Since peppy announced graveyarded maps not going to be available anymore... means that any map not ranked (but might be still popular map) will just get lost forever or you will have to explicitly ask for it in the forum which means its some kind of denying access to some good stuff. That's why I'd come with the idea of giving unranked stuff a 2nd chance.

With a 2nd chance I mean..... maps that are really popular but couldn't pass the rank filter because really tiny stuff...

Example: Foxytek vs Billx - 30's swing Tek map is extremely popular beatmap on multiplayer rooms, it isn't ranked because the "Insane" difficult didn't qualify. It happens that difficulty is the popular one that most people play, its well timed, its a great map but isn't ranked. The reason? Because as "Insane" it cannot qualify, doesn't meet the requirements for that difficulty, tho if name on that difficult would be changed to "Extra" or just "beatmapowner's Insane" would then get ranked probably.

So what's the request here? Add a feature on the website (like the Kudosu system but everyone can participate without needing those thingys) so every player can give 1 request per week to 1 beatmap set (or a concrete difficulty too) so maps accumulating decent amount of requests could be reviewed by BATs and with collaboration of everyone (community and bats) we could try to find where is the actual problem and if its something really stupid just fix it and make it ranked.

Please don't force us to check shitty popular maps
Most unranked maps are unranked for a reason. Either the mapper doesn't want it ranked (or lost interest) or the map is just plain bad

AncuL_, BATs are BN. Back in the days (when QAT didn't exist) BAT (Beatmap Approval Team) was the team to rank/unrank maps
Oh, and peppy announced it here t/49310, 5 years ago

@Bara- none is forcing you to check anything, I guess you didn't understand :o It's voluntary, if you want to to contribute or not.

Its like if I ask for a skin system (which already exist obviously) and you answer pls don't force me into skinning the game.

But ty for the comment, better than nothing.

What you're asking can already be done by yourself alone if you really care about a map: go search for modders for that map or mod it yourself. No one said you must reach a certain amount of "requests from the community" to make that happen.

Also, what Bara- said is true: it would mean forcing people (aka BNs) to check stuff they wouldn't check and there's nothing worse than something done with no will at all to do it.
Besides, did you consider the fact some mappers sometimes make little mistakes on purpose to not let the map going ranked? Maybe they have no time to care take for it. Maybe it was just supposed to be ajoke map. And so on so forth.

I personally don't see any positive aspect in this request. If we break it done to the core it will mean that every user will have the power to make someone do something. Really?


I'll just leave the request here since, well, it's just my personal opinion on the matter and it doesn't mean peppy won't ever do it either...

What you're asking for is essentially a communist kudosu system. And as a mapper with a moderate amount of experience let me tell you this; kudosu stars/star priority doesn't mean shit. If you go into the Pending and WIP maps you will find plenty of high priority maps. Some of them are iconed but a lot of them aren't. In most cases the ones that aren't iconed are like that because they're just bad. And no they're not because of "really tiny stuff" if that we're the case they could be fixed with a few mods and be ranked like all the other maps.

Wow
You say maps should be reviewed by BATs (or, referring to their current name BNs). FYI, I am one. I don't want to be forced to check those maps, and I highly doubt any BN will actually. Also, what players see as a good map, isn't neccessarily a good map quality wise. I've seen soo many popular maps which are actually so insanely bad, but are only hyped since famous people played them once (and never again) and put a great score on them. For example those jump-practice maps. People like those maps to train, and getting a full combo on some of them is really amazing. But should such maps ever get ranked? No, they should not, same as 99% of all the graveyarded maps.

Oh, I can already see everyone vote for maps as DeltaMax <Sprosive>, Big Money <Blue Dragon>, and similar maps, only because they are mapped by popular mappers and hyped by some pro players (note: I don't have anything against these 2 maps, I like them both, but it's mostly meant to show my point of view)
