Question Text battle/forum guide (for new members)

First Of All Welcome To Letsbeef!

Most Of You Are New To Battling Period, And If Not, You're New To The Text Battle Scene.
(yes there is a difference here)
So First I'm Going To Break Down Letsbeef And Its Style.

We Randomly Get Asked This Question Every Now And Again.
How Do You Start A Text Battle?
Its Simple, The Whole Site Is User Friendly With A Little Common Sense.

At The Top Left You Have Your Introduction.

*thats An Example Of Mine*


To The Right Of That You Have
Home-- Battles-- Cyphers-- etc.

If You Hover Your Pointer Over "Battles"
A Drop Down Menu Will Appear
Then Click On "Start Text Battle"

From There You Have Options Of A Closed Or Open Battle
Closed Battles Are For Someone In Particular You Want To Battle.
If You've Spoken To Someone And They Say They Want To Battle, Click Closed
And Type Their Name Into The Box.
Open Battles Are Posted In The Open Battles Side Where Anyone Can Accept To Battle You.
Then You Have The Length You Want To Use. 8, 16, 32, or 64 lines.
That Simple.
You Can Also Accept Battles By Going To The "Battles" Drop Down Menu Clicking "View Text Battles" And Look In The Middle "Open Battles" Column.
If There Is Someones Name There, Click It. And A Verse Should Pop Up On The Next Screen.
Below That? It Says "Accept Battle"
Click it And Begin Writing.
Need To Hurry Though Because Someone Else Can Accept It Before You.

If You Get Sent A Private Battle, There Will Be A Link In You Inbox Saying Someone Sent You A Battle.
If You Don't Wish To Have To Go Through All That After Knowing Its There. you Can Simply Click "My Battles" On Your Left Hand Side "Menu" And You'll See "Private Battles" That you Haven't Responded To.


Now We Get Into Breakdown of Letsbeef Style.

As You've Probably Noticed, Alot Of People Seem To Capitalize Random Words.
You Need To Look Closer.
*IF* They Know What There Doing, The Capitalized Words Should All Rhyme. With The Other Capitalized Words.
This Is What We Refer To As Multi Syllabic Rhyming.

For Example Letsbeef Style.

I'll DROP A FELLA QUICK, Techs Will "Stretch" Him Like MOZZARELLA STICKS!!




This STYLE IS NOT A REQUIREMENT TO USE BUT IT IS FAVORED AND USED BY MOST OF LETSBEEF!!




Apostrophe's, Once Again, **IF** Used Correctly Should Be Used To Show Reference Between The Two (or More) Items Being Compared In Your Verse.

For Example.

your just "Hermione GRANGER" AT RAPPIN BITCH... so i'm "TAKING A STAB AT HIM"... and destroying 'Black Book' with a 'Fang Of A Basilisk'!! what i got in my "Chambers a Secret", so if you Banging And Blastin Then .......................

Everything In This That have Quotations Or Apostrophes Around It
All Refer To (in this case)

Harry Potter
"Chamber Of Secrets", Hermione Granger, He Stabbed A Black Book (voldemorts diary) With the Fang Of A Basilisk.

Don't Just Get Apostrophe Happy and Use Them. People Look For Connections And If You Have None Then You'll Just Look Stupid....


This STYLE IS NOT A REQUIREMENT TO USE BUT IT IS FAVORED AND USED BY MOST OF LETSBEEF!!




Since Your Here You Pretty Much Grasp The Concept Of Creating a Punchline, and Rhyming In General.
Now Here Comes The Problem With Most New Members

VOTING!!!

Why Should You Vote?
Theres Alot Of Good Writers On This Site,
I Vote Some Battles Off Of The Pure Entertainment Factor I Receive From Their Battles.
I Enjoy Reading It So I Vote.
Also, You Get Credits, Which Are Needed To Be Able To Start And Accept Battles.


Votes Should Be Explained By Your Personal Opinion On Why you Think Someone Won.
You Should Type Your Thoughts In The Box, Choose Your Winner, Rate The Verse And Submit It.
It Takes Less Than A Minute To Type A Logical Expo On Why You Thought Someone Won.


*******WHAT NOT TO DO*********
DO NOT!!! Say, GB FV VB (good battle, Fair Vote, Vote Back)
THIS IS LOOKED DOWN UPON.
You May See Many People Doing This, But They Are Wrong.

Like I Said Before
It Takes Less Than A Minute To Type A Logical Expo On Why You Thought Someone Won.

Also ACTUALLY READING BATTLES, will Help you Learn And Expand Your Vocabulary, And Maybe Spark Some Ideas On Ways To Setup Punches, And Deliver Them.

and More Times Out Of Ten, You'll Get A Explained Vote Back, If You've Taken The Short Period Of Time to Explain Your Vote On Someone Elses Battles Instead Of "FV VB"


And Since Your Reading This, You Should Click The "FORUMS" Tab At The Top
Take Time To Scroll Through Them.
LEARN THE FORUMS!

WHATS HAPPENING- In Letsbeef Now... Click It.
Read up On The Site And Everything going On.

GENERAL TALK- Go Have a Casual Conversation About Hiphop Or Whatever With Other Members.

EMCEE CENTRAL- Since I've Been Talking About Text, Cruise Through The "TEXT LOUNGE"
Here You Can Ask Questions,
Post Links To Battles/Cyphers And Ask For Feed Back
(this is the only place where your allowed to do this)
Ask For Guidance From One Of The Veterans Of The Site.

Call People Out
(NOTE:: If you call someone out. YOU GO FIRST. Dont Be A Bitch After Saying Someone Sucks. Prove yourself.)

There's Also Graphic's Thread For Those Of you That Do Graphics.
Audio Thread IF You Decide To Do Audio
And Much More.

Everything You Need To Know About Letsbeef.
Everything About Anything Really Is In The Forums.
And You'll Meet Some Cool People, And You'll Meet Some Dickheads.
But almost Everyone There Can Guide you In The Right Direction




THINGS YOU DON'T DO PERIOD!!!!

Send Battle Links Through Any Kind Of Message, Or Post On Profiles.
AND DO NOT ASK SOMEONE TO VOTE FOR YOU.

DO NOT VOTE ON BATTLES SAYING "FV VB GB" (fair vote vote back good battle)
GIVE SOME ADVICE TO OTHER BATTLES OR JUST EXPLAIN HOW YOU FELT ABOUT THE VERSES
once again.
It Takes Less Than A Minute To Type A Logical Expo On Why You Thought Someone Won.

THE LETSBEEF STYLE IS NOT REQUIRED!!!

YOU DONT HAVE TO CAP YOUR MULTI'S
BUT IF YOU DO MAKE SURE YOU ARE DOING IT CORRECTLY.



ALL IT IS.. IS PRACTICE.
SO GO BATTLE SOME PEOPLE LEARN AND GET BETTER. AND TRY TO BECOME THE BEST ON THE SITE.

THANKS FOR JOINING LETSBEEF.COM

The Staff Of Letsbeef And Mikey DeNiro.

If You Notice Any Topic That Really Effects The Text Battle Post It And I'll Add It.
keep in mind this is just the basics of battling, how, and some tips.
new members won't learn everything in one sitting.

This Thread Is For The New Members. So When You See Someone With Potential.
Shit If You Have A Random Conversation With A New Member.
Direct Them To This Thread And Teach Them Something.

Also. Leave all the Bullshit out This Thread.
