For many years has there been a debate within the community whether to remove notelock or not.
Notelock is a feature in osu! that prevents you from clicking the next object if your click is within the previous object's hit window (If that previous object had not been hit)
What this causes is that if a player were to have misaimed a note, the player might miss the next note, and maybe many more notes as well due to this feature being there stopping people from clicking.
I have only mentioned the negative sides of notelock without getting into the positives but that doesn't matter right now.
If we were to remove notelock completely, this would break all scores done in the past 10 years as they did not have this feature disabled. Also the fact that notelock overall is a very healty feature for the game, especially for new players.
My suggestion is:
Add an option to turn it on or off. With it being on as default.
This would end all controversy regarding the subject and also prevent all the problems players face because of the feature, while keeping all the positives as well as the new player friendliness it provides.
