What about using a new system that utilizes social Media to help determine winners? X and I were talking about it.. It'd bring attention to the site and you'd have a lot of non biased.. Non lb members voting.. It's doable what y'all think?

It'd be simply who won between the 2options no out of 10 ,rating.. Just simple itd also give people incentive to promote their battles off site

The ability to promote your on site battles off-site, and vote off-site could be a MASSIVE devolopement for LB. But it also opens up the floodgates to unintelligent idiots who have no technical know-how about battling whatsoever, thus the potential and almost certainty of the quality of votes going down is definitely prevalent.
But, with that being said, this would also boost the range of voters substantially, and could EASILY lead to a large number of new voters.
But let me ask, what if you're like me and don't have a Facebook, twitter, etc?

Like I saw earlier in the post.. Some of the standards we have are really ttoo technical for the average person... On fb and yt its this guy won.. This guy lost... Speculate and debated in other forums. Most of the time there's a clear winner.. If we can promote to all the battle rap grps on social media.. Then we will get the best results... Maybe make it mandatory to have a fb acct to log into lb with or have one attached to your existing lb acct...it'd force people to make a fb acct but you don't have to make it with your personal info.. Also it defiantly opens the door to more voters AND cross promote s lb heavy on fb

^You know what..... fair enough.
@ Pugz.
This is a huge change if it takes place, I don't really like products that force you to use other products for them to work.. but if we did do this it really would open up the doors to MUCH more voting, more people outside of LBs target market seeing our battles and getting US emcees more fans, and the cross-promotion for LB is obviously not going to be a bad thing. Hmm. Sounds very, very interesting. I want to see what everyone else thinks about this tbh. Perhaps make a new thread with a poll if this is really serious @ Pugz? Just to gauge what the community thinks, obviously we don't have to make any changes right away. Either way, what do you guys think?

So, your idea to get members... Is to make the site more difficult for possible members to access?
Great idea, boss.

The Facebook thing doesn't make sense
I understand why you'd wanna integrate it, but forcing it on ppl wouldnt be a good idea
if anything, I'd say definitely integrate Facebook, but code it so that a Facebook voter has 1/2 the voting power of a regular LB member. this way people actually have a voice on FB but the LB member..who's more educated on battling, has a more powerful voice
..but then I see a host of problems coming w/ the FB integration too. like LB members making several FB accounts to vote for themselves and rig outcomes

@ Godbody I'm liking that here but not forced idea. Also, yeah, you can't really block self voting once that kind of thing happens. Only more technical people like Mindless, me, etc will know what to do but tbh its not hard at all to change your IP and look anonymous so I would definitely think of a work around for the self voting that opens up with this idea.
