Quit it with that fucking bell curve shit too. Also been blunt will help everybody ALL the time. Nobody likes been taking for a fool or sugar coating anything, be straight with people so they know where there going wrong and how they can improve. I'm not bashing you for voting the way you did, I see it from almost every member on the site.

However, for a member of staff i would question your voting power due to your mentality. No offence.

My whole point was that I rate people based on their field of competition. UA and DaddiO may get a 10 if I'm comparing them to other members of LB, but not if I'm comparing them to Nas, Rakim or other artists that I listen to. The same goes for Savage and Dru or anyone else that I would rate...I would be comparing them to other LB members. If you think that's not a realistic voting rubric, that's your personal opinion and I honestly don't give a shit. I respect your opinion and you voting however you choose, but if you can't respect mine, you can honestly fuck off dude. I'm sorry.
As far as what I can or cannot compare a verse to...I'll let you worry about comparing whatever you want to compare...and I will continue to compare and weigh verses the way I see it. This is EXACTLY what's wrong with this site. I don't think its so much about people not knowing how to vote, but people thinking that if you don't vote or rate exactly the way they would have, then you're not a good voter.
Being blunt will help everybody all the time? Right, that's because you know everybody. And you have no idea what my mentality is dawg...but you can go ahead and question it all you want. Not every staff member votes the way you think they should vote all the time either. But you can see my votes and ratings and feel free to criticize.

I'm starting to feel some hostility and I think it's due to the fact you've realized your in the wrong. Your basically saying you have a set rating system and your judging everybody's verse by the people you know to be "legends".

i.e

10- UA, Daddio, Nas, Rakim
9-
8-
7-
6-
5-
4-
3-
2- Mind Fuck
1- Bush Monkey

I will be blunt with you right now, STOP SUCKING DICK!. You rate a verse from 1-10, simple. The only reason this conversation is still happening is because of your ignorance and for some reason, other members have not bashed you over your inexperience in terms of voting. Read what RULE said, then read the comment you left on that battle.

Your voting on battles comparing them to people that are not battling and famous rappers. Yet your telling me that's the right way to vote, regardless. Stfu. Somebody take this kids voting power.

I'm not going back and forth with the same discussion cause it's already getting repetitive. I'm not telling you or anybody how to vote or who to vote for. Your mentality is corrupted when it comes to voting. Anybody will tell you that.[COLOR="Silver"]

i read the battle... the expo is dead on... i still think a 4 is kinda harsh though... realistically i woulda gave it a low 6 mid 5... without that wordplay at the beginning... didn't help at all so 5 5 is about right... but being guilty of giving a lil higher votes just to keep the peace i woulda gave it a 7 6... that's just being real... we all do it... can't hate astro for being realistic though...

Dude, you've totally misread everything I've said in each step...that's why this conversation went as long as it did. I am not comparing anybody to famous rappers that are not battling. I've told you time and again I AM COMPARING THEM TO OTHER LB MEMBERS. At this point, I'm not sure if you don't get it or just don't want to get it.
I don't care how long you've been on this website or what your rank is. If you think your opinion is any more valid than someone else who's voting fairly the way they see it just because they didn't pick your winner or give the rating you would have given, then you're ridiculously gassed!
Aside from hate and buddy voting that sometimes happen on here, people have legitimate reasons for voting the way they do, despite whether you agree with it or not.
You're not telling me or anybody how to vote or who to vote for? If you're saying I should lose voting power, then that is EXACTLY what you're doing! Because everybody who doesn't vote to your liking as I have done will lose vp. So as far as I'm concerned, YOU'RE CORRUPT.
If you feel any hostility, that's because you didn't approach me with respect. You're so stupid that you fail to realize that preferences can never be wrong. I told you that I respect your opinion and however you choose to vote...but you're telling me how to vote and that I should lose vp. You need to check yourself, straight up.

yea ive noticed id drop a 5 minute key'd up verse that would be a 5 at best but they still get rated 8-9...

an average verse gets like a 7-8 when in reality a average verse is 5....7-8 would be a pretty dope verse and a 10 would be a flawless perfect verse....ive recieved 10s on verses that were no where near perfect

I've read everything you've typed. Dont take me for a fool.

To put it simply. Your rating verses in comparison to "legends" verses and not the true rating of there verse. Vp = 0.
