Ever wonder what will happen to osu! when it will achieve so much popularity like today's trending games...

Here is my guess:
1. Beatmap, beatmapping, streaming and other osu-related words will be included on a dictionary
2. Worldwide tournaments and sponsors
3. New players would likely to ask in the feature request for ports
4. Non-working cheats (more likely spam) for osu! will be uploaded to the internet
5. osu! will accumulate over 10 million users
6. Some periperals will have a osu branding on it
7. osu! will change... definitely (including the community)

What do you think? I hope this won't happen :P

if we're mainstream, then we should have at least 1,000,000+ online users everyday

That won't happen tho'

I don't think there are enough people that are interested into osu for it to go mainstream :(

I agree.

Also, don't forget the amount of multi accounts. And we are not allowed to ask for ports at feature request (at the moment).

It would be terrible to deal with copyright claims.

I agree with you, but still I wouldn't mind more people / if some of my closer friends would start aswell, or people nearby.

If osu became truly mainstream, i think that would be tremendous as it would increase the player base, oh and i would be able to leave my attic XD

I'm fine with it going mainstream BUT... god if we 'inherit' the type of kids that play League or COD, RIP this community being of anything significant. I think I would quit if on the forums I just read random stupid posts just saying 'fag' or 'hahahahaha youurrr nannnss fat' seriously I know we are all socially awkward but it takes a special kind of person to be that kid on COD who (wants to start to chat) but instead of saying 'hello' screams into the mike or makes retarded sounds...because apparently saying hello is to hard *rant over*

R.I.P. in peace osu! forums if that ever happens.

But don't worry, we have moderators (although they put up with so much each day I)

Moderation would be much worst. Oldfags wont handle the flood of complains the newfag might say.

I have trust in the mods. the current community is quite good, and we still get ruled with an iron fist.
