The influx of threads on this board is both good and bad.

It is fantastic that so many users feel passionately enough about the game that they want to see it improved through fine-tuning some of the questionable/borderline files in the game that are constantly under scrutiny.
It isn't so good when users are making threads with one word/line in the OP and letting everyone else have the discussion for them.


A good example of how a threads OP should look is seen here.

While the file is extremely technical, it is also lacking in terms of speed.

The opening mini-jacks are relatively simple, and don't collide with any of the jumps, with the exception of the splitting jump accents (see: [24] [13] [24] [34]), which aren't too difficult to string together because of the 34 giving a clear accent point.

The section after the guitar solo is quite difficult, and I will acknowledge that argument right away. While the jumps do add a bit of a challenge in terms of scoring, they also guide your hands into and out of the mini-jacks, which makes it somewhat easier to FC than just random scattered mini-jacks all over the place.

This is a song that seems to have a split difficulty reception, but I personally feel like it should be dropped to an 11 (and be left as one of the highest 11s in game).
- Concise reasoning
- Many valid points
- Followed by a suggestion of which direction the difficulty should be changed.


An example of how not to make one of these difficulty can be found here.

- No explanation is provided.
- Please note that posting images without an explanation to complement them is also unacceptable. We can't read your minds, so explain in detail what the images are illustrating.
- Simply comparing your performance/score on a file to other files/difficulties is inadequate, as it does not discuss the physical aspects of the file. It's the notechart that dictates the song's difficulty.

If your thread does not contain adequate reasoning as outlined in the stickies, your thread will not be approved for public view.

The most common problem I've seen so far is a lack of explanation due to the perception that "voting" only requires an agreement or disagreement upon a difficulty. Very likely, the term "voting" in itself may be misleading some users to make posts that are as informative as a thumbs up/thumbs down.

Keep in mind that all posts MUST be accompanied by an explanation. If someone has already stated reasons you agree upon, reinstate it and/or quote the person and acknowledge it. A post saying "+1" is insufficient, even if you're making a simple agreement with another post.
