Okay yous are gonna sucker me into it. This is how to get LB jumping;

1. Get LB off of X. This requires someone with absolutely no business acumen buying a site for too much money from a guy who doesn't care about it. Oh did I mention that LB operates at a loss? Yeah you're gonna have to pay monthly server fees for nothing in return. Awesome.

2. Delete everything. Seriously LB's only positive is it is SEO'd and some people have knowledge of it. LB is basically Bebo. When Bebo comes back, people are gonna be interested because the name is known and they have some good memories of it.

3. Pivot to video (lol). Change this shit to a Tik Tok style rap battle mobile app. LB worked because back in the day everyone was scared to show themselves. The anonymity of the internet was great. But in 2021 everyone is confident af and happy to put themselves on video. Whenever guys like KSI run competitions to get on his new song, they get hundreds of extremely talented people responding. Do that with a rap battle app.

4. Get a few stacks together through ads or patreon or something and get Conceited back for one of the battles. Go ridiculously heavy on his history with Letsbeef's old site. Basically use him as a site ambassador. If it seems to generate a buzz, get Trip C on board too.


No one's joining a text battle website anymore. The kids today watch 10 minute content at a maximum and consume all their information from 120 or whatever twitter characters. No one has the attention span to sit down and read a text battle, or post on a forum. Audio is pretty lame too. Everyone's all about video these days, and not some "Upload your YouTube video and embed it on the site" shit.

But yeah, LB is gone. The model doesn't work now. People barely even use "websites" anymore. You gotta keep shit with the times and a text battle forum website isn't cutting it in 2021.
