<div class="quote_poster">Quoting 44Thrilla:</div><div class="quote_post">...because it's a competition. Criticism is part of the judging process.</div> I totally agree, but some of the members simply took it to a whole new level. Criticism and making fun of someone are too different things. Of course this would be a little more serious if it wasn't on a message board. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">So if that guideline is really taken that literally, then freestyle battles would have been forbidden? After all, all you do in a battle is try to humuliate the other person. I'm sure Umair and vcwannabe's moms are offended. So they should be banned?</div> Was Umair complaining about the lyrics in battles against him? No. They knew they make fun of each other in the battles and they agreed to it, but they didn't agree to get made fun of while being judged or after it.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting 44Thrilla:</div><div class="quote_post">...because it's a competition. Criticism is part of the judging process.</div> the judging process is over bro. So why still criticize and make fun? <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Locke:</div><div class="quote_post">You must not watch American Idol. Simon Cowell gets paid millions to say what we're saying.</div> And Junoon here gets paid for that?
Listen Umair. I know this isnt completely your fault, but if this continues, I suggest you stop battling. vcwannabe doesnt have any problems with this, it seems like you are the only one. I cant control what people say, so if it is really bothering you then I suggest you not respond to any of the jokes, and quit battling.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Umair15:</div><div class="quote_post">the judging process is over bro. So why still criticize and make fun? And Junoon here gets paid for that?</div> Junoon doesn't get paid. My point was that if Fox can pay Cowell that much money to criticize its contestants for entertainment sakes, why can't we do the same thing? I'm pretty sure more than a few people are entertained by this. This thread is in the Make Me Laugh section and what we're doing is making sure people laugh. How else would this thread have this many views? You guys obviously should have expected comments when you agreed to battle. Freedom of speech... NbaBaller, when they asked for us to vote, they pretty much gave us the freedom to criticize. In the actual rap battles, we had to post reasons why we thought someone won. Same thing here kid.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting azn_iverson:</div><div class="quote_post">You guys shouldn't use age as an excuse. I'm only 13 (almost 14), and I rap better than both of you combined LOL!</div> BURN!
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Umair15:</div><div class="quote_post">I dont really have a problem with it until everyone starts talking sh*t . Especially Junoon</div> Okay. Pull out you nine and pop that fellow "Paki"'s ass. Seriously, you need counselling.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Umair15:</div><div class="quote_post">I dont really have a problem with it until everyone starts talking sh*t . Especially Junoon</div> Just ignore it Umair. Some of the stuff may piss you off, but just practice and work harder and you'll get better. A mod should close this thread.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Umair15:</div><div class="quote_post">the judging process is over bro. </div>Oh, really? Who won?
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Umair15:</div><div class="quote_post">I dont really have a problem with it until everyone starts talking sh*t . Especially Junoon</div> Like I said, if you have a problem, then don't respond. From experiences in other threads, the more you comment on the situation, the worse it gets. So if it actually bothers you, then please don't respond. Ok? It'll stop if you just ignore it

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Kidd:</div><div class="quote_post">Ok no one seems to agree with me, then I guess I'm wrong.</div> I agree with you, it's part of the rules. I guess adims aren't as strcit about them.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Kidd:</div><div class="quote_post">Well I think if the Admins got involved, then all the rap battles would be banned.</div> Yeah I dont want that to happen.

I have no problem banning rap battles at JBB if you guys can't handle them.
