Boo Fucking who chain.

I'm not particularly interested in your snide remarks, this is a serious thread about LAs future, if your not interested fuck off elsewhere as I really couldn't care less about you.

Yeah sorry to burst your bubble, sorry you ain't a victim. Sorry your just a nobody.

And that was meant to be a site ban. Fixed.

Are we really looking at ending possibly the greatest longest running rap forum/battle site? Over what? SS is upset over a new type of tourny not meeting his standereds? If this is about members acting childish or unresponable what can we really expect from a group of younger people? I say if you can trust your mods Scotty you need new mods. And if I am not doing a good job I'm sorry I failed you. But please don't kill a place like this it's help me through some of the toughest parts of my life.

Actually, I was upset by a member calling me a liar over personal issues, different story Brenn. At that point i decided I have better uses for my time than helping run the site.

SS they're kids and I don't mod the site for them. I don't try and run things for them. I don't write for them. I don't do a damn thing for THEM. I do this for me. Cause if I don't do this I'll explode on a mother fucker in the street. I do this site because it makes me happy. If you are not on that same level(which sometimes you are I know for a fact!) I'm sorry that you let others suck your enjoyment out of this. You're still a dope writer and a great audio head. As for Scotty I hope you know what you've created is more than a site. Look at the connects you've help establish. Goose to titu to Cuba and SS! To some of the dopest Collabs I've ever seen written. H4ze has grown here. You have a legacy. I can't tell you what to do. I can only voice my humble opinion. Keep it up and running. Let me battle art for the belt. And oh yea. Syndicate!!!! Lol

Honestly tho, I'm not active on here anymore but it would be a shame to see the site go down. Bullshit aside, LA is the best battle site on the net. To much shady stuff and dudes false sense of entitlement has hurt LA. Pretty much all text based rap sites hurt in voting, feeding ..etc. There is a lack of activity on all fronts. Each side pointing the finger isnt a way to elevate anything. Taking responsibility and attempting to move forward in a positive way is. I'm sure mods and Scotty deal with a lot of shit, but that's part of running a site having all types of characters running through it. Managing it in a none dictatorship way and running the site due to your love for hip hop is whats needed. Fuck the other Bullshit, people are going to act up and it's part of it. If you wannabe a leader then you need to manage ALL types of personalities. Throwing your hands up and running away is a childish reaction.
I've enjoyed my time in LA and had fun creating VM and Empire with some cool dudes. Also I had fun creating Bloodlines I & II battle events.

As I said it would be a shame to see LA go, but it is what it is.

Brenn, you have COMPLETELY missed the point of this thread. Why I'm giving the community 6 months to clean up its act, when people cant even be bothered to read my first post, i do not fucking know.
This is not a "LA is closing down" thread. This is to point out the the site in it's current state is not viable and I am no longer interested in paying to keep a non-viable site running.


Everyone should go back and read my first post. If I have used words that are to big for you to understand, feel free to ask me to use small simple words for you.


As I say. Take the time to READ the first post, dont skim it, READ it PROPERLY. The future of LA is in YOUR hands, so it is in YOUR interest to READ the first post.

remember that movie where there's a super hero that comes at the right time and saves the day? Do you remember the movie where a super hero runs through a career of 15 years and ends it on a bitter note? I sure n the fuck Hvnt.  Though you might not like the current state of LA, you got realize what you have done for a few us. Just Saying. It's a pretty well built site with alot of potential, I think your themes really fucking old and gay but the site overall I'd badass. Easy to navigate and a big plus on the keeping it open for like longer than googlez, Facebook, Twitter and that other thing where you take pictures.  Instagram. This site used to be a like social media cuz there wasn't such a thing. Those were the days. You were able to pisses on bitches and not be worried. Those times have changed though. We all worried about getting pissed on . I sit here now waiting for the bucket of urine. Here scoots, dope multis 
Buckit of urine - fuck it Cuz your in. Dope Ness I knos. 

Scoots, as a geek to another geek. Do what your cpu wants n you'll be happy. Giggity giggity giggity  brothaman

The top battlers of LA whom built LA have moved on. The ones still around arent as interested unless there's a torney. Middle of the road writers have taken over the majority. That's the truth. Now mediocrity is the new LA standard and newbs don't have a fucking clue. There will never be a "golden era" of LA, nor any battle site community. The interest isn't there from that Next generation elevating it.

I just looked over the OM's....it's filled with shit from top to bottom. Most interesting in the battlefields is Onarolle vs Brimstone 3-4 as votes stand....which is a battle from April.

Not to mention every remark from Scotty is attempting to belittle everyone. For example CHAIN, that dude is a staple on the LA timeline...yet you'd rather ban/suspended him for speaking up? Great keep pushing dudes like that away. Guys like Point Blank, Art, fuckoff, Smooth and the list goes on are leaving LA. Why help a community when the owner of it doesn't even give a shit about it.

