News & Announcements: New rule regarding use of names...

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Topic Ratings Printable Version Translate Topic

   And now, a short announcement on the use of members names on the website:

Surnames are off limits. Don't use members surnames on the site, even if they are stupid enough to put them on here themselves.

In other words, if a newbie rocks up and says "Hey guys, my name's Bobby Pratchet and I'm super psyched about this battle gig"...you can diss him as Bobby, but NOT as Bobby Pratchet or Pratchet.

We now open the floor to welcome all comments, whether supportive, irrelevant, or somewhere in between.

	I know what this is all about...i don't agree personally but its not the biggest thing in the world ...but if the person hasn't put their name on here, and someone else has, any post including the name should be deleted and the person who posted should be punished really... I remember You made a thread saying not to use trizzy's real name, but its been used since...and is still on here. Edit: ah i see what you did..its not on here technically

	So no one can ever diss me again??? cause Brenn is part of my surname? Or can we diss the surname as long as we don't diss a full name?

	It's not specificity about Trizzy, it's about the direction of the site. The is meant to be a place for fun, but people go to far and fuck it up for everyone else.

	No this site was meant to be a battle site. And yall are turning pussy. I honestly never had a problem with the rules here until this one. Pratchet rhymes with so many good words. Would be great for a diss. This is a BATTLE site. Ya'll can't seriously turn this into nerf guns. These are supposed to be REAL shooters. my name is ZACH SERVIS. you can make so many good punchlines with that. I WANT them to be creative and try. You're taking out an element of battling that made hip hop what it is, being personal. being brutal. Ya'll need to quit being so politically correct, ive been silent long enough but this is bullshit.

	If it's part of your user name then it's kosher. This isn't a political move...this is respecting people's right to privacy. Majority of the user base are not (and never intend to be) serious musicians...hence they deserve to not have their name linked to LA on google if they so chose. The easiest way for us to implement that is to ban the use of surnames, period, so there's no ambiguity. It isn't that complex.
