brian OA wrote:
Judging this community by #osu would be a huge generalization and an insult to all the respectable users you have yet to meet.
It means that #osu! is a pretty good representation of the majority of the osu! community.Brian OA wrote:

I see what you're saying, but basing my opinion of the community on the minority of respectable users is unreasonable. It's like basing an opinion of the counter strike community on the respectable professional players alone. Every community has their hidden gems, but generalizing a community based on a minority is ridiculous.silmarilen wrote:
if you want to base your opinion on the osu community on what you see in #osu then be my guest. your loss.
osu! is primarily a single player game. What's a better way to judge the community than by the global chat room? The majority of users do not even browse forums anyway.silmarilen wrote:
but what you're doing right now is like basing the wow community on what you see in trade chat
How else am I supposed to judge the community? Should I try to have a conversation with every user on the user list and then go from there? I may be judging the community based on a vocal minority, but there is nothing else for me to base my opinion on. If pm chat logs were made public I bet we would see a lot of what occurs on #osu! (rping, ranting about being bad, bragging about ranks), and thank goodness they keep that to themselves.Mahogany wrote:
But the majority of users don't actually use #osu because it is cancer. All the somewhat respectable people stay away from it because of how bad it is.
You're still judging the game community based on a vocal minority.

So you admit you're judging a vocal minority. Why?Flaus wrote:

Collab avatars are just a really nice way of showing you're friends with someone. I really don't see the problem with it.Flaus wrote:
I don't mean to offend anyone, but the whole "couples" and "group" avatar thing that has been going on also makes me cringe.
If someone asks you to briefly describe the osu! community, what would you say? I'd say it's mainly composed of a bunch of 12 year old tryhard roleplaying weeaboos with anime avatars and guys pretending to be girls who obsess over PP, DT and AR10 while ranting about not being as good as cookiezi. I don't know about you, but that's pretty much my opinion of the osu! community at this point. This doesn't really include the mapping, taiko, o!m and ctb communities, just the osu! standard community.Mahogany wrote:

OP
Yes, #osu is cringeworthy.
The osu community in general, though, isn't.
Entirely different things.
TLDR: You're judging the #osu community, not the osu community.

I'd say they'd have to be specific about which part of the community because I'm only familiar with the forums.Flaus wrote:

Good for you, but it's a gross overgeneralization formed from exposure to the cancerous parts of the community.Flaus wrote:

Are you serious right now? You've been here for a good year and yet you can't briefly describe the community? If I was someone who was interested in playing this game and asked you how the community is, you'd ask me to be more specific?Mahogany wrote:

The cancerous parts of the community are definitely the most evident.Mahogany wrote:

The cancerous parts of the community are definitely the most evident.I don't disagree, but that might say more about ourselves than the community in question.
Ticker/chat moves too quick to follow (at least for me). I can barely make out a conversation. I don't think the community is terrible (most of the randoms you'll find in multi are nice ^_^). I wonder what has become of #english and #videogames o.oFlaus wrote:

but i'll be honest, there are just certain people that really don't add up to the cancerous part of the community. like, i enjoy talking to people here but the only thing is, i don't access the irc and I only chat on forums.

I think what you see represents the community if you don't count all the people who do nothing and don't talk at all as the community.YayMii wrote:
Look at any big community, and I guarantee that you'll find plenty of unlikeable people on the surface.
Honestly, I've been active for long enough to know that the type of people you're seeing is a result of the type of game osu! is (aka the type of casual people it attracts), and the sheer size of the community (it wasn't this bad when it was less popular). What you see isn't at all representative of the community as a whole, but you just gotta accept that the ugly face doesn't represent the entire picture. The game has more community aspects than just the global chat, you know.
Pretty much what I've been trying to say the whole time, but people can't seem to understand this. You shouldn't have to make an effort to find out what a community is like, it should be evident.Khelly wrote:

First you need to understand, osu! is way too big for a single community, you'll find smaller communities all over the place, for example the forums alone (the part im most familiar with) has several communities with their own mindsets and such. As example, the offtopic community is vastly different from the one over at G&R, same can be said for FG and the modders. Each has their own group and for the most part keep to themselfes.
You're judging all these groups based on what you see on the #osu community, dont you think thats unfair? I can gurantee you, almost nobody here regulary chats in #osu, so why would #osu be representative for us?
If you'd want to take a proper look in order to judge the osu! community as whole, you'd have to talk with people from the sepperate subcommunities. Ofcourse, you dont need to talk with EVERYONE, but randomly pick a few and you'll find the people and communities all rather different to each other.
Ok, for the last time (maybe), with the exception of a few decent forum users and players, the osu! standard community is pretty cringeworthy. I generally don't include the taiko, ctb, o!m, forums and mapping communities as being part of the osu! community because they just keep to themselves all the time. Since the osu! standard community makes up the majority of the osu! playerbase, I'm basing my opinion of the entire community on them. This is because they are the most active and influential community out of all the osu! sub-communities. Communities are not to be judged based on a minority of members, but by the majority.Granger wrote:

#osu! makes me cringe because of the "12 year old tryhard roleplaying weeaboos with anime avatars and guys pretending to be girls who obsess over PP, DT and AR10 while ranting about not being as good as cookiezi.". The roleplaying, communicating though emojis, and blatant attention-seeking that occurs on #osu! is just so toxic to me and many others, and as a result good conversations rarely ever occur in #osu!. If only there was a chat channel where these sort of individuals can be separated from the respectable users, that would please me a bit.Ephemeral wrote:

also what you are doing is basically walking into a restaurant, ordering a meal, starting to eat it and then screaming WHY IS THIS PLACE SO SHIT at the top of your lungs in between bites of whatever meal you've got in front of you. the other patrons are looking at you like you're either completely fucking retarded, or offended that you're interrupting their meal with your caterwauling bullshit
please do expound upon what you mean by "cringe" so that i may continue asking you what you are doing about these problems other than complaining voraciously about them