I honestly believe you know you've fucked up. Deep down, you had the site moving into a whole new stratosphere....now it's a shell of the hip hop battle community it was and never will be. So you're pointing the finger at us. I agree this place was once almost a socal media type site. People could talk about everything hip hop and beyond. Now you speak up slightly and there's ban threats. Russia has looser freedom of speech laws then LA. Its tragic how shit was mishandled. Now that last big push is to late.......which to answer your question Scotty, is why everyone is pretty much saying good bye to LA. Cuz they see this place is dead with petty Bullshit and egos holding it back.

In fairness, Smooth left bc he admitted to biting every verse. Moving forward, I think it's the old Batman quote. Something along the lines you stay around long enough to see yourself to become the enemy. I think that the leadership of the site is just tired tbh. Yes, tired with "us" for not contributing to "your standard". That's your right, it's your site. At the same token, this new generation of kids are different from us 90s kids. It's a shit era of kids, and we don't like it. We say read the rules and try to guide, but the disregard is discouraging. So I can see where Scott is coming from, at the same time, shit changes. If you don't want to change, then don't. It's all you. I do like the site and most people here. I guess before the site does to shit, I'll start dissing to give me one good laugh before its all said and done

^ Unfortunately this is what's wrong with this generation. It's the generation where everyone wants a trophy just for showing up. You guys want site revamps but can't seem to not spam, flame, and disrespect the forum, staff, and other community members. You want to bash Scotty, but even though all the bullshit he's was working on making changes to the site. Everyone wants all these things and the same people that whine like two year olds about it, doesn't even participate. 

As for Tre, your one of the biggest arrogant, cry baby ass motherfuckers I've ever seen. Every time I read your posts it's like watching a monkey fuck a goat. Just shut the fuck up. Does it make you feel better about yourself to come here and try to act brody bringing the site down with your snide comments? Any time you get in any bit of a dilemma where your going to be made a fool you just disappear like the bitch that you are. Then come back on at the opportunity to bash LA.

As for Scotty post you guys are acting like he's even asking for a lot. Yeah, whatever, it the thread may seem a bit dramatic, but nonetheless, this type of shit has to be said to many of you. Look at the VOTM, I just closed. There was one vote, from SS, who was a mod. Absolutely, No community effort. Yet, you guys seem to think that you do give it a community effort. If we stopped doing the OTM's completely, in a certain amount of time, someone will make a post about it where everyone will join in on ranting and claiming they can run it, blah blah... We can only do so much, you guys have to participate. If you guys don't want the shit, that's fine, it's less work for us. Don't cry about not having anything more than a simple forum with limited stuff. 
Go my Minions!

Trizzy you should stop posting. You may sound like you have a point.... Until you read THE FIRST FUCKIN POST.

fuck chain, he wanted to post a snide remark and I deleted it and banned him. Trust me he has nothing worth reading.

Anyone else "belittled" was done so because they couldn't be arsed reading the first post. If you can't manage that then I have no time for you. I have no interest arguing points that have nothing to do with THE FIRST POST.

As I have said unless you are going to read THE FIRST POST then don't bother posting and watch LAs future disappear.

We just need to do what needs to be done...and be a community....yeah we can beef and shit and battle but nobody's better then the next person. We all have a love for hip-hop and that should be the common ground to doing what needs to be done to keep this shit running. Let's lose the egos and emotions and just fucking battle vote and participate. Let's keep activity jumping....I haven't had time to vote and feed as much as I did but I personally will do more in the fields and oms. But no sense of talking about what we "will" do let's just do it....alright that's my pep talk

I think sometimes we overcomplicate the simplest things rather then just going our and doing if....if you log in at least try to contribute in some kind of way even if its one vote or whatever...i think Scotty wants to see action and not so much just talking....he's paying money to run this site so I can kinda see why he would get upset

^^^^^^......again...here's a prime example of whats wrong with LA.

Yes I left LA and told the whole site to go fuck themselves roughly 2 year ago. And..? I'm not a mod or a vet of LA like you, so why does that bother you?
In that case this thread below shows you did the same thing posting being done with LA about a year ago. October of 2014. Same issues as today was the forefront of the problems.
Here's the link:
http://www.lyricalassault.co.uk/forum/im-done-here_topic35936.html

So cut the crap of pointing fingers you hypocritical piece of shit. I didn't create this thread, nor did anyone in the LA community. Scotty brought it up to fucking discuss it....we're discussing it and you clowns get all cunty. If you don't want to hear what we have to say then you and Scotty and other mods can discuss off the forum. For Fuck sakes this place has turned into lame constant Bullshit, which is why verses and all writing has taken a back seat. .

How do you devalue others effort to push the site ahead, yet your effort is all you notice.


WAKE THE FUCK UP!!!
