I'm going to sound like a bit of a douche here but here's an observation from a lot of years on Letsbeef. Being a vet doesn't mean you can run a great crew, it means you get a headstart on attracting members in the beginning but that's all. So long as you have a decent amount of respect you can run a great crew; look at Me, Eth, X-Calibur that's AC's, Bakers and Apoc and I'm just naming recent crews. I wouldn't call any of us vets, we're experienced on the site and we have a decent level of respect but we're not HOFers. Over the years I know Eth has started or ran some brilliant crews, I've ran a lot of Top 5 crews but nothing legendary (until now, Bakers are coming though  ) . Actually, come to think of it look at HVK he started Classick, I know Rule kind of took the baton but he started it and ran it for some time.
Some people make great leaders, others can't run a crew to save their lives and that's fine. People are different, just because someone sucks at running a crew doesn't mean they can't be a great member or sick battler.
This whole elevation crew stuff is new anyway, back in the day you got in a decent crew if you were a great battler. If you weren't, you didn't. I think this is a product of there simply not being enough great battlers out there atm, so we have to help build them up. That and a lot of the truly good battlers that are around are tied up in Murda..... fuck those dudes.

Credits work to a degree but they're flawed. If someone has a period of voting a lot then they can sit back and not have to vote for months, or even forever (like myself, I could never vote again). I think credits should be temporary, perhaps they should only last a month and then they reset back to 0. ( @ Pugz what do you think?)

Great idea again... that would have people needing to vote every month.. I like this.. all in the name of SITE Elevation.. Crew elevation comes second.. no site.. no crews to worry about..
Lets keep building..

@ Duh Great Whyte @ FreezyCT If you aren't here to put in any valuable input to help the situation, then you don't have any right being in my thread. So get the fuck out.
You are so completely two faced that it isn't even funny at this point, Whyte

i agree w/ Duh Great Whyte... how can u criticize MM for stoppin voting @ Lockhart wen u are in two of tha sites TOP CREWS?? like u cant vote on me n dissizits tag team battle because shu is in BSI?? at tha same time LoD can't vote on battles w/ shu as BSI cant vote on battles w/ Lock.. shits only adding to tha problem.
But yes, me n dono are planning on disbanning tha dojo.. jus tryna get tha yunguns prepared before we ship them off, or promote them to MM...But I WILL NOT KICK ONE MEMEBER OF MA CREW jus for tha sake of a couple votes...
dont know if ive repeated anything or took a step backwards from where tha thread was goin.. jus put in ma face value.
BUT I DO AGREE, U can't blame a battle havin two votes on one crew having alotta members wen there's 100,000 niggas on this site. ppl need to start voting... I see this shit everyday.. ppl will literally not vote unless u post in their thread, like IF U ARE NOT FVC THEN NO ONE SHUD HAVE TO GO THREW ALL THAT EXTRA SHIT JUS TO GET A VOTE. Jus click on tha link read tha verses and help make tha site better rather than complain about what's not being done.
lastly, @ Duh Great Whyte.. Lock asked me to tell u to shut up please. so yeah, i guess thats out there now.

@ Lockhart drop me a link to this Punk text tournament battle and I will drop an FV on shit.
ALSO, as you all may be aware, I have been trying to vote on both text and audio. I encourage others to cross formats when it comes to voting in order to make the site more active. Props to Lockhart and other FVC members for starting to do the same…. thats good lookin'.
ON THE OTHER HAND, I don't think breaking up double crews is the answer… as it also has clearly started conflict between active users who we all prefer not to fall off.
@ GRizzEAT
Instead I think the site needs to obviously boost membership, which can only be done partially through more activity.
VOTE ON BOTH AUDIO & TEXT is a decent first step solution that may help solve this problem.

No need for elevation crews. I took @ Subreal under my wing and he was not in any crew of mine.
