New Feature: Rapperz
Announcing the latest hack to be added to Rapbattles Community: Rapperz! This is a modified version of Petz. In Petz, you own a virtual pet, in which you feed it, keep it happy, play with it, etc... Since this is a rap board, we are guessing you don't care about a dinky dog or cat, so we have Rapperz. It should probably be named Gangstaz since your virtual rapper is more about doing drugs and battling other thugs on the streets.. but it was easier to find pictures of hip hop artists than random gangsters.
In the Rapperz world, everything revolves around beefing up your guy (or girl) by earning money and buying items, whether to make him stronger, faster, healthier. To earn money, you have to participate on the forum by posting and voting on battles. Posting in the following forums will earn you money: Hip Hop Talk Album Reviews Cypher Open Mic Poetic Scriptures Songs Rhythmic Convergence Audio Assistance Currently, each new thread you create will earn you $10. Each reply you make will earn you $5. Refer someone to RB Community and you will earn $50. Poll in a battle and you will earn $25. However, keep in mind that freeposting or polls with inadequate explanations will result in money being deducted from your wallet and you will lose more than you had gained when we have to remove a vote or post. Other details include those people who have created a rapper will have the image of their rapper appear below their name on their posts. You can click on this image and then be able to chill with the rapper to increase happiness or taunt him to decrease it. When you feel your rapper is strong enough, you can enter The Streets, where you can battle other members and win more money. Included is also a store where you can spend money to change how your username looks in your posts. The store, streets, and shops can be found in the navigation bar at the top of the page between the Faq and the Calendar. Who is the baddest rapper on the site? Go into your Usercp menu and create your own rapper and find out. |
dope feature strobe. i think its gunna be hot
a possible prob mite be that it could draw people away from rapping and jus concentrate on the rapperz |
yea that seems strtaight. But i think Kingz might have a point
|
This seems like alotov fun/adds a little more to the site
|
I agree with kingz peps might focus more on that then on tha battles and other forums
|
I think its hott.. people wont keep away from rapping if they have a virtual pet... unless they are THAT white.
|
Yo lol i guess im the first to win a battle in that Rapperz thing... YAYYY haha.. i didnt really like it that much... but w/e its still a good idea...
King does have a point... though the way the money thing was introduced, you basically helped out the forum, because more people will post... |
nah i dont think that will affect the activity in front lines.....hot idea strobe...props...
|
yo i reckon it cud affect shit in the front lines but still it is a hot idea that will get ppl to post and vote more
|

|
Damn, thats real tight Strobe, fa sho.
|

|
how do u play with ur rapper?????????????????????????
|
in between FAQ and Calender they have a section called "Rapperz". Click that. lol at "the Streetz". But props to Strobe. this is a HOT feature.
|
yo, I still don't understand what all the skills are used for. Do we get to fight other people's rapperz or something?
|
In theory, the hack should not decrease activity from other parts of the site since people are only able to Chill and Taunt the rappers 25 times per day. In the battles, you have to wait for your opponent to make their move after you make yours and they have 24 hours to make it or they will lose their turn. So unless you are battling people who are online, the chances of someone spending hours at a time battling is pretty small. I would rather the battle moves be automated without user interaction, but oh well. On the other hand, it should encourage people to post more in the listed forums and also vote on battles as they get the most money for voting.

I have changed the display to show a little more detail next to your rapper's picture. You can also find out more info by clicking on Inventory in the Usercp or clicking to see your member profile. You can buy stuff in the stores which can be found in the Rapperz pulldown menu in the navigation bar at the top. |

Quote:
Click on the picture of your rapper and in the lower left corner there is a link labeled "Chill". Quote:
It is currently set so that they need to make a move in 24 hours or they lose their turn. This can be changed to 1 hour if there are enough requests for it. Quote:
When you have money, go into the Item Shops link under the Rapperz menu at the top of the page and select the 7-Eleven to buy food. |
like a hotdog of the roller? i got biggie, i bet he eats more than em. how much is this fatass gonna cost me???
|
^ You currently only have 2% hunger. The moldy bread will satisfy 5%
|
please change it and who ever owns ill hurry the fuck up
i also think u should b able 2 buy stuff and check stats when ur in a battle |
strobe, im trying to pm you, how do i do that, u always appear offline.
|
i no im annoying butum if u buy stuff 2 raise ur rapperz strength and stuff like that does it stay like that 4 ever or does it go away during a certain amount of time
|
yo, where is the "chill" button? I can't find it.
|
^ Chill link is at the bottom left of the screen below your rapper's info screen.

This I have no real idea. Some of the items are equipable, like guns and protection, which I assume means that you can wear/use it until you resell it back to the store. Other items like food and drugs are used once. Someone will have to try them out and let us know I guess Quote:
Just send a pm and I usually get to it in less than 24 hours |
yo, if we give you pics of other rappers, could we use them? or are these the only people we can use?
|
sorry to be annoyin', but I don't see the "Chill" button. but it really doesn't matter thant much.
|
Post a list of the rappers you would like to see and we'll look at having them added
