I don't get it. So is the implication here that, if you make a good enough shitpost, then you get pinned?

That kind of rule would be fair. But I don't think that's the case. After all, monstrata is a big name in the community. I feel there is some backdoor bribery going on here.

Consider: All the shitposts made by everyone else on this forum haven't been pinned ever. How can the work of one man outdo so many so quickly, so fiercly, and so... handsomely? Such a powerful shitpost, admittedly, but unfair that it is pinned because of...

Because of monstrata. Not the person, the name. This is the case of the upperclass having all the privileges over the middle and lower classes, we get abused at the mercy and pleasure of people like monstrata. In this case, monstrata is the face of the enemy. He is the person that represents all that we have been fighting against, our eternal nemesis - the aristocracy.

Down with the corrupt mods! Off with their heads! Burn the forums! Let us build from the ground up, a new Off-topic that will be free of moderation! Unshackle the chains, break their barbed whips upon your renewed body and seize the day! In the new forum, everyone will be equal, there will be no aristocracy to exploit you, no lower class to be taken advantage of.

To arms!

You telling us that mods have no pin vision to see who pinned the darn thing?

I thought mods avoid that like the plague. That's the only way I can explain why it is so shit

This thing discouraged people to create their own maps. If you really like a song but it hasn’t been mapped in osu yet, then map it yourself. Then work on introducing and popularizing that type of music YOURSELF. It would be a little boring to see only monstrata (and other well known mappers).
Another concern is how many people are willing to pay money to have someone map a song they like? Maybe it’s a lot of people, but I certainly wouldn’t.

This also discourages new players from venturing into the mapping world themselves, I think a big reason a lot of players try mapping is because they want to make an impact, they want to introduce new songs and styles of mapping to the community.



Again, I’m not sure if this applies for everyone, but i would not like mapping a song genre I’m unfamiliar with. Monstrata for example, I’m sure he’s capable of mapping tons of different genres, but he primarially maps his little anime songs or whatever. If someone payed him to map a genre or song that’s uncomfortable or that he didn’t like, the map probably won’t be however the person paying for it visioned it. Which ultimately means whoever payed just wasted some money. Maybe a little more selection than just handing over a song? Like, “do you want this map to be gimmicky, if yes how so? Do you want this to be mapped in my own style? Do you want this map to have challenging rhythms?” Which means whoever is being payed must have a large amount of skill and can adapt to whatever the commissioner wants.


Of course, this is just speculation. Maybe the mappers who applied are ok with mapping songs out of their comfort zone. Maybe there are people who’d actually pay. But my biggest concern is that it will discourage new mappers.

It’s like doing commisionary art, you can set rules, but that might lower the chances of business. You could say “art commissions - only fan art of attack on titan” or say “art commissions - anything’s fine!” The second one would increase your chances of selling, but you might have to work uncomfortably.

All in all, I hope whoever does make it on the team can bring a wide variety of mapping styles to the table.
