Here's something that could actually be implemented now:

Back in the day we had something called the FVC. It was mildly successful, but we should take it a step further.

I've been on all the major Battle Rap Sites other than this one and watched how they declined and died completely to the point they no longer exist. The key takeaways that contributed to their demise were these things:

1. The bar quality dropped. You had people walking around delusional scared to tell someone they sucked in fear of a hate vote. Which led to lightweight bars and styles being heralded as dope.
In turn this lead to the actual dope heads not even wanting to battle because whats the point if youre facing someone who in reality is ass but being regarded as dope (which leads to an inflated ego, and others who are on that lightweight level thinking they are any good as well.)

2. The voting. In KOTD they do a thing when battling for the chain or title where they have a set panel of judges that are respected vote on the battles. The voting primarily for tournament battles which is our bread and butter should be JUDGED BATTLES BY A PANEL OF RESPECTED VOTERS.The general public or non panel judges should not be allowed to vote on tournament battles. If the tournaments lose their value because of retarded votes it will continue to detour dope battlers from ever wanting to battle because there is no point.

How to fix it:



If we could have something called "THE PANEL" .. And get 7-10 judges that are dedicated to voting on all tourney battles, we could fix the bad voting, but also put some of these kids in their place. There is a reason why some of them have 0 VP. Some of them shouldnt even be allowed to vote on Championship or tourney battles and just be spectators or participants. Why, because they are legit retarded and dont even know if their own bars are good or not.

They are the type that hate vote. The type to self vote. The type to vote for someone in hopes they vote for them or they dont have the mental capacity to even understand what it takes to come up with a heavyweight bar or enough experience to even affect the outcome of what we herald as championship material.

They have to be dealt with.

In doing so maybe some of these slow cats will be put in their place and understand there's levels to this shit.

Require them to vote on other non tourney battles to show that they can consistently vote appropriately and have gained an understanding of what an educated vote is, and what a dope verse even looks/sounds like with hopes of joining "The Panel" in the future.

We set the example of what an educated vote looks like for tournament battles. Otherwise its going to lose all value and the few heavyweights we have around are going to leave for good.
