How would you market LB?

Its true that one can promote the site so much more from the site's social media account than on their own. My suggestion to Eth that he doesn't have to have access to LB accounts in order to promote LB on social media was simply to point out the fact that someone who truly wants to help can do so no matter what capacity or access they are given. I started a YouTube channel on behalf of LB before I was given access to any of LB's accounts. I'm not convinced Eth is someone who truly wants to help or who just wants to complain.
I'm not a site owner, and everything I do on behalf of the site is totally voluntary just like any other mod.
If anyone wants to help on our social media platforms and you have experience on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc, let me know and I will do my best to try to get you access. It won't be up to me but rather up to the site owners. This is what I tried to do for Eth years ago and it wasn't up to me that they rejected giving him access. Considering he was constantly antagonizing them in the forums, I don't blame them.
But bottom line is if anyone truly wants to help, let me know and I'll try to make it happen.

You argue that you've done more for the social media of LB despite denying access to the social media of LB to anyone else. Great achievement.

Mate just have a gander at the LB's Twitter. Believe it or not, but autoposts from Facebook with links and nothing else don't scream "I care about this platform, follow me". You have to actually put in work and/or time. Hell even if you don't want to do either of those things, just spend half an hour scheduling tasks in Buffer and it'll do it for you.

Also, what the fuck is Pugz doing? I just went onto the Instagram page where they're uploading photos of several people in LB t-shirts with an LB and hiphopbling banner in the background. Who the fuck are these people? Where the fuck are they on Letsbeef? Legit it's weird as fuck to me that there's a punch of dudes wearing LB t shirts that haven't even signed up. Pugz isn't active either. What the fuck are they even promoting? If none of them come on the site, what is the actual brand that they are promoting? Did LB become a clothing label and no one gave us a shout about it? Fucking bizarre.

For the umpteenth time... IT. IS. NOT. UP. TO. ME. TO. ACCEPT. OR. DENY. ANYONE. ACCESS. TO. LB'S. SOCIAL. PLATFORMS.
I don't own any of those accounts and currently only have access to the Facebook. I'm an admin there but i would still ask Pugz before adding anyone because its not my shit. At that point, it would be up to him whether you're added or not. I'm not as active on Facebook as WE should be. I actually have a life outside of LB (believe it or not..lol) and cannot afford to spend as much time promoting on social media as WE should be. Ironically, I have never seen you or anyone else badgering Mindless, or RULE, or Row or anyone else that has been a non-owner site admin about how many hours they should be spending on social media platforms or how it all of a sudden becomes a part of their voluntary job description as a site admin.
I'm probably the last person you should be accusing of not doing anything for LB social media. When I started the LB magazine site (WordPress) and we were posting articles meant for sharing on social media, how many articles did you share or contributed to? I'm sure you may have a lot to say about how it wasn't perfect, but did you actually do anything to help? I can't answer any of your questions about what's being posted on Twitter because I don't run the LB Twitter. But if you TRULY want to help, I'm sure you can find a way to in spite of not having access to any of the accounts.

Okay then. You're still bragging about doing the most social media work whilst being the golden child who is the only one actually allowed the keys to the prestigious castle.

You've never seen me badgering RULE? Lol

I was permabanned because "insert reason here" when you made the WordPress, which again is hardly an intelligent idea on a dead site. You need to understand how social media works before bragging about your contributions. No one joined because of your WordPress, so who cares?

If you "truly want to help". I love how I'll put in shit loads of work for several months, and if I stop for 6 months I'm back to "never contributing".

NOBLE I'm co-running the most active crew on the site, am a large part of the most posted in thread that's been posted in months, am encouraging multiple battles of significant quality and have a hand in helping develop the next generation of battlers on the site. The fuck are you doing? Posting a Facebook message of Pugz in a tshirt?

Not about how much time he spends or doesn't spend promoting LB on Twitter.

Right. I'm sure if you hadn't been permabanned, you would've contributed LOTS rather than stand on the sideline and call it "unintelligent" among other things ������.

You're a leader in the most active crew atm, so that means you get credit for all those guys' activities or the fact they're even active? That's great that you're doing all that. Keep doing it. I'd rather not try to belittle your contributions the way you try to belittle mine, so I'll just leave it at that. As far as this social media thing though, do you think there's a way you can help us establish more of a presence? Are you willing to help?

You know I was permabanned a week after being a mod (who matched you in votes for staff of the year whilst banned) and running the topical tournament right? In 2013 I did more for LB than you've done in total.

Its about creating activity. I, along with the other participating members of the site (so, not you) do for sure deserve credit because it's US keeping LB alive.

So you're not willing to help on the social media front? You just wanted to point out how bad it is and what other people aren't doing to help?
You didn't match me in votes for staff member of the year, you weren't banned a week after being a mod and you didnt do more than I did for LB in total. This back and forth is pretty lame and I'm tired of responding to your lies. I was hoping to turn this conversation into a commitment from you to help out with social media since you apparently care about it so much, but that doesn't seem likely so I will no longer respond to you after this. Carry on.

Let's be honest, nothing can be done to revive the site at this point.

The biggest opportunity was missed back when Shady Records did this whole Total Slaughter thingy, which brought battle rap a whole new amount of attention.

What did we do? We tried to make our battle league. Yea, we had a monopoly and said fuck that let's go and compete with KOTD (the league that brings in Drake in attendance...ye).

Now don't get me wrong, these live battles from LB people did bring in some traffic, but the product has been neglected for so long that none of these dude's that signed up stuck around. Let's face it, the site is to complicated for the average idiot to figure out, features where broken, and all these new people joined a community that was not fucked to drop 8 lines in a textbox due to being upset with management for so long.

Fun fact, I remember speaking with Pugz during that time and I told him 'yo, what about Conceited?', you know, the LB guy who was popping like mad at the time due to being involved with Nick Cannon and Co.? Apparently, Pugz spoke to him and Conceited agreed to promote the site for 2k (wearing an LB T-shirt in his next battle etc.) but i guess this never happened either.

So, since we missed the opportunity then to produce some loyal members (like the site had always done,produce loyal members), there is no way in doing it now. The hype for battle rap ain't the same and people would rather spend their free time playing Fortnight rather than hang out with 10 nerds

That's great, and all. How about this time trying to humor the hypothetical. How would you market LB?
