I've said all of this before, so I'm sounding like a broken record. I've already had my main account permabanned, so I'm not sure why I even logged in to check out the health of a site I used to care about.
So long. If yall ever get this shit back to being a respectable community of artist then you can unban my main account The Ghost of Freak and I can help out. Until then, farewell.

i think it's a good idea to expand the site to focus on "rap" as a whole, instead of battle rap which is a specific niche within the genre.

Too little, too late. All the passionate dudes are gone. This battle here is a good representation of the current state of the site:
https://www.letsbeef.com/battle_deta...n=tb&id=513672
The decent battles are too few and far between to really necessitate another team of mods. Y'all always worried about the wrong shit. Voting is only pertinent if there are battles worth voting on. Battles are taking weeks to close (I have one almost 2 days past the time it was supposed to close.) Nobody cares about voting anymore. There isn't a reason to. I'd say over half the battle feed is bullshit battles with bullshit votes. There's no excitement left. No official tournaments. No good battles. There isn't much going on nowadays, in terms of skill. How is bringing back mods voted in going to help? Deleting 1 of the 2 votes a battles gets in 5 days and making it take 11 days to close? Reranking battles that did close due to bullshit votes? What if all 3 votes are wack? I just don't think this is a solution to anything right now. The original decision to end mods really put a dent in things and creating new ones isn't going to fill the void created by alienating the previous staff and members.
Plus, with voting now lacking any incentive, I suppose it will be up to the "new, Democratic Mods" to vote on battles like that one I posted the link of? God speed to whoever steps up to that plate ... You'll be deleting a ton of shit.

If I can find this same exact “the site is being built” response from a post back in 2012, will you delete your account?

Shits been a flop for years. If the clowns like you can't admit that my point is written in stone. This site will continue to flop I don't care if it gets an overhaul and has all types of new features ownership just doesn't have the vision to make it succeed

At best this place will be overrun with trash ass rappers and all the advancements the cream of the crop made on here will devolve back to 2010 level shit it's already on its way there. That's the biggest L for this site to take possible imo. I give a fuck about the craft more than this site and it will continue to suffer without a doubt
