I think it would be cool to put some sort of alert like that into osu!.
It would probably be annoying if you got PM's, so maybe something that is just when you're in game, to spur on friendly competition?

Eh, I'm against this. With more than a couple of friends, one would constantly be getting messages and it'd be more annoying than useful imo.

Argument against a toggle:

Why create a feature and let everyone disable it?

I don't see it as useful really...I just look at the scoreboards.

Not useful.

Because different people have different tastes, and games are meant to be fun. Your argument is a bad argument. There are other case-by-case arguments that are good against toggles for specific options, but this is not.

Personally I think this is not needed.

Three people currently have posted support. Five posted against it. I have a feeling many many people will disable it.

Does something have to be useful to be a positive asset to a game? Of course not.
I think this would introduce something new to rank whores, and it would be a nice addition.

Of course, it all boils down to whether or not peppy likes it.

Yes but the argument that you can just look at the scoreboard means you have to check ALL the maps you have a good rank on. If you're pretty good it will be quite alot. Even though this doesnt even have to be a alert but maybe just something on the webpage where you can see if someone passed you. (instead of just lost rank 1 only)

"Many" is not "most". Although 8 people is hardly any evidence in either direction, a 5-3 spread to me seems pretty even, which would mean that people would spread quite evenly to those who want the feature and those who don't, and that's a good place for a toggle.

I'm not commenting on this case specifically really, I'm making a more general point.

That's right. That would be more popups. I can't put up with them already. :x

I'd be fine if this was on the profile on the web (along with "you lost #1!" notices).

That would actually work better.
Something like the ranking charts per song, maybe?
