I don't know if it's already in discussion or even in progress... if yes you could just lock this. But i think it won't hurt to post this idea now.
The point is, now we spend 1 kudosu for 1 pink star = 1 priority, it will probably weights in the future, But for modders who gave out their kudosu stars before, it's more like a encouragement to the mapper, or show his confidence in his own map. (it's used for star spams also, but just few cases, because there're not so many people have lots of kud). It would be a pity that the modders who actually mod a lot won't have enough kudosu in the future to add stars to maps (no matter his own maps or others)
Have a quick look through the Kudosu Ranking, 10/50 of those top kudosu owners have <=10 kudosu left. It proves the kudosu waste thing is really common (well even myself is one like to shoot kudosu stars everywhere). And the spent... yeah... most of them have spend hundreds of kudosu (which is considered not important before).
So i think a kudosu refund may be needed, though it would be a huge amount and some guys will worry about the star spam thing won't stop because of this, but consider we already have lots of kudosu given and stayed in people's hand (James2250's 1115 kudosu, for example), it won't be a big problem. To make the thing at a balanced point, i think refund 2/3 of the kudosu spent would be a good idea.
That's all i guess...
