Also then I remember Soc, when HE started using it. he made a thread like "I know how L.I. must feel and why more of the better heads leave this site. Because none of the voters even get the wordplay" and etc.

also I remember L.I. started the link shit, and after he did it, EVERYONE started using it as well. so I mean, no offense to everyone but what he's saying is true for most part. I don't think he's claimin' he the best, but he was the first one, if i'm not mistaken. i'd like to see proof if anyone did it before him

Correction, L.I. was the first to use FORCED wordplay. I've looked over his past battles and witnessed it for myself. And who uses FORCED wordplay now... FUCKING HERBS. And as far as links go... who gives a fuck if he was the first to use them... does anybody use them anymore? NO!!

I'll be nice and say that he paved the way for average battlers back in early '05... but fuck, the level of text on this site is way past that now and he had nothing to do with it. So, he needs to stop trying to take credit for other people's work.
