Regardless, the site’s improved its features and competitions. That’s like saying ILLOKWENT didn’t become one of the greats because he’s only LBT King.

Do I look permabanned? What a stupid uncalled for question. Obviously I didn’t unban myself, pedo.

ILLoKWENT did more than win LBT. Lol. He won the Concept and another orange tourney, I believe. Anyways, I am not in any way shape or form saying any new ideas or features to be cancelled. I'm simply arguing for a more nuanced way of comparing guys from different eras. If you love this list and are satisfied with the results, then that's good. More power to you and props to Lil Talent for taking the time to share his perspective.

It’s all about preferences so no ones wrong here tbh. Good to see your view on it.

Yet they’re still respected for all the work they’ve put in. So your opinion here don’t count.

Tournaments aren't the only measure of someone's achievement after all.

I toyed with the idea of factoring battle record into it, but decided against it for two reasons. Firstly, too many of the people in question have at least one major account deletion, so it isn’t possible to get their battle records accurately (Bleu, Lockhart, PaiNN, Row, Rant, Rai, Ticket). Secondly, because then Bnas would be GOAT
Finding a way to factor defeating other people on the list into the equation would be good though, although I have no idea how it would be done. But thanks for the suggestion!

There was consideration given to weighting tournament wins based on the number of accolades among the field that partook in the tourney? This would probably disadvantage those in the really early days when only a handful of accounts from that era got tourney wins but I guess it's the best idea I've seen for it so far.
As far as the LBT/LBA(/LBTT) belts being around only in the recent era, I think this is somewhat countered by the existence of the Letsbeef.com competitions, which mostly seemed to run in the older days and stopped several years ago. For instance, Punk only won one of them, despite being a Track HOFer, and this has substantially held back his score on the "Greatest Track Makers of All Time" sublist (speaking of which, I have sublists for Audio Battling, Text Battling & Cyphering, Video Battling and Track & Music Video Making which I may post if the interest warrants them). I'm sure there are way more LB.com competitions than are displayed in the forum page, but I have no idea where to find them, maybe uncovering these would even the playing field some more?

The site being three users? Let the show roll on LT.
NOTE: @ RULE already put this kind of system together years ago. Official thread is here: https://www.letsbeef.com/forums/showthread.php?t=128666

My mistake, the earliest records I can find date from 2011. I do think it's an issue that battlers from the 2006-2009 period are very difficult to accurately rank, although a lot of them are HOF despite not having any titles so I guess that somewhat evens things out, for instance WAR TANK/Warren Peece is =61st. I guess a rankings list based purely on talent and ability not results is the only way to give the 2000's battlers a shot at being top unfortunately.
