So the reason fun spoiler settings are locked during first play is to respect the mapper's wishes, right? Well, why not allow mappers to unlock fun spoiler for first play in their own maps as well? This way, the mapper's wishes are still respected, but the mapper could realize some people find the storyboard or skin annoying and allow users to disable it without playing it first.

too much to implement in the rare cases the mapper haven't played it once before.

No, I meant as mapper, they should be able to enable fun spoiler for people playing their map, not mappers playing their own map.

I guess you believe the reason you first have to play the map is because you have to see the hard work that was put into the graphical stuff and if the mapper is okay with it, let players enable the visual settings from the start..

I don't see how this is worthwhile to implement tbh.

Peer pressure would likely result in mappers who didn't want to enable fun spoiler on first play being harassed in hopes of them enabling it anyway, and some modders would probably go "This map ain't speshul enable fun spoiler on first play plzzzzzzzz." Furthermore, mappers who absolutely refused to enable fun spoiler on first play would likely get called some nasty things behind their back. "What an asshole." "He should go fuck himself." etc.

I blame underdeveloped frontal lobes.

P.S. Also, I swear that this has been requested before but I don't know where. :/ In one of the various threads that got derailed into a fun spoiler flame war, maybe?

I agree. Too much to implement for something that isn't going to make much difference and could potentially cause a lot of problems.
Fellow spectators, please give us your opinions. More posts, more certainty and discussion.

I don't recall any duplicates of this. I've read pretty much every topic in this forum since fun spoilers came out. My search didn't find anything either.
Gameplay & Rankings perhaps?

I support this.

This.

It's not that big of a deal to play the map once, seriously.

If you gonna change your map because you're afraid of some people bad-mouthing you on private chats then you have a problem not related to this game nor this feature.

I wouldn't mind this. I do not think "respecting mapper's creations" was the true reason why it wasn't allowed. peppy just doesn't want you to do it period and the only reason it was allowed, was most likely to better manage epilepsy concerns, and to prevent a backlash when he removes the ability to delete things from the folder.

It's up to peppy though.

I'd prefer the oppsite, as in, allowing mappers to fully locking visual elements on their maps so that they can't be disabled ever on Fun Spoiler Settings

You mean, like it was until now, which led players to either not play maps at all or delete their SBs?

Oh I agree! It would ensure that everyone is playing your map the way it is meant to be played.
