That's how I don't get twitter. I've unadded SOOOOOOOO many Farmville cunts on FB, so if someone on twitter spammed for money like Pulse does, I wouldn't listen.

And both you and mainly eth and V are missing my point. I'm not asking the man to go ham and promote L.B heavy. I'm talking about 1 simple mention. Promoting our twitter for free isn't an excuse for not doing that lol. Like I said earlier I appreciate Pulses efforts in the past but that doesn't get you a pass from making 1 measly mention for the cause.

I'd do it if I was him, but I understand why he wouldn't. I had someone on chat saying we should "boycott" LB, and the fact that I'm not topical mod is like a gay protest on my part. Until LB does some changes, people will be doing this shit. No doubt if LB went full force progress, Pulse would throw it a mention.

But going slightly off topic. I agree with most of what you said Verity. It's like the Chat only being for exclusive. it's ridiculous to me. Exclusive is a dead horse right now. it be better just scraping it entirely for now. make exclusive perks available to every member who joins. meaning more track activity, more crews, you get the point, to boost activity, then bring the exclusive fee back when it's actually worth a shit (V4) Just bin exclusive already. ya already handing em out like candy anyway. nobody renewed them with monies last time they expired. we gotta be the only site that charges to post music lol. shit is stupid.

Chat should be exclusive, just for forum activity (BBE/LT's was dead as a result). V4 is never coming, but I agree with everything else.

Words to fill space...

Exactly @Just C just close down exclusive. When LB starts making money from advertising, bring back exclusive membership and offer the only thing that people really want - MONEY - cash tournaments, prizes, etc etc. But for now they need to low the exclusive but Pugz/Noble don't seem to take any consumer feedback in to account.

The last time a URL rappers performed in the UK it got over a million YouTube views. That's just the UK, WRITTEN battle rap fans is what will get battle rap fans to join this website.

Letsbeef is worth about £1500, somebody could buy this site for that amount of money.

I know from what people have told me, that when 8 Mile went down, battle websites were INSANE. We weren't around then, so that's the only shit we can go on.

It's more profitable, no doubt, but that's because people have FINALLY began to harness it. Popularity, as in school battles, text battles online etc. were biggest around then. Now guys like GT, KOTD and DF are finally capturing the full potential.

I don't think the CB being availible to everyone would kill forums activity for 2 reasons

A) We have a shit ton of members who battle and never post in the forums (but read them) getting them in chat would be a way to get them involved in that.

B) the people who post in the CB use the forums heavy still. the Gen talk is pretty DAMN active and increasing, TeXt lounge has stayed active, if anything activity is higher. we're not BBE . BBE was the way it was for other reasons. a site like LB can have a CB availible to all and actually get MORE forum activity.

You're maybe right, I know the sites are different but that's just a site Vs site experience thing. Getting a few guys frm the "other side" of LB would be good.

This was what hit home for me recently. I tried sniping as Master Masai, getting that record up. Last time I was properly at this was like 2007. There a whole other side to LB. Dickriders ran in FORCE. You have so much non forum activity going on with cheaters and everything. I've just noticed that the other side is also dead. No one is really dropping opens or sniping. That side is just as dead as our side. It used to be like 100 active cheaters, and 50 active respected. Now it's like 20 active respected and 30 cheaters. Pretty dead.
