This is a good idea. If after their HOF write up, they've came back and/or gone on to achieve more noteworthy accolades then their write ups should be adjusted to reflect those achievements.

A few people, most recently @EtH and Dono, have been nominated to the Hall Of Fame despite there not really being a category that fits them. Would it be worth creating another branch of the hall of fame, that functioned essentially as a "miscellaneous HOF", for users whose legacy didn't fit into just specifically text battling, audio battling or track making? Other plausible candidates could include @NOBLE and @Godbody. I'm particularly interested to know people's thoughts on this, and whether anyone can come up with a more fitting name.

Yes. There should be a HOF'er category or 'status' also available for those who may not be the top in a certain battle field/track field but have yet contributed a lot to the site over the years they've been present. The impact they've made and so on.

In the case of Dono, i feel he ins't so much in this "category" as he's countless titles and has achieved enough as it is in those respected fields to be a HOF'er. He is a HOF'er, defo.

There seems to be a great deal of confusion over the nomination process itself. There is actually a relatively straightforward, if not-at-all-transparent, mechanism outlined here, however it requires @RULE to be active to process every nomination which unfortunately can't be the case forever. I think it might be time to come up with a better process to handle nominations. Purely having it down to a poll is not workable because of the extent that cheating and trolling often affect those polls, and because HOF is not a popularity contest. However, I think it's very important that the users have ultimate power over the inductions because it is their respect which makes the HOF valid.

This is a tricky one. @RULE's done a bang up job with the HOF'er shit... though i don't think staff should have to sit around and wait on another member of staff to return in order to maintain and keep the site running. If/when RULE comes back, if there's anything 'a miss' with the HOF write ups etc he can adjust them accordingly.

as far as the HOF thing goes i think RILE got more pull there since folks from way too many eras know him the best and he can tap on that rapport along with his own experience for the best feedbacks as well

the unfortunate thing now is because of all the bitching about why certain people ',shouldnt be in the HOF', when those people in question, do recieve it, they may or may not feel that its somehow tainted, or given to them begrudgingly.or on more extreme circumstances, out of pity.. in order for anything to move forward or improve , adaptation, and change is a key element . if there is a new prerequisite to include members who have made such a huge impact for the site that could be viewed as transcending thru multiple eras, then that shit in of itself is FAME worthy.. just imo.

Thats a fact.

Change is not always bad but dudes are acting like we're gonna be throwing everybody in the HOF.

The entire site ignores anything about the Hall of Fame unless 1 person brings it up then its the biggest topic to speak on lol. Theres dudes from way way back who ain't even get inducted yet because the site is so out of the loop but thats basically the advantage the newly active members have over the older members. They can drop a "No" on everyone's nomination even though they missed out.

Guys like @Nicholas wants to keep the place stagnant but he barely battles, vote, don't participate in tournaments, the FVC, help people elevate, contribute ideas, etc. Just pops up here and there but wanna tell LB how LB should be ran. Hes forgetting that not too long ago he was "Finished Here" and left his mod duties out to hang.


But anyways, Whats the point of having key elements if you can't improve them?

Rod Thorn was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame for being a coach, not for his ball play.

Respect the site impacters or just keep quiet.

Yall are saying were just nominating our buddies, but in the same breath are saying no to people because you dont like em. Most people saying no to eth, would lose to him. But his nomination isnt really about his battles. If you dont think he was an influential member, like alot more than most, you're fooling yourself.

And like, that's only like a partial honor. Like hey nerd, you spent a sixth of your life making waves on a rap battle web site. Like, all the time and effort hes given to letsbeef. Give the kid something back.

"Tbh I completely lost interest in the HOF after the recent spate of threads."

Manhattan, Mr Goodness, Lockhart, Seul, Godbody, Eth, IlloKwent.

You guys don't even appreciate the members who paved the way and built the platform yall currently log into. Yall aint got no respect for greatness.
