This thread is not for discussing how FA\/other groups should work.And if FA won't let you in why not put in the effort to make your own group? Everything starts with effort. We aren't against seeing more interesting mapping teams forming. This used to be a more commonplace thing in the past and it resulted in really creative projects.<\/blockquote>what is the point in responding to this? it was just explaining how it worked to someone lol. I posted other issues you have yet responded to about the hypocrisy with this whole thread\/statement where you want the music creators permission to use their content, and we have FA which is supposed to be the sole ground for licensed mapping content, but for some reason only mapper's guild is backed up\/rewarded by staff for mapping FA content instead of any regular . Then you say yourself anyone can it(which is untrue), making people feel like if they wait til they get into the group then they can get the rewards. Or you take a large part of the mapping community who is a fan of most of the mappers in mapper's guild due to the popularization of pishifat's \"educational videos\", and you ask them to map FA. Why should they when their favorite maps of the songs are already out? Not to mention many of the already FA songs that are out are borderline unmappable especially for standard, but lol.as for the comment on other things, osu!team wrote:<\/h4>we have decided that all of any osu! team involved in the ranking process (e.g. Beatmap Nominators, Quality Assurance Team, etc)<\/blockquote>So BN and QAT are part of osu!team or you could say \"staff\" no? but we want to pretend like all the songs being pushed as official content in osu! that isn't licensed is something osu! doesn't know about?<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n <\/span><\/a>naitoshi isn't a mapper<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n h3oCharles<\/a>\n\n \n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n 1,509 posts\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n ed July 2016<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n h3oCharles<\/a>\n\n \n 2018-12-13T16:08:43+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n is it REALLY that hard to say that the origin of this problem is Sotarks?

Still I agree with the point that there is no really sense to pick music from FA if you not in MG unless you really desperate to map exact track. Not because rewards but mainly because of releases availability and through ranking process which currently in the wild as none as for unlicensed content, wish this was on the \"team\" priorities radar as well as fighting with commissions.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n Last edited by Sieg<\/a> 2018-12-13T16:29:31+00:00<\/time>, edited 1 time in total.\n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n Acylica<\/a>\n\n \n Elite Mapper\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n 297 posts\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n ed September 2012<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Acylica<\/a>\n\n \n 2018-12-13T17:59:17+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n lol<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n \n Pachiru<\/a>\n\n \n Global \n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n 2,957 posts\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n ed June 2013<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Pachiru<\/a>\n\n \n 2018-12-13T18:10:54+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n h3oCharles wrote:<\/h4>is it REALLY that hard to say that the origin of this problem is Sotarks?

Please take responsibility for your own actions. There are many mappers that ask before using content from others. There are many tracks we have cleared for use which aren\u2019t necessarily listed under Featured Artists (you\u2019d be surprised). Saying 99% of content is \u201cunlicenced\u201d (if you\u2019re just looking at FA) may be correct, but I\u2019d argue much more has been acknowledged\/approved.As we tried to make painfully obvious in the original statement, no rules have changed in of how we control your s (for now; EU rulings may change that). We can\u2019t change rules because we work under existing obligatory laws. Do your own research and decide how you act on this online platform, plese.<\/blockquote>Yes, TOS has covered this. But there has been little, short of nuking anime episodes, that is done to combat unlicensed material. I'm rather skeptical of \"many mappers\" asking to use content before ing maps. Especially when it's mp3s. Backgrounds\/wallpapers there's a healthy amount of mappers who try to give credit which is good. But it's the mp3 we're more concerned about. Maps are built around the song, not the background after all. I'm also interested in why we don't have a list of \"cleared\" tracks then, if there are \"many tracks that are cleared for use\". I'm also interested why we continue to allow beatmania\/konami\/etc.. songs to be ed and ranked even though these sonds were blanket 'ed in the past, but this is probably something we'll want to push with a new Ranking Criteria change. Basically, what is to stop me from reporting every map currently in qualified, and claiming that the mapper does not possess a license or right to use the mp3 they ed for their map. If the mapper is unable to give evidence, aren't osu!staff obligated to nuke the map? Because it is therefore ing infringing material no? Put simply, how would ing an unlicensed mp3 be different from ing an unlicensed anime episode at that point. What if I had ed Funimation and had received the rights to that Attack on Titan Episode 1 beatmap lol. I'm just raising this as a foil because osu!staff was certain in their decision to nuke that map (which is fair) but seems to turn a blind eye on the same thing being done if it's just an mp3.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n Irreversible<\/a>\n\n \n osu!
