Title explains itself, mapper who changed their username after a map being qualified are currently required to disqualify, and add the new username in order to abide to the current metadata RC

Tags must include the following items when applicable:
Guest difficulty creators, storyboarders, skinners and hitsounders.
wiki/en/Ranking_criteria/Metadata#tags

The reason behind this proposal is to reword this part of RC so that disqualifying the map to add Guest difficulty creator's new username entirely optional.

Maybe rephrase like this?

The latest osu username of each guest difficulty creator, storyboarder, skinner and hitsounder at the time of the map's qualification.

maybe this isnt the best place to post this but can we also let the "Difficulty Owner" username be searchable when/if tags are not present?

I think disqualifying to tag their current usernames is a non-issue

Disqualifying to add a GD's new name is not an issue. If coordinated between the host and BNs, it's a 2-3 minute change and re-Qualification at most.

BNs don't get harmed by a name change DQ in the middle of qualified. It takes less than 5 minutes to apply the change. What benefit does this proposal give other than not wanting to deal with a quick harmless dq, which affects no one, for accurate searchability?

Almost the same as saying adding FA tags to songs that get licensed in the middle of qualified should be optional.

What's the reason to change it? This proposal is just "this is what it is right now, this is what it should be changed to" but never actually says why any of it matters lol.

I'd love to know WHY this proposal was made, what problem is it trying to address?

Cuz with the current rule, nobody gets punished for DQing to add a new username to tags and it barely impacts time-to-ranked.

>nobody gets punished for DQing

idk imo dqing is always a problem and a little hurting cuz not every 2 bns have time to insta reqf and at very least in my experience, reqfing could take days so that's just annoying

i support this unless devs finally implement so we could change tags from SITE without using BSS

statement "Disqualified Is Bad" shouldn't be a thing nowadays, since not every dq is a problem. its problem when it became issue gameplay wise or metadata just, wrong

namechange tag dq doesnt warrant punishment. slight inconvenient, i guess? but then, just wait for bn to requalified it again and remind them once in a while. and also it might be beneficial so why not adding the tags anyways

why waiting bns for reqf? just do anything useful while bns sort things up. something like gaming, hang out with friends, doing dishes, work, school, etc... will do just fine

I suppose the point is to just specify and make it well-defined about the exact timeframe the rule is enforced during the ranking process. Though DQ-ing for name change is a non-issue, the wording of this RC should be improved. (I do not have any preference between the two options though.)

We discussed this internally and do not believe this to be an issue that needs RC-side fixing

Moving this to finalized for now.
