Recycling

The irony of how ironic this is will be iconic once shit starts hitting the fan. I'm going to re-quote this so that we're all clear that we're following the rules to the letter. Those that know what I'm talking about...well.....they know what I'm talking about...

Because I feel like it? Lol don't worry, soon enough you'll know exactly what I'm talking about, and it has nothing to do with you. Just make sure you remember what you said and you keep that same energy.

This is why we need a clear, comprehensive ruleset posted where everyone can easily find it. And, as far as I know, there isn't.

This.

The rules that exist haven’t been updated since 2012. This became an issue not too long ago when biting punishments didn’t match what was listed on the official site rules. The section needs an overhaul with clear examples and definitions of each infraction to avoid these sorts of issues.

when i was a mod, i was making this with shodans help, but that was close to the time everything blew up. also on a side note, there have been like 50 rules changes made by mods, so there's very few "set in stone" rules on lb.

set in stone rules

1. dont use others content
2. don't reuse your own content
3. don't be an extreme racist/bigot
4. dont self vote

OH SHIT I FORGOT!

x had me stop writing the rules, because after that shit with rant, he decided to hire a lawyer to write out a set of rules. i'm not sure he ever did that, but hey, it could still be in the works.

when you sign up now, there's like a ,.. Terms of service, that seems like it was written by a lawyer, but tbh ..

The rules and what was put in the "contract" ,felt like signing a slave deal just signing up here..lol i guarantee it's not valid..plus.. that BeatDisk thing they had, had beats for sale but people could rap over them for free on here, which had to be a crime..defeated the purpose of selling,for every feature for free, you costed us the price of the beat..
rules be flimsy depending on who it is, sometimes..

Anybody ever see a league owner DQ someone for reusing their own bars in a battle? NO, cause it's their battle, their bars, their choice.

Picture SMACK jumping in & cutting someone off mid verse tryna DQ them over a re used bar. LMAO fuck outta here! It is what it is though. Let LB be as nerdy as possible, I don't care.

Like Rieper said, the site's got rules.

I just want people to consider the point of view that I'm looking at this from.

Say you write a fire bar, I mean flames, (not talking about mine just in general) then the battle only get 3 votes. Ain't that some fuck shit? Ya telling me you shouldn't be allowed to reuse your own bars if you choose to? I completely understand that people would start doing it, but at the same time, at that point it's on the voter to do their part & vote correctly. If they've seen a bar before from the same person, just keep that in mind & judge the verse off of that as well. Which means that alone could cost that person the battle. SAME way live battles work. The crowd will either fuck w it again, or boo the mufucker nahmean. LB's trying so hard to branch off from text battling but stay stuck in ways that keep it a online text site. Just my opinion.

Anywhere outside of a website, it ain't cheating. I ain't sugar coating shit. If that was the case I would have approached this a lot differently. Fuck boii.

Sit down when grown folk talk.

'I'm a dork' ...LMAO

What a clown.
