at this point it is what it is. if this is what we have to work with, we just all have to come to that realization then start contributing. at the same time, we've given years to a site that feels far too obsolete in 2016. that's the main issue. Online battling itself is dying, and not just LB. Why do an online battle when there's probably a rap battle league that's 2 cities away. They're all over Facebook and YouTube and while they'll never replace KOTD or URLtv I can see how they've replaced websites & online battling in general. the online element of battle rap itself is dying. you either make diss tracks or you battle in person... while LB took a step in the right direction by focusing on LIVE battling, LB was probably the main innovator/pioneer in online battling. So it's up to Pugz to usher in the modern era of online battling. if he doesnt take it upon himself to do that, we either keep LB alive and make the best of what we have or we move on.

Wasn't a step in the right direction. As you said, there's probably a rap battle league that's 2 cities away. So LB is just yet another bush league in the flock.
Plus, Letsbeef Live Battles, with the Letsbeef.com logo plastered everywhere. Guys are wearing LB hats, t shirts, everything. How cool is that? But wait, they are promoting Letsbeef.com.......and LB was fucking dead. Huh? What are they promoting? A dead as fuck website they barely even logged onto.
Pugz wanted to put together live battles with the pre-established branding of Letsbeef.com, but as Letsbeef.com had essentially failed to exist, he was putting the live battles together in the name of nothing. Pugz wanted to treat Letsbeef like it was the website for his battle league, when we wanted to treat Letsbeef like THIS was the battle site...cause that's why we were all here.
Instead of using Letsbeef Battles to promote Letsbeef.com, he did the opposite. There's no money in bush league battle promotion, but LB was already proven as a potential killer money maker for his big bro. Dude's just crap at business.
Just terrible ideas all round. To think of all the work put into that shit which could have been better used.
Anyways, I'm sure everyone's finally switched over to my side. Shame so many people wanted to defend the direction and brag about their contributions when they were too stupid to see that since 2012, we were always headed in this direction.
