Lets Beef - Battle Rap Forums - View Single Post - GodLike banned for self-voting

It's not typical for staff to announce when a user is banned, but in certain cases where the battler is very prominent and/or there has been a big controversy, we may post a thread explaining the situation to the community. This is one of those times.

User GodLike, who was #1 in this season's rankings last I checked, has been linked to several accounts he was using to vote for himself: AutoGraff, Nef Rawkus, Truckz, TheVixen, riceNbeans and FatSo. Self-voting is completely against the rules of Letsbeef.com, and the spirit of competing in rap battling, and so all of these accounts plus GodLike's main account have been banned for 1 month.

The evidence that links GodLike to these accounts includes various direct evidence (which we can't share publicly because it includes things such as IPs) and circumstantial evidence, such as the timings of account creations, votes etc. If anyone knows anything else about any other possible self-voting (involving GodLike or any other user) please bring this straight to moderators, as we are the ones with the tools to investigate and act upon these things (if you suspect a moderator of breaking the rules, "Report Battle" raises the issue directly where admins can see it, or you can directly contact the site which mods will not see).

Battles where GodLike used these accounts to self-vote will be overturned and given as auto-wins to his opponents. Because there are so many accounts it is very hard for mods to check every battle comprehensively, so if you lost a battle to one of these accounts and see that one of the other accounts voted against you, please contact me with the link so I can make sure you get justice.
