I'm just done battling, that shit has alot to do with ego an mine has slowly fucked off as i've gotten older. I do want to continue doing music with people here though. An being I put in years here I want to see it flourish.

I feel like we in the same boat, that cocky energy kinda fades when you get older and humbler

So go ahead and claim how it’s such a free service to use while declining everyone’s free advice to use to build the place back up.

I honestly hate that there’s absolutely no chemistry between dudes like you and the users unless you’re riding each other.


dudes like me? im just a regular user bro... i have nothing to claim or present to you anymore to make you happy or mad with me.. im actually glad that burdens off me... peace of mind is a blessing... so not sure why your salty with me

My theory is that the current site doesn't have enough incentive to battle, the barrier to battle is high (requires voting, active members), the rewards are minimal (points, ranking) and some consider the voting system unfair. These are issues I am going to address in the new site.

Exact opposite.

People aren't battling because its about numbers. Some guys like myself never battles 300 times in a year and I was probably in the majority. But there were so many members in the month that even if 30 new people quit after like 1 battle, thats still 30 battles. Add in that lots of people battles over 100 times in a month, it all added up.

Your issue now is that people aren't battling cause they've already battled. There's so little members that Lock and Rai have faced each other 400 times. It's the same battles happening with the same voters. If even a single one of those people gets bored or tired of battling, which is a common thing, it's a HUGE impact for the site.

That's what the difference is.

I never agreed with incentivised battling. That means that when there isn't a league or tournament, no one wants to battle cause you'll waste all your good bars. Compare this to 2007 where guys just wanted to prove themselves against one another.

I agree i would like to see LB flourish, great site and seen some awesome talent here over the years; I'm game to help promote activity. I'll have a think of some ideas.

Brayne Ded 08-11-2019 07:34 PM

This thread speaks volumes about the state of LB. A few things I noticed:

1. "Old Heads" complaining that rookies or "New Heads" ruined the site by becoming staff and letting integrity slide? Where the fuck where the so-called "Old Heads?" Not to mention the fact that most of the "New Head" staff would beat the fucking brakes off these wack, lame-ass ghosts of LB's past making their resurrections lately.

2. Everybody is so eager to blame someone or something. Perhaps we just outgrew this outdated piece of shit site? I've seen the members blamed, staff blamed, owners blamed. Who gives a fuck? Blaming someone doesn't resolve anything. The site is belly.up, regardless. The shit's dead. No pulse. This is it for LB. New site or not, I highly doubt LB is going to garner the attention it once had when I originally signed up in 2013. It was a good run but it's done. Convince me otherwise.

3. Anybody who'd be concerned about the "new site" more than likely won't be left by the the time it is released. I'm not a big name, never have been, but I was an active user for a long time. I just don't care anymore. What will be great about battling the same 11 dudes on a different site and STILL waiting a fucking week for battles to close?

4. For this being the biggest subject of conversation right now, only the same handful of dudes comment about it. Punk is fighting like a motherfucker to keep this bitch going and no one seems to care. Hell, this the first time I've bothered to comment.


All in all, the site is dead. Set up a funeral date. With the way it's being managed and the general disconnect of the user base, we're not coming back from this. Nobody cares anymore.

A side note is that this isn't me complaining. If a new site is being launched then it'll be a big relaunch and hopefully you advertise it in some way. Adding or fixing things on this version is pointless.
