The RB Battle Record Hack
 
Well .. apparently Strobe is upgrading to VB 3 .. and i know a lot of you think the RB Battle Record Hack is pointless, don't really like it and think it would be better to have just normal battles back .. so yeah, that's what this is for. I expect all the newbies to come in and defend it, but i cant make it a vet-only votes poll, lol .. so yeah.

RB Battle Hack - keep it, or get rid of it.

vote!

DNF 01-01-04 11:07 AM

i think its gay as fuck... it would be better if mods did more to keep it effective, but when theres an un explained gay or hate vote and its in the poll, i never see anything done to have it removed...

simple battles up to 5 votes, and a mod can close the battle when theres been 5 good votes for 1 person is better, just dont know how the updating of battle records would work...

but poll voting is gay...

Lokinator 01-01-04 11:19 AM

battle hack is too much hassle for what
it's worth. I say go back to what it was
originally before. We can still see when
people vote for themselves . .

PostMan 01-01-04 11:27 AM

i dunno. i say keep it........ its easier to me... but i guess all the people who bitch about losing their battles prolly would want to get rid of it...

p.s. why the hell would you wanna move backwards? battlehack =way easier. if you get a shit vote just take the loss and stop acting like little bitches.

The Jett 01-01-04 11:36 AM

keep...its easy...u get a bad vote report it...i do it all the time.....it doesnt even matter if it gets closed....just report it....its easier for the mods to fix bad votes than to close every battle

Baron Mynd 01-01-04 12:00 PM

^ They wouldnt have to close every battle .. you just leave it. Like VVV was ages ago.

C.Quip 01-01-04 12:09 PM

GO BACK TO THE OLD RB! GET RID OF IT!!!

Lokinator 01-01-04 12:12 PM

just cause things get more complicated
doesn't mean it get's easier. the old rb
battle system was simple and did work
well.

PostMan 01-01-04 12:20 PM

Roots 01-01-04 12:28 PM

RB was active loooooooooooooooong before the hack, all it's caused since it was introduced is more bother and work for the mod's.

PostMan 01-01-04 01:13 PM

what was the old way?? im a herb

KoNcEpT 01-01-04 01:14 PM

Git Rid Of It. That's Where All The D/R's/Cheaters

Verses They Just Vote 4 The Kid With The Highest
Of Post So That They Will Vote For Them.

Roots 01-01-04 01:14 PM

Since you said that vote= Fuck The Hack Or u get n00bs saying ur wack 6000 posts and u only have 2+ wins lol.

Baron Mynd 01-01-04 01:17 PM

^ Two wins ON MY GAY FUCKING BATTLE HACK RECORD.

Anyone who's been here a while knows i don't have just two wins, ive gone through LLL and SS as undefeated champ already .. battling is lame to me, i don't like it at all. But yeah, how many times have you been in RB Legends? ..

* crickets *

PostMan 01-01-04 01:20 PM

KaaS 01-01-04 03:10 PM

keep it, its simple enough

whitelightning 01-01-04 03:27 PM

keep it...it was frustratin in the beginning but it works out and makes things pretty e-z for the running of the site and shit....Keep It.

Kalvin 01-01-04 03:42 PM

What was the method before the battle hack was used? I heard that the admins or mods had to enter in the wins/losses manually?

Accelerate 01-01-04 03:43 PM

Yeah, it had to be manually done.

Kosta 01-01-04 03:53 PM

no, it wasn't entered into anything .. there were no records .. it was just fun .. getting better at writing .. the hack is really pointless .. i mean, it attracts members .. but still, it's whack because of all the other baggage it comes with (cheaters .. etc) .. i say let it go, i miss the old VVV days .. LLBL, we need to get a new skin as well .. but yeah, i vote trash the hack .. pz

Chrit 01-01-04 03:56 PM

Vote- Get rid of it

[color=blood red]^^Without The Poll System, U'd Still Have To Deal With It.......

U Said They Vote For The Person With The Highest # Of Posts In Return For The Same Thing......


Uhhhh, What Does That Shit Have To Do With The Polls? U Could Always Send A Link Of Your Battle To The Mods & Have Them Scope It Out....

Without The Polls, Shit'll Be The Same......

Except Records Would Have To Be Kept Manually.....







