Adding "CtB" or "Taiko" in the diff name still necessary since there's no more confusion possible of wich play mode is a beatmap ?

This has been allready discussed before in the taiko community. And peppy changed the rule before Taiko-sets got even allowed, which is mostly unresonable @Rei.
Anyway, as long as there is no feature for finding a specific taiko diff. in forum and client, they should contain 'taiko' in its name, because else how are you supposed to find this map?
Another solution is to add taiko or ctb into the XXX-only sets.

Maybe you can find the maps now, which just contains the icon for their game-mode because you know the map or have it allready . But how will it looks like in the future when we have more then 100 maps and a player didn't downloaded a specific map yet? Search site for site?

I think you guys should support this instead rolling up old discussions: t/45381

Taiko should be in the tags then

Putting taiko+ctb in the tags should work pretty good. Maybe could be set as rule till the feature gets implemented.

Just to clarify, peppy disagreed with forcing any kind of naming as it should be always up to the mapper, he removed the guideline (or was it a rule?) about naming the taiko diffs "kantan, futsuu, muzukashii, oni" as they are pretty much the japanese names for the standard difficulties (aside from oni), so it didn't make much sense.

It makes no sense to change things which worked very well all 6 years in osu(okay probably taiko is not that long represent here) and which are in common use. So I don't understand yours or peppys view. Just an example: p/1813457
After the rule about tags has been settled they can call there diff's however they want. oO

tl;dr: Every mapper is free to name their difficulty however they want, there's no need for a difficulty naming standard.

P.S: Be mindful however that if there isn't a tag on all difficulties of the map, it wont be searchable on the website, which is why i welcome more a feature that allows to search for ctb/taiko diff inclusion or mapsets rather than going with extra tags on diff names or mapset, A feature like that will cover every single beatmap in the database, while tags or diff names cannot be changed easily after ranking (well tags can, but the change only works online)
It would be better, but I don't think we will get the feature within months. It's allready hard enough to discuss about new rules which are more like logic and obviously.

We was talking about that in the CtB rules thread and this affect taiko too, so :

I didn't saw any discution thread about adding "taiko" or "ctb" to diff names since the new update, the one showing directly an icon in the beatmap panel of wich mode specific is the diff.

So my question is : Adding "CtB" or "Taiko" in the diff name still necessary since there's no more confusion possible of wich play mode is a beatmap ?
