The negative hivemind and the inability for the BNG to think for themselves is exactly what's wrong with this community, by the way. We read off of a block of text, and if things don't line up and could potentially be a borderline case, we just take it down and don't discuss at all. No communication at all from the popping bn in either the thread or in discord and no communication at all from the people who believe it is wrong other than "well the RC said so!".
There can be no positive change in this mode when we deal with every case like this. Maybe you believe it's against the rules, but we pop without hearing the cases of others when it's borderline? Is this the way the BNG works? How do we evolve past things when any time we see something that isn't cookie cutter or perfectly meta, we pop it and just leave it to die?
As someone who has the most ranking experience of any mapper in osu!catch at the moment, I'd think that I know the RC quite well and I can understand when I'm treading the limits of what is rankable. I'd appreciate some respect from the BNG, especially the ones who disagreed, as well as some BASIC COMMUNICATION about the issue. I don't want to hear "these words say no", I want to hear your actual thoughts, and not some scripted shit you pulled up on a url. If you can give me some concrete basis to why your opinions are backed by the RC, we can maybe find a compromise. If you just say "ah well rules are rules that sucks", we're never going to find common ground, and that looks worse on you than it does on me. This is 1 ranked map out of 35 that I could have had if this was qualified. If we prefer to put down any mapset that doesn't fit your perfect-world scenario, then so be it.