Soooooooo, Who Wants To Keep Updatin' Records?










It Was Hard Enough Doin' It Manually Each Week For 50 People In The LLBL....


Picture Doin' It For A Couple HUNDRED OR THOUSAND! Ahahaha....

To Do That Shit With The Hack Still Installed I Think Admins Would Have To Make The Mods Supermods.....Cause I Don't Think Battle Board Mods Have That Type Of Power (Might Be Able To Be Given To Them Though)......

But Manually? Who Knows If They'll Just Do Their Job Or Take Vengeance On People Who They Dislike & Fuck Up Their Recs?

There's TOO MANY PEOPLE ON THIS SITE For Manual Updatin'.....

So I Say Keep The Polls & U Bitches Start Postin' Links To Your Battle In "Investigated Reports" If U Suspect DR's.....

Stop Whinin' About The Polls.....Shit'd Be The Same Without 'Em......

Chrit 01-01-04 04:04 PM

I say get rid of records totally...

They mean nothing

Aisle Phive 01-01-04 04:06 PM

Vote- Keep It

Yes, it attracts a lot of herbs and other DRs. But its so much easier for mods, a battle record is kinda cool. It can be herbish, but its very convenient. If the mods harshen up on the DR voters and all of FL then it won't be as bad. The mods are getting more strict, but I still think DR's should be disposed of. 90 percent of the site are n00bies and herbs. But I remember how cool the battle record was when I started out, I think it'd be fair to the n00bs to keep it. It attracts new members as well. I don't exactly care for the poll but I think FL enjoys it. Once in a while somebody will emerge from FL not caring about battle records, just getting better. Like I said, it's alot easier for mods as well. If we had no polls then everybody would cry about non-explained votes and it would be crazy. We would need more FL mods, I just think it's alot easier. It's fun to laugh at the kids with the big records that are nowhere near a vet, but FL kids look up to them. Its good shit, my opinion stands, it should stay.

Token 01-01-04 04:12 PM

This has been argued about many a times before.

The battle hack is what makes Rb unique from the other sites and keeps it neat a tidy.. If we didn't have it people would put their records in their sigs and lie and such. It would make Front Lines an even bigger mess and harder work for mods. Plus, it attracts members to the site.

Getting rid of it would be very foolish.

High Class 01-01-04 04:13 PM

It makes things easier, thats why I like it...
But the nice records could be off of all newbs...
So, do what you want. I like it, but I dont...

C-Section 01-01-04 05:45 PM

i dont care. im not battling anymore.

my battle under my alias in front lines has been open for 3 days. thats gay. it is true frontlines are wack.

Chrit 01-01-04 06:17 PM

Hence me retired now

High Class 01-01-04 06:21 PM

^ what about the 100 wins hommie? You know you can get it... ^

Emerge 01-01-04 08:59 PM

the hack should just stay...no matter what herbs will keep their wins in their sig anyway...plus it attracts new members and when they finally figure out that its herbish to have wins and who you beat in their sig, and get tired of batting....they will leak into the leagues and keep them going smooth and well

RB is unique for having it and either way all it would do is cause more confusion and blah...

might as well just keep it

MethodZ 01-01-04 09:22 PM

keep it.....its maybe pointlesss but it seperates us from the other sites that dont and makes us doper :)

inspire 01-01-04 09:23 PM

Fucka record. .

Maybe keep a page or something.. I don't battle really anyways

Transmogrify 01-01-04 09:29 PM

Get rid of them they're gay. If there's no record next to your name no ones gonna care how many times they lose. Besides It's gay

B-Kast 01-01-04 09:59 PM

I say keep it, but make it so the wins don't go on your record automatically, make it so like the old system USE polls, but when its donen the mod has to go over it and check there are no bull-shit votes. Then once a mod checks over it he updates the persons record.
That way we can still have records, and eliminate dick-ryding...
May be a bit mroe work for mods, but im sure alot of people are willin to put in work to make it better

Born To Kill 01-02-04 11:38 AM

It needs to be kept...

Like a few peeps have already said...

It's what makes RB so unique (and in my opinion) better than all the other websites.

But, if ya go the other way...

I'm still keeping a battle record...

But I'm deleting about half the losses for ridin and takin 3 days to come up with a verse...

See, it works both ways.
(with irony included)

Peace
